Aamir Khan’s ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ which released on Friday, June 20 picked up extremely well over the weekend with positive word of mouth. But as expected it saw a major drop on Monday. But now how it sustains all through the week will play a huge role in determining the film’s fate. ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ though, has surpassed expectations and despite being a niche film and not like a ‘Ghajini’ or ‘Dangal’, the film has managed to create a dent at the box office.Sitaare Zameen Par Movie ReviewOn Friday, the film collected Rs 10.7 crore. Meanwhile, on Saturday, it saw a growth of around 88.79 percent and made Rs 20.2 crore. On Sunday, it saw a further jump of 34.90 percent according to Sacnilk and made Rs 27.25 crore. From that, the film saw a major drop on Monday and made Rs 8.5 crore. Now even Tuesday, has begun on a similar note as Monday and one expects the movie to sustain the same as that number. On Tuesday, the movie made the same as the Monday number which is Rs 8.5 crore. The numbers on Tuesday could also have been more due to more footfalls as at many theatres like PVR Inox, the ticket price is at a discounted rate on Tuesday. The fact that it remained steady is a great sign. On Wednesday, up till afternoon, the film has made Rs 1.78crore. The total collection now stands at Rs
76.93 crore.
The film is doing better in multiplexes than single screens. According to Box Office India, ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ has also done well in territories like Rajasthan and Gujarat where usually Aamir films don’t do well. So, it’s an encouraging sign. But one hopes that it continues to hold well all through the week and also on the second weekend.
