Malang collected 24 crore nett its first weekend which are reasonable numbers but the weekend trend is not really there to suggest that the film can go on from here. The needed to reaching double digits on Sunday especially as the film is more for markets outside the metros which have best collections on Sunday.

The film has done a little better in Maharashtra, Gujarat / Saurashtra and Nizam Andhra but even here it does not look as if the film can go on as the collections cant be called good. The Monday number is crucial for the film and it cannot afford to have that normal 50% drop if it is to sustain after the first week. The collections across the Hindi belt are not what they should be for this genre and this is probably because it could not get a start on day one due to the face value. The collections of Malang till date are as follows

Friday - 6,50,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 8,25,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 9,25,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 24,00,00,000 apprx

Shikara could not do much over the weekend as it collected 4.50 crore nett. the first day collections were actually respectable for a film with no faces but it could not go on from there probably as the content is not upto the mark. The film had to double up on Saturday but that did not happen and then Sunday the film was basically flat with no growth which does not give much hope for the long run. The collections of Shikara till date are as follows.

Friday - 1,15,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 1,70,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 1,70,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 4,55,00,000 apprx
