Toilet Ek Prem Katha has done extremely well in its first week with 94 crore nett and this has come from an opening of a little over 11.50 crore nett. Basically the film has almost averaged its first day collections over the first week. It was helped by the big holiday on Tuesday but a film has to be accepted to get the sort of benefit it did when the holiday falls on day five. The opening of the film was average but it went into overdrive on Saturday with the sort of jump that no film collecting over 10 crore nett day one has seen unless Saturday has turned out to be a major holiday.
The first noticeable drop came on Wednesday as it was after the big holiday but Thursday was again steady with a minimal drop of 5-10%. It added 6 crore apprx on Thursday which is still less than 50% drop from day one. There will be a big jump on Saturday but a good hold on day eight will be crucial if the film is to get a really big second weekend.
The best business for the film has come in Delhi / UP (tax free in UP but that does not have the same affect as before with GST especially in UP where Entertainment Tax rates were so high). It could actually become the highest grosser of the year in Delhi / UP over the next few days that is not including Bahubali - The Conclusion though. The film may also hit 6 crore nett in West Bengal which has never happened before for an Akshay Kumar film. It should also cross the lifetime NETT of Rowdy Rathore but it should also target the 73 crore share of Rowdy Rathore to be a bigger grosser in real terms.
