Rangoon could not get any growth on Saturday as collections were similar to Friday. This was always likely to happen as though Friday was very low it was still aided by Mahashivratri which helped collections in some parts and these areas could not grow on Saturday. There was limited growth in some circuits but this film needed 60-70% growth just for some respectability. The business on Saturday seals its fate and even Monday is irrelevant now. The business of Rangoon over the first two days is as follows. 

Friday - 5,06,00,000

Saturday - 5,00,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 10,06,00,000 apprx

The Friday business was a kick in the teeth to the actors fro the audience and although non are major factors at the box office, a combined effort at least should have yielded better results. Then the Saturday business was a kick in the teeth for the director as it means complete rejection of the film.

The Shahid Kapoor / Vishal Bhardwaj combination must be one of the worst in history actor / director combos in history. This is partly to do the fact that they got to make three films. Normally a combo that does not get results does not manage to get 3 films but here corporate backing allowed this to happen. 

Kaminey got 68 lakh people to the theatre, then Haider got 44 lakh and Rangoon may well get less than half audience of Haider. On top Kaminey and Haider had no shell life, once out of theatres they were forgotten films with disaster results on television and eventually these things tell and here it has told on Rangoon. Going by Haider and Rangoon, a film like Kaminey actually looks a blockbuster.
