Housefull released on Friday and people all over India flocked to theaters to catch the first mass entertainer in a long time. The response from the audience was mixed, some loved it, some just rejected it as yet another disappointing comdey flick from Akshay.
But the initial of the film i.e the weekend numbers are huge and has most likely beaten the opening weekend numbers of Shahrukh Khan’s My Name Is Khan that released in February this year.
Friday was somewhere in the range of 9 – 10 crores, Saturday added another 11 – 12 crores and Sunday too is around the same. The real test though is today (Monday) and the occupancy for morning shows in some theaters was around 25%
Will the film survive or crash on the dreaded Monday? Comments below

Housefull Has Extraordinary First Weekend

Housefull has broken the bad run over the last few weeks by recording extraordinary first weekend business. The weekend has has grossed around 31.50 crore nett. Business is fabulous all over, even territories like West Bengal and Mysore which are known to be historically weak for Akshay Kumar starrers are fabulous.
The first weekend business is the second highest in the history of Hindi cinema. The weekend business has almost ensured the film is a theatrical hit in India and now the weekdays and second weekend will decide if the film can emerge a Super Hit or Blockbuster. The first week is looking to finish somewhere between 45-50 crore nett, this will depend on how it sustains on Monday.
It remains to be seen what is in store for Housefull on Monday but with the film on a upward trend from Friday to Saturday to Sunday the odds are that it may sustain well. Normally a big film falls slightly on Saturday if the opening is strong but Housefull showed a jump. It could be said it was a holiday Saturday but when this happens with a major film which has not been liked then collections fall on Sunday and even here Housefull showed a healthy jump.
i am sure Akshay Kumar will rocks….god bless him…
HI indicine …hw r u ppl….m bck aftr a long time..Seems there is rain in the B.O after a long drought.
whats d budget of Housefull nd how much more it need to get the hit status !!
Housefull remained steady on Monday and recorded very good business of around the 5-5.25 crore nett mark. The film now is a certain hit and may be on its way to becoming the biggest hit of 2010 and Super Hit status.
The fim showed a drop of around 40-45% from its Friday business which is very good. All circuits were steady and some showed very small drops. CI was 34 lakhs on Friday and 23 lakhs on Monday which is just 33% drop. Nizam was 44 lakhs on Friday and 27 lakhs on Monday which is 39% drop. Rajasthan and CP Berar droped most at with 50% drops.
The four day business of the film is around the 36.50 crore nett mark and another 12-13 crore nett should be added over the weekdays which will enable the film to get close to the 50 crore nett in its first week. The lifetime business is hard to judge this early but it seems like Housefull film may cross 80 crore nett mark.
