Race 2 First Day Collection

Race 2 had an excellent Day 1 at the Domestic Box Office, as the movie collected about 15.12 Crores nett on day 1. The movie performed utmost in Mumbai, Delhi, Punjab and UP circuits.

The Abbas-Mustan directorial got mixed response from the critics, however, it seems the reviews just couldn’t affect the Box Office performance of the film. Race 2 had a huge opening at multiplexes across the Metros in India collecting full houses or near full. Its single screens performance at the mass belts was not as good as multiplexes since the movie is essentially a multiplex flick.

Meanwhile reports suggest that Abbas Mastan movie is doing exceptionally well in metros like Delhi and Mumbai and other big cities, but in Hindi hinterland, the same is not true. In the smaller cities you need to be a Salman Khan or Shahh Rukh Khan to attract huge crowds and these are the people who take the collection to one or two billion rupees at the box office.

The Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez, Anil Kapoor, and Ameesha Patel starrer is expected to show a good jump in its business today, being a National Holiday.

If the trend goes go Saturaday andSunday could be above20 crores and the movie could touch 50 crores in 3days.Seems, this multi-starrer will surely give 2013 its first HIT!
