Vishwaroop, David (7 days) first week collection at Box Office

Kamal Hassan's much-hyped Hindi movie Vishwaroop has concluded the first week with a brilliant collection, while another new release David starring Vikram and Neil Nitin Mukesh in leads, has proved to be a disaster at the Indian Box Office. But both have landed in the second and third positions, respectively, with old release Race 2 topping the business chart in the country.

Vishwaroop, which is the dubbed version of controversial Tamil movie Vishwaroopam, opened to an average response on Friday, but it showed very good improvement over the weekend. The movie collected Rs 7.56 crores at the domestic Box Office in the first weekend. Its breakup is Rs 1.89 cr on Fri, Rs 2.47 cr on Sat and Rs 3.2 cr on Sun.

Trade analyst predicted that the business of the Kamal Hassan-directed flick would drop by more than 50% on the weekdays, but it did not show that much dip. The collection of the movie decreased by just 36% on Monday and it also held well at ticket windows on other weekdays. Vishwaroop has collected Rs 3.91 crores at the desi Box Office on the weekdays, taking its first week total Rs 11.47 crores nett. Its breakup is Rs 1.19 cr on Mon, Rs 1.11 cr on Tue, Rs 84 lakhs on Wed and Rs 77 lakhs on Thu.

Whereas another new Hindi film David opened to a below average response at the collection centres. It was expected to show a big jump over the weekend. The movie did well, but it was not up to the mark. The movie had collected Rs 2.41 crores nett at the domestic Box Office in the first weekend and added another Rs 1.18 crores to its first week total Rs 3.59 crore nett. Its breakup is Rs 69 lakhs on Fri, Rs 83 lakhs on Sat, Rs 89 cr on Sun, Rs 36 lakhs on Mon 31 lakhs on Tue, Rs 27 lakhs on Wed and Rs 24 lakhs on Thu.
