Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania Weekend Collections and Monday Update

Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania recorded excellent collections over the weekend. The business of the film exceeded expectations and the film picked up by 50% from Friday to Sunday – which is outstanding considering the fact that the film took a very good start on Friday itself.

The film lost about anything between 4-6 crore to Riteish Deshmukh’s marathi ‘Lai Bhaari’, the Ramadan period (most muslims don’t watch films) and the torrential rains that lashed the city of Mumbai and other regions of the Mumbai circuit over the weekend.

Given the word-of-mouth that Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania is carrying, the film could have collect 38 cr+ if not for the competition and rains.

Even with so many factors against it, Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania collected Rs 10.28 cr from Mumbai, 8 cr from Delhi/UP and 4 cr from East Punjab. Mysore was surprisingly below-the-mark, even though business picked up on Saturday and Sunday.

The first weekend business of Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania is about the same as Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, which went on to collect 100 cr+ at the box office. Three small films are scheduled to release this week and none will impact the business of the Varun Dhawan starrer, which has 11 open days to collect as much as it can before Kick releases in theatres.
