Jaat is a success as it held up well on Wednesday with collections close to the 4 crore nett mark. Due to the holiday on Monday and discounted rates on Tuesday the test was going to be Wednesday and the film has managed to hold collections well. The Wednesday number is less than 45% down from the Friday and this after a Monday holiday and discounted rates which got extra admits.

The seven day first week number has closed on around 55.50 crore nett and the extended eight day week may go close to around 59 crore nett. Jaat is the second success of a drought ridden year and now it remains to be seen if the film can emerge a HIT.  A open week second week would have helped its cause but it has Kesari 2 for competition. Although both films have a different audience profile a big new release does affect the holdover films compared to an open week.

Its a film that the industry was not taking seriously and when the film opened there very low lifetime numbers were going around but it has exceeded those numbers in just seven days and more is to come. The film saw good holds the across the board but outside Rajasthan, Haryana and UP it can be said that the holds at low levels but that is good enough for the film. The film is a HIT in Rajasthan, Delhi / UP and East Punjab and many centers in these pockets will be giving competition to Kesari 2 even though Jaat will be in week two.  The seven day business of Jaat is as follows.
