Lootera And Policegiri Start Slowly

Lootera and Policegiri both started slowly at the box office with Lootera recording collections of 30-35% at metro multiplexes but lower elsewhere while Policegiri was awful at multiplexes on its limited release though single screens recorded better collections of around 30%.
A start like this for Policegiri means its an uphill struggle because when a film in the action genre does not open it is a lost cause most of the time.
Lootera was never expected to open and will depend on what sort of growth it shows over the weekend but like Raanjhanaa it will have a lot of work to do as the budget is on the higher side looking at the type of film it is and a male lead whose previous films have not done that well at the box office which makes an it even harder for the film as far as opening morning collections are concerned.

B.O. update: ‘Lootera’, ‘Policegiri’ start slow!
By Taran Adarsh, July 5, 2013 – 12:07 IST
Both, LOOTERA and POLICEGIRI had a slow start in the morning shows. While LOOTERA is expected to dominate the multiplexes, POLICEGIRI is targeted at single screens and is expected to fare better there. The morning shows of these two releases were most ordinary, but it all depends on the evening and night shows these days. If the biz shoots upwards, the films would be able to put up good numbers on Day 1.

Just came back from Lootera. Both the lead actors have given their career best performance so far. Cinematography is top notch! Also the climax gave me goosebumps. Would really like it to do well!!
Policegiri First Day Business
Friday 6th July 2013 10.30 IST

Policegiri fared poorly on its first day with collections around the 2.50 crore nett mark. The collections at multiplexes were very bad especially the metros, Dehi city had ridiculously low collections.
The film did fare better in places like UP, Bihar, CPCI and Rajasthan as these areas collected better than Lootera which was very low in these areas. But Policegiri had to put up excellent numbers in these mass belts to get even reasonable day one figures as urban centres so low.
Policegiri has had such a low start that its impossible for the film to score at the box office unless there is some sort of miracle 300% jump on Saturday.

Lootera First Day Business
Friday 6th July 2013 11.30 IST

Lootera had below the mark collections with first day likely to come out in the 4.25-4.50 crore nett region. the film fared better in the metros with mass belts having very low collections.
The collections are similar to Ranveer Singh’s last film Ladies vs Ricky Bahl which was released 18 months back but Lootera is a much bigger film than that film.
The best collections have come in West Bengal as the film is set there but the Central belt has low collections and North also has not collected outside the Delhi/NCR region. The film will have to show very strong growth to come out with even reasonable weekend figures.

Lootera Shows Strength On Saturday Policegiri Falters
Saturday 7th July 2013 10.30 IST

Lootera showed strength at multiplexes on Saturday with good jumps all over. The film had a jump in collections of around 30% with Saturday business being around 5.50 crore nett. Multiplexes across the country showed healthy gains.
The two day business is around 9.75 crore nett which is not that good but the film has a good upward which gives it a chance depending on what happens over the week.
Policegiri struggled on Saturday as collections were down on a little bit as it collected around 2.50 crore nett as against the 2.75 crore nett on Friday. The film is sure to have sub 10 crore nett weekend collections which is a very poor result for the film.

Lootera Holds Promise For The Weekdays
Monday 8th July 2013 09.30 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Lootera had below the mark collections for the weekend of around 16 crore but the trend was good and the film holds promise for the weekdays. The first day was around 4.25 crore nett and Saturday was 5.50 crore while Sunday collected around 6.25 crore nett.
The film will be looking to hold well over the weekdays and get over 25 crore nett. Lootera suffered from a poor start so even though it picked up well the low starting point kept the weekend figures on the lower side.
The best business for the film came in West Bengal due to the local flavour. It collected around 1 crore nett in West Bengal which made West Bengal the fourth highest collecting circuit for the film when normally it is 7th or 8th.

Policegiri Fails In Mass Belts
Monday 8th July 2013 10.30 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Policegiri was never going to do well at multiplexes due to limited release and no awareness for the film due to lack of promotion but the film also failed at single screens in mass belts.
The collections in UP, Bihar, CPCI, Rajasthan and Nizam were much better than the bigger circuits but still low. The collections in Delhi city, East Punjab and Mysore were just awful. If the film had scored at the multiplexes of the smaller cities it could have yielded better results but the collections were mainly fromthe single screens.
The film collected around 8.25 crore nett over the weekend which is poor return for such a film. Policegiri is a heavy loser despite a limited P&A spend.

Lootera Disappoints On Monday
Monday 9th July 2012 10.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Lootera disappointed on Monday with collections in the 2.25 crore nett range. The film had shown good growth over the weekend which suggested a good run for the film but collections on Monday came down more than they should have.
The collections are 47% down from Friday which is okay but the Friday collection was low and considering Sunday got to 6.25 crore the film should have done better on Monday. The film got on Monday as it had a higher ratio of collections on the weekend from premium multiplexes and these fall more on Monday.
The film will now find it hard at the box office and at best it could emerge an average fare.

Downward Trend Continues For Lootera
Wednesday 10th July 2013 10.30 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Lootera has failed to make a mark at the box office as Tuesday recorded dull collections of 1.75 crore nett which is 20% down from Monday. A film like Lootera is never likely to open well and basically good weekday business becomes a must.
The film had a drop on Monday but even then if Tuesday can be in the range of Monday then the film has a chance but here Tuesday saw another drop and the film has just not performed well on the weekdays. Films like Raanjhanaa and Fukrey which were also dependent on weekday business managed similar business on Monday and Tuesday.
The film is looking to close the week at 23 crore nett and is unlikely to collect much thereafter.
