Antim - The Final Truth will show an upward trend on Saturday as it does business in the 5.25-5.50 crore nett range. The jump is not huge but it was crucial that the film did not drop. These type of films tend to be flat or drop on day two and here was the added factor of Salman Khan bringing in the opening day audience so a drop would have been no surprise.

The film has actually held on day two which means now the actual film has a chance as its about the film and not the star pull. Now that the film did not drop on Saturday it can aim for a good Sunday and decent first weekend collections.

The metros have shown healthy gains and even Delhi city where Mumbai underworld films have little appeal. Some of the bigger cities of Punjab are also up where these films hold even less appeal than Delhi city.

There will be falls in places like Nizam / Andhra where Antim - The Final Truth was very good on day one and places like CP Berar and Bihar wher it also collected well but a mass market like Gujarat is showing gains which is a good sign . Maharashtra should also be up where the film had solid first day collections.

Overall Antim - The Final Truth is in a decent position after the first two days and the next two days will tell if the film can be a success.
