The low initials continue with Bullet Raja after the poor starts last week of Singh Saab The Great and Gori Tere Pyaar Mein. Bullet Raja has opened to around 25-30% collections, both multiplexes and single screens are in the same range.
The film has a better release than last week’s two releases with more shows at multiplexes but will have to depend on word of mouth.
The opening in places like Lucknow and Kanpur where it has potential to do better due to local content was also not up to the mark. The film probably has better chances in UP but even there wull have to show a quick jump in collections.

BO update: Mixed start for ‘Bullett Raja’
By Taran Adarsh, November 29, 2013 – 13:33 IST
The Saif Ali Khan – Sonakshi Sinha starrer BULLETT RAJA, which is set in North India, was expected to open well in North circuits, especially in centres of U.P. While the opening shows of the film were quite good in certain parts of U.P., the general opening ranged from average to below average in several circuits. The occupancy was lower in Mumbai, but, of late, the opening shows of several films, including last week releases, were below the mark, but picked up during the course of the day, depending on the merits of the film.
BULLETT RAJA was never expected to start with a bang thanks to the lack of popular soundtrack. However, the film has the potential to strike a chord and like most Tigmanshu Dhulia movies, it is expected to gather momentum by late noon/evening shows.
Meanwhile, last week’s releases, GORI TERE PYAAR MEIN! and SINGH SAAB THE GREAT, have been sidelined at major plexes, but GOLIYON KI RAASLEELA RAM-LEELA continues to perform well and is expected to be the second choice of moviegoers this weekend, after BULLETT RAJA.

Bullet Raja First Day Business
Bullet Raja could not make much impact on day one as it grossed around 6.50 crore nett. The film had fair collections in UP and Rajasthan but could not do much elsewhere. Mumbai circuit was dull with collections just a little higher than Delhi/UP when normally it should be 50% higher.
The film did not perform at multiplexes as the collections were not upto the mark for its release, single screens were also below par apart from some cities in UP and Rajasthan.
The film will find it tough going over the weekend and with normal trending weekend trending it may just go a little over 20 crore nett. To have a respectable weekend figure the film needs good growth on Saturday and Sunday.

The film has now collected around 13 crore nett in two days with both Friday and Saturday contributing 6.50 crore nett each. The film had to show a 20-30% jump on Saturday if it was to have a chance at the box office.
Sunday will show an improvement in collections but the fate of the film is already sealed as it has under performed over the first two days.

Mumbai circuit also underperformed but that was expected as it was a film based on crime in UP which has few few takers in Mumbai just like film on the Mumbai underworld have few takers in the North. The weekend breakdown was as follows.
Friday – 6.50 crore nett
Saturday – 6.50 crore nett
Sunday – 7.50 crore nett
TOTAL – 20.50 crore nett

Bullet Raja Monday Collections
Tuesday 3rd December 2013 11.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Bullet Raja dropped on Monday as it collected around 3.25 crore nett taking its total to 24.50 crore nett. The film held up best in Delhi/UP with collections around 85-90 lakhs. It was the only circuit to drop less than 50% and collections in Delhi/UP were higher than Mumbai.
The first week should finish in the 31 crore nett range and not likely to add much more. The domination of Goiyon Ki Raasleela Ram Leela in the Gujarat area has affected Bullet Raja as Goiyon Ki Raasleela Ram Leela had better collections in Gujarat on Sunday and Monday despite being in its third week.
Bullet Raja will probably wrap up in the 35 crore nett region for lifetime collections.

Bullet Raja Has Poor First Week
Friday 6th December 2013 10.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Bullet Raja had a poor first week collecting around 31 crore nett. Delhi/UP and Rajasthan had the best collections. These two circuits were not good or even average but compared to the dull collections in the rest of the country, the collections in Delhi/UP and Rajasthan were respectable.
A 30 crore nett total is what is expected from a film like Bullet Raja over the weekend not the week. This year has seen so many small films like Aashiqui 2, Shuddh Desi Romance and Chasme Bhaddoor go over 30 crore nett for in the first week so a much higher total is expected of a 55-60 crore film like Bullet Raja.
The weekday collections were steady at a some stations in Delhi/NCR and UP and that is where the film will have a major chunk of its week two collections coming from.
