Collection of Oh My God in its course of run

Oh My God is rock steady on Wednesday. It collected around 3.50 crore nett on that day. Despite the previous day was a holiday the collections did not drop by much & are only slightly lower than its first day.

The total collection of the film till Wednesday stands at 32.50 crore nett & the first week will likely to finish just more than 35 crore nett. And this a very good recovery from an average first day which was only 4 crore nett.

Oh My God is doing excellent business in areas like Mumbai, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh & Central India & the best collections have come from Gujarat.  The eastern India & southern India have recorded lower collections but are steady throughout the week.  Eastern Punjab should have been a strong performer but collections are low there since the film has not released in most of the areas of the circuit.

Two new films are releasing this Friday English Vinglish & Kismat Love Paisa Dilli. But Oh My God will also behave like a new film & will give a tough competition to them making the battle between three contenders.

Oh My Got has sustained very well over the weekdays & it is certain that the occupancy level of Oh My God will be higher than the other two films. But collection of the film will depend on how much screen space it gets at the theatres.

The two new films English Vinglish & Kismat Love Paisa Dilli will not get a very good opening & will depend on word of mouth of the audience. As a result there are very good chances that Oh My God becomes no 1 on this Friday.

In Kanpur Oh My God showed rock steady collections throughout the week. The Thursday collections are just 15% lower than the first day collection at Kanpur. Now let us see the day by day first week collections of Oh My God at Kanpur.

Collection of "Oh My God" over the weekdays

The collection of the film on Monday is even better than Friday. The film collected 4.50 crore nett on Monday as per as early estimates. The collection of the film on Friday was low still it is rarely seen that the collection on Monday comes out higher than Friday.

The collection of Oh My God are down by only 30% on Monday from Sunday while generally films show a 50% fall on Monday from Sunday. The evening shows on Monday were strong as Tuesday is a holiday. The Monday figure indicates that if there were no cricket match on Sunday then the collection of suday would have been 8 – 8.50 crore.

The film collected 21 crore nett in its first four days & the week is heading towards more than 30 crore nett. And the collection can even touch 33 crore nett depending on the collection on tues day which is a holiday.

"Oh My God" Box Office collections over the entire weekend

Oh  My God is not basically an Akshay Kumar starrer film. Akshay Kumar is not in the main lead while Paresh Rawal is in the main Hero. Though Akshay Kumar plays the part of God. It is basically a word of mouth film. The main audience for the movie are family & ladies & the fate of the film depends upon its growth on Saturday & Sunday. 

Gujarat will open well since the movie has a Gujarati flavor but the business in other parts of the country will have to depend on word of mouth of the movie. Now lets see what it does over the entire weekend.

Oh My God opened 30% - 40% at the multiplexes on Friday morning which is below the mark. The collections are better in few parts of India but major parts of India remained low. Now everyone is waiting what happens to the evening & night shows as collection in the morning shows are not good.

The best opening state was Gujarat due to the film’s local flavor. The film did not open well in other parts of the country since it is not for masses or youths & is for family audiences at the multiplexes.

So the main business of the movie was expected to come from family audiences on Sunday. Since on Sunday families come in huge numbers in the multiplexes. If a good jump is noticed on Sunday then the film will surely do good business in the long run.

Oh My God did a business of 3.75 to 4 crore nett on its first day which is poor. The business in Gujarat where the film performed best is average but the collection elsewhere is very low.

In Delhi/UP the film collected 75 to 80 lakhs, in Mumbai the film collected 1.50 crore due to good business in Gujarat. Eastern & southern parts of India is very low & central India is low with a collection of 55 lakhs approximately. The film was banned in few places of Punjab that is why the film did not performed well there.

If the film grows 25% to 30% on Saturday & Sunday then the film will score well at the box office.
