Wanted grossed around 18 crore nett over its first weekend in India. The performance was excellent in single screens all over especially Bihar and CP Berar where business was huge. The multiplexes did show a improvement in collections on Saturday and Sunday but the jump was not huge.
Wanted should emerge a Semi Hit to Hit film mainly on the strength of Salman Khan's star power. Monday is a holiday and Eid festivities will end which will mean a jump in collections in muslim centres especially in action loving areas like UP, Bihar and Nizam. The first week is likely to end up in the 30 crore nett region which is a good result as it has been sold at fair prices in most circuits.
The underperformance at metro multiplexes will be a dampener on its overall business but it was sort of expected that metro multiplexes will have lower collections as the film has been in the making for a longtime which givs its a dated look. |
