M.S. Dhoni - The Untold Story had another excellent day as it collected close to 19 crore nett for its Hindi version. There is a drop from day one but it is minor and would only be an issue if the film had lower collections. The film is doing very well across India and is already a HIT film with potential to go higher. The weekend of the film is on course to beat films like Housefull 3 and Rustom by a big margin. Of course it will be below Sultan but that was in a different league The first two day business of M.S. Dhoni - The Untold Story is as follows
Friday - 20,00,00,000
Saturday - 18,75,00,000 apprx
TOTAL - 38,75,00,000
The very earthy and Indian feel of the theatrical did give the film the potential to be the Tanu Weds Manu Returns of the year and it may happen depending on what the weekdays bring. That film was driven by North India as it was set there, here it will be other circuits driving the film. Obviously the profits will not be like Tanu Weds Manu Returns due to high costs here but like that film it can be a big grosser without face value which happens rarely.
