Raksha Bandhan did fair business in some pockets on the second day as it collected around 6.25 crore nett which is a 25% drop from the first day. The trend is pretty decent post for Friday post a Thursday holiday but the problem is that the numbers are low so despite a decent hold on the second day the overall collections remain low.

The hold is also there due to the post Raksha Bandhan benefit as UP shows a huge jump in collections with some cinemas more than doubling collections from Thursday. The second day collections in UP are good. The film has also show solid holds in places like CI and Rajasthan. These circuits are collecting around 50-60% more than laal Singh Chaddha.

The business remains low in the bigger centres while South India is awful but you dont really want South India to be leading either as it will mean limited market for the film. Due to the initial the film cant really do much but there seems some good trend in mass pockets which can help the film at least on Sunday and Monday. It could be that it is the post Raksha Bandhan benefit but at least its there unlike Laal Singh Chaddha.

The film has closed the gap on Laal Singh Chaddha on the second day and maybe it can go ahead at some point of time. It may not be Saturday as that is a day for high end multiplexes which should benefit Laal Singh Chaddha but the second day should also have benefitted Laal Singh Chaddha. The two day collections of Raksha Bandhan are as follows.. 

Friday - 8,00,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

TOTAL - 14,25,00,000 apprx
