Baazaar collected in the 2.50-.2.75 crore nett range which is a poor collection but its around 1 crore nett better than it looked in the morning when it opened. The film managed to improve its collections in the Mumbai / Gujarat belt.

This is probably because the film is based on the stock exchange and has Gujrati language in the film.  The film is very dull in the North with Delhi / UP picking up just 50 lakhs and East Punjab 20 lakhs nett. Mumbai circuit will be more than double of Delhi / UP with collections being around 1.25 crore nett. The film is the best opening for Saif Ali Khan in recent times with his other films being around the 1 crore nett mark.

The film has a pick up on day one but it is very regional so there has to be a doubt that the film can really go on. It is a mainly a multiplex film and for them you need Mumbai and Delhi on board as mass centres are not going to help much but here its looks like just Mumbai has a chance as Delhi collections too low..

Baazaar was far better than the other releases like 5 Weddings, Baazaar, Chal Jaa Bapu. Dasshera, Gaon - The Village No More, Kaashi and The Journey of Karma were total washouts.

The best of the lot was Kaashi which collected 20 lakhs nett. Despite having the best collections among its competitors it is still a huge disaster which means its best not to say much about the others. The apprx collections of these films were as follows.

 5 Weddings -10 lakhs

 Chal Jaa Bapu - under 1 lakh.

Dasshera - 2 lakh

Gaon - The Village No More - under 1 lakh

Kaashi - 20 lakh

The Journey Of Karma - 5 lakh
