An under 50 percent weekend to weekend drop shall be a something that the makers will be very proud of.
Sitaare Zameen Par Is Likely To Face Stiff Competition In Theatres In The Next Week
It is competition next week that will be slightly challenging for Sitaare Zameen Par. While F1 will retain IMAX screens and premium multiplex screens, Maa, Jurassic World Rebirth and Metro... In Dino will also fight for screens. Sitaare Zameen Par, being a film targeting Metros, will feel the heat of the competition. Regardless, one would expect that the dramedy would have done substantial business in theatres by the start of the third weekend.
For the cost and scale of the film, Sitaare Zameen Par has done well for itself so far. Definitely, it isn't like the business one would expect from a quintessential Aamir Khan film. But, the film was written off by most before it released, and now it is going to challenge Housefull 5 and Raid 2's lifetime India net total.
