Salman Khan’s Jai Ho has collected Rs 17 crore at the domestic box office on Saturday. Single-screen business witnessed drops in the range of 10-15%, while multiplexes picked up marginally.
Even though the film did pick up towards the end of the day, the occupancy at big city multiplexes continued to be way below-the-mark on Day 2. The average all-India occupancy at multiplexes was a poor 30-35%
However, after a fantastic start on Friday, single-screens were rock-solid with normal drops on Saturday.
Like mentioned in our box office report last night, today (Sunday) will be the biggest test for Jai Ho at the domestic box office. The film has opened to better occupancies all over today, even multiplexes were up by 10-20% from yesterday.
But with all-India net box office collections of less than Rs 35 crore in 2 days, even a fantastic Sunday would only take the film to around 55-60 crore in its first weekend. Considering the price that the film has been sold at and the opening that it has taken, Jai Ho will need a good 2 week run to emerge a winner at the box office.
The reports are good, but will that lead to family audiences coming out to watch the film from Monday onwards – is the big question. In today’s times, for a film of this magnitude, a good response at single-screens alone isn’t good enough, multiplex business is crucial to its success.
