Tiger Zinda Hai had an excellent hold on its second Friday with collections in the 11.25-11.50 crore nett range which takes the film to over 217 crore nett in eight days and has already crossed likes of Kick and Chennai Express in just eight days. it took seven days to beat Golmaal again. The second Friday confirms the film is set for a long run and business of over 300 crore nett.

There is still the Xmas / New Year period on which is beneficial for box office and this will remain until Tuesday when collections could come down a little but even then it has an open field till the last week of Jan with hardly any competition. The eight day figures Tiger Zinda Hai is follows.

But the circuit figures do not tell the whole story as its been about mass penetration that Tiger Zinda Hai has got these numbers. If we take the fifteen biggest cities which are Mumbai / Thane, Delhi / NCR, Kolkata, Pune, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Surat, Lucknow, Chandigarh, Indore, Ludhiana and Nagpur for potential collections then Tiger Zinda Hai is at 102 crore nett apprx and Dangal is at 111 crore nett apprx. Tiger Zinda Hai not only covers this 9 crore gap but goes up 14 crore nett from the smaller A centres, B centres and C centres. These centres have lower collecting theaters so it becomes a huge task to cover the ground but not only has it covered but gone ahead by a margin. This has happened due to the action factor with the help of the mass following of Salman Khan. The other action film to be released on Xmas was Dhoom 3 and if we take the top fifteen cities for that it had 53% in the big cities against 49% for Tiger Zinda Hai. Dangal is 57%.

The footfalls are still to be tabulated but despite Tiger Zinda Hai having higher rates at major chains across the country compared to Dangal, a glance at figures from circuits like Bihar and Odisha which have very low ticket rates indicate that the footfalls could also be ahead for the first week.

Bahubali - The Conclusion has not been put into the comparison as that film is a genuine great and historic film so is above comparison at the moment.
