Dishoom Eighth Day Business

Dishoom has had a fair hold on its Friday with collections around 2.25-2.50 crore nett. There is a drop from the first day but if we compare with thursday the collections are down 20% only which is a good result for the film. The film has caught up to Baaghi despite having a lower open as the collections every day in week one were less than Baaghi but on day eight the film has managed to edge past the Baaghi numbers so it should manage to get a better second week than that film if the big growth comes over the weekend. the total collections of the film now are 55 crore nett plus. The film is facing a 77% drop from day one but that percentage should go down as Saturday and Sunday show better growth than the first weekend.

The growth on Saturday becomes extra important as it will not get many screens next week due to the clash between Mohenjo Daro and Rustom so basically has this week to do the whatever business it can. The weekend can go to around 10 crore nett if real growth comes over the weekend. The poor response to all the films outside Suicide Squad has helped its cause on day eight.

The Hollywood release Suicide Squad which was the only film to get some sort of initial yesterday did well on its opening day collecting around 3 crore nett. There was not much of a jump in the evening so it may not be a huge growth film but still day one is decent. The film has not been dubbed and the collections have all come from the English version and that is what it makes a pretty good first day figure. the other Hollywood release Jason Bourne which also had a dubbed version fared poorly with around 1.50 crore nett.
