Audiance is the King and Boxoffice the Prophet, what they say needs to be and will be accepted – Success or otherwise.



London Dreams has grossed 4.25 crore nett approx on day one. The first day figures are decent thanks to pick up yesterday evening at multiplexes. Further improvement over the weekend will mean a good Monday also as it is a holiday. The approx first day territory breakdowns are as follows.

Mumbai – 1.50 crore

Delhi/UP – 90 lakhs

East Punjab – 35 lakhs

West Bengal – 18 lakhs

Bihar – 8 lakhs

CP Berar – 20 lakhs

CI – 16 lakhs

Rajasthan – 25 lakhs

Nizam – 26 lakhs

Musore – 16 lakhs

Others – 20 lakhs

Aladin has grossed an extremely poor 90 lakhs nett approx on day one. Collections are very dull all over with circuits like Bihar, CP Berar, CI and Rajasthan grossing just 12 lakhs between them.

The film can gross around 3.50 crore nett over the weekend if it shows normal improvement on Saturday and Sunday. But to record any worthwhile figures it will have to show a jump like All The Best did. All The Best recorded 250% higher collections on Sunday than Saturday.

Overall the reports are not good which will make it extremely tough for Aladin to turn things around.

    Alladin is one of the biggest disaster ever, even bigger than Drona,2050 and Yuvvraaj(these three movies atleast did 15 cr).

    Alladin will find it hard to reach 6-7 cr total.

    LD needs to show more pick up to become some decent success.

    Saturday updates

    Bangalore – Good business at multiplexes throughout the day, especially INOX and PVR Cinemas. Single screens aren’t too great in Bangalore.

    Mangalore (Karnataka) – Fantastic collections at Big Cinemas (Bharat Mall). When we contacted the Manager of the multiplex he said “London Dreams is doing well, family audiences are loving it, collections should improve further on Sunday. Aladin opened very poorly, around 10% occupancy for the Morning show on Saturday. Its targeted at the kids and Sunday being a holiday, we expect a better response.”

    Mumbai – Much like Bangalore, Business has picked up after a slow start on Friday. Sunday is expected to be even better.

    Overall, all India business for the first 2 days should be around Rs 100 million (10 crores – nett gross).
