Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office: Does well in Week One, stability today will be key to Rs. 150 crores+ lifetime :Bollywood Box Office

After taking a double digit opening on Friday and then creating history over the weekend by scoring biggest ever jumps, Sitaare Zameen Par managed to stay decent to good right through the weekdays as well. While Monday and Tuesday were good, there were some drops seen on Wednesday and Thursday. They were not alarming but then also made one a bit cautious about how the second week would unfold.

Had this been an open week then there wouldn’t have been any issue at all since this is anyways a weekend film and hence huge jumps were bound to come in. However, there is a plethora of releases this weekend and that too across languages and genres. This means the Aamir Khan starrer has a task cut out for itself. First and foremost, it needs to be stable today and then battle it out to take that “greater than 50% jump” on Saturday and Sunday. If that indeed turns out to be the case, then a lifetime of over Rs. 150 crores will be there for the taking. Otherwise, it would be wait and watch.

Currently, this RS Prasanna directed film stands at Rs. 88.46 crores and it would be aiming for the second weekend of at least Rs. 25 crores. It’s not as much of a problem from screens and shows perspective but the fact that how will audiences receive other films. Maa and F1: The Movie in particular would be a major competition and that will make this week not just a playing ground for audiences to rush to theatres but also simply wonderful for exhibitors to welcome all the footfalls.
