The film has got very positive reviews from critics and grossed around Rs. 1.20 crore on its opening day, which is below average.<br /><br />Given the positive word of mouth, the collection might pick up on Saturday evening and Sunday.<br /><br />On the other hand, <a href="http://bollywood3000.blogspot.com/search/label/Utt%20Pataang%20Movie"><b>Utt Pataang</b></a> saw a very low response of about 10 percent (or even less) and grossed just a paltry sum of Rs. 10 lakh on its opening day.<br /><br />The other two films - United Six and Hum Dono - fear a total washout at theatres.<br /><br />Last week’s release <a href="http://bollywood3000.blogspot.com/search/label/Dil%20Toh%20Baccha%20Hai%20Ji%20Movie"><b>Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji</b></a> has rounded off its first week collection at a figure of Rs. 21 crore.

Though it’s decent till now, as per trade reports, a big jump and good second weekend is possible for the film because there are no major releases this week except Yeh Saali Zindagi.<br /><a name="more"></a><br />Coming to Dhobi Ghat, the movie collected Rs 13 crore in its first week but saw a major drop on eighth day. The movie may have to struggle to touch the Rs 15 crore mark. This Aamir Khan production though not successful in India is well received at the overseas market.

Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji took a dull start at box office on Friday but picked up slightly in the evening.<br /><br />The movie, starring a host of actors including <a href="http://bollywood3000.blogspot.com/search/label/Ajay%20Devgan?&max-results=4"><b>Ajay Devgan</b></a>, <a href="http://bollywood3000.blogspot.com/search/label/Emraan%20Hashmi?&max-results=4"><b>Emraan Hashmi</b></a>, <a href="http://bollywood3000.blogspot.com/search/label/Omi%20Vaidya?&max-results=4"><b>Omi Vaidya</b></a>, <a href="http://bollywood3000.blogspot.com/search/label/Shazahn%20Padamsee?&max-results=4"><b>Shazahn Padamsee</b></a>, Shruti Haasan and Shraddha Das, saw a 40 percent response at most urban centres on Friday morning. The collections went up slightly in the evening and are expected to rise, or at least remain steady, throughout the weekend.<br /><a name="more"></a><br />The fact that Ajay Devgan’s films have been doing well lately might give heart to the producers and distributors who are hopeful that the collections will rise considerably in the coming days.<br /><br />On the other hand, Aamir Khan’s Dhobi Ghat rounded off its first week with a collection of Rs. 13 crore net. The film is more of an arthouse cinema and perhaps that’s why it fared shockingly low at box office compared with Aamir’s previous blockbusters.<br /><br />Meanwhile, the Deol storm is continuing unabated through North India as their film Yamla Pagla Deewana is on the cusp of touching the Rs. 50 crore mark after its two weeks at theatres.
