R… Rajkumar had a pretty good start as many places opened well with others being below the mark. The film opened to 50% collections in Gujarat, Maharashtra, CP Berar and Rajasthan though collections in Delhi and Punjab were in the 30% region.
The opening trend of the film was very similar to Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram – Leela though the collections were at much lower levels. Like that film Western and Central India is better with North India lagging. The overall opening is around 40%.
The film should do well in places like Gujarat and Rajasthan but reports will be the key for all India business as the film has not opened strongly across the board.

BO update: ‘R… Rajkumar’ starts well!
By Taran Adarsh, December 6, 2013 – 13:04 IST
R… RAJKUMAR, which is yet another masala entertainer to release this year, has opened well with 50% to 60% occupancy in several circuits, especially the mass-dominated circuits, while the start was around 30% to 40% in few circuits as well. However, considering the fact that film business had hit a rough patch since last two weeks, the positive start of the film has come as a respite for the industry.
What has contributed to the robust start at the ticket window is its musical score, with a couple of tracks getting hugely popular. Also, the aggressive promotion seems to have done the trick. Most importantly, Prabhu Dheva’s brand as a director has also been crucial in driving the audiences to theatres, thereby witnessing ample footfalls in the initial shows. Of course, what will play a crucial role in the film’s overall business is the word of mouth, which will also decide how it fares over the weekend.
The second release, CLUB 60, has opened on a rather bleak note. The film was never expected to start with a bang in the first place and is dependent on word of mouth completely.

R… Rajkumar Has Good First Day
Saturday 7th December 2013 11.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
R… Rajkumar had good opening day collections of around 8.75-9 crore as per early estimates. The film collected very well in some circuits like Mumbai, CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan, Bihar and Nizam while some like Delhi/UP, East Punjab and Mysore under performed. The collections in single screens were excellent and far far ahead of any Shahid Kapoor starrer.
The overall opening is also the highest for any Shahid Kapoor starrer beating the 6.75 crore of Mausam released in 2011. A good jump in business on Saturday in Delhi city and East Punjab will help the cause of the film as the other major all India contributor Mumbai is doing well but North India also has to come on board for good final result.
The film will find it tough to show growth on Saturday as it is a good opening but it should put up a good number on Sunday and a good healthy weekend.

R… Rajkumar Has Decent Saturday
Sunday 7th December 2013 14.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
R… Rajkumar had a decent Saturday with collections dropping a little. The collections dropped around 25-50 lakhs nett. The territories which did not do well on day one were up slightly while circuits that opened well were down. The collections were around 8.25-8.50 crore nett on Saturday giving it a total of 17 crore nett in two days.
The film did show an uptrend in multiplexes in the North but not the sort that suggests the film will score in the North. In the final tally the film will do decent business in Mumbai, CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan, Nizam and Bihar with other circuits being below the mark.
The film will not be a huge hit but won’t flop either. On a normal trend for the week the film is looking an average fare, if Monday can sustain well and put up a total around 5 crore nett then it will emerge better than average.

R… Rajkumar Has Decent Weekend
Monday 9th December 2013 10.00 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
R… Rajkumar had a decent weekend of around 27.50 crore nett on the strength of business of single screens. The business at multiplexes was average to dull depending on the area but single screens ranged from excellent to good. The film put up very good weekend numbers in CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan, Bihar, Nizam and Maharashtra.
It is the first film of Shahid Kapoor to take such a start in the heartland as normally his films fare better at metro multiplexes. The film is likely to do well in the circuits where it has very good weekend collections but a steady run at multiplexes till the release of Dhoom 3 will really help its cause. The breakdown for the weekend is as follows
Friday – 8,75,00,000
Saturday – 8,25,00,000
Sunday – 10,50,00,000
TOTAL – 27,50,00,000

The film should go on to do gross around 10 crore nett over its second second with a big jump on Saturday as the new releases have fared poorly.
