Dil To Baccha Hai Ji was below the mark on its first day at around 3.75 crore nett. The figure is okay if we compare the first day number with likes No One Killed Jessica (3.20 crore) and Dhobi Ghat (2.85 crore) but the release of Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji was considerably bigger than those films. For the release 3.75 crore nett approx is a disappointing first day number. The approx territorial breakdowns are as follows.
Mumbai – 1.50 crore
Delhi/UP – 76 lakhs
East Punjab – 36 lakhs
West Bengal- 19 lakhs
CP Berar – 19 lakhs
CI – 13 lakhs
Rajasthan – 17 lakhs
Nizam – 21 lakhs
Mysore – 15 lakhs
Others – 13 lakhs
TOTAL – 3.79 crore

Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji started slowly but picked up at metro multiplexes in the evening but single screens were not good. The first day was below par and Saturday will be important as a good pick up can se it do decent weekend business. A big jump and even a good weekend may be possible.
Dhobi Ghat was saved by a decent first week of 13 crore nett thanks to Republic Day holiday. The film fell on Monday but its weekday business was still decent as it grossed 4.50 crore nett on weekdays thanks to nearly 1.75 crore nett on holiday Wednesday. The film has crashed badly on its 8th day with collections down 85-90% from day one. The film may not even hit the 15 crore nett mark and is probably the first film from from Aamir Khan Productions which has been rejected outright by paying public.
Yamla Pagla Deewana was very steady in week two with around 14.75 crore nett business taking its two week tally to 49.50 crore nett. North India is performing very well and republic Day was fantastic across the board. HIT

Yamla Pagla Deewana made the best of the Republic Day holiday as the collections jumped 300% at places compared to Tuesday. The film grossed around 8 crore nett over the weekend but weekdays look like adding over 6 crore thanks to the jump on Republic Day. Single screens were huge across the country as even house full boards went up again in some screens of UP.
Yamla Pagla Deewana should cross the 55 crore nett mark and may even hit 60 crore nett if next two weeks can put up good collections.
Republic Day also gave Dhobi Ghat a boost but not as much as Yamla Pagla Deewana. It looks like the Yamla Pagla Deewana second week will be better that the first week of Dhobi Ghat thanks to the jump by Yamla Pagla Deewana yesterday.

The film had growth on Saturday at multiplexes of metroes but collections on Sunday were lower at most multiplexes around the country.
Mumbai circuit grossed around 3.25 crore nett while Delhi/UP grossed 1.85 crore nett. The film does have benefit of Republic Day holiday on Wednesday so should be able to do around 13-13.50 crore nett business for the week.

Yamla Pagla Deewana had a solid second weekend as it grossed around 8.50 crore nett in its second weekend. This takes the films business to 43 crore nett plus in ten days.
Despite the release of Dhobi Ghat, Yamla Pagla Deewana was still first choice in all circuits except Mumbai, Bengal and South. The North is still going very strong and Sunday was excellent across the board.
Yamla Pagla Deewana is the first outright hit of 2011 and may do a distributor share of around 30 crore. In East Punjab the film is a blockbuster while in Delhi/UP its a Super Hit where the lifetime share could be 5 and 9 crore respectively.
