Hindi Medium had an excellent second Friday of 2.25-2.50 crore nett apprx which has taken its eight day total to around 24.50 crore nett. There is hardly any drop from day one and this has come despite the competition from Sachin - A Billion Dreams and Pirates of the Caribbean. The film came into its own over the weekdays and has continued that run in the second week. The film will have  avery strong second week which should be similar to the first weekend but the weekdays may be lower compared to the first week. Overall the film is a success and could even go to 50 crore nett in terms of lifetime which would mean its costs more or less covered by India theatrical. . 

Half Girlfriend dropped on its eighth day with collections in the 1.25-1.50 crore nett region. The film has collected around 48.50 crore nett till now but this low eighth day makes it tough the film. The film could not collect in the face of competition and probably needed a clearer run in the second week to hold. The film should jump well on Saturday but the weekend is going to remain low. The film has sufferend with low collections in Delhi city and East Punjab especially the latter. With these not doing too well, the multiplex business is always on the lower side and eventually its multiplexes which will sustain this type of film.
