New releases of the week, Madgaon Express and Swatantrya Veer Savarkar, managed growth all over again on Sunday and that’s a relief for all involved with them since it was also a bare minimum requirement. With an opening of Rs. 1.63 crores and Rs. 1.10 crores respectively, the reliance was entirely on the growth that takes place on Saturday and Sunday, and then the consolidation that happens on Monday due to partial holiday of Holi. Though neither of the two films is going berserk at the moment, at least there is day on day growth over the weekend.

Kunal Kemmu directed Madgaon Express has further moved up to Rs. 2.81 crores on Sunday and that too with no BOGO offer. This means the ticket buying footfalls are much bigger this time around and almost double of how it was on Friday. Had this been triple though, then it would have been an even better positioning for the film. Of course, to do something like that is really tough but then its growth like this which promises Monday to be greater than Friday, something which the film requires too. Currently, the film stands at Rs. 7.16 crores and stability today will help.

That’s exactly what Swatantrya Veer Savarkar would be hoping for as well with Rs. 6.10 crores in its kitty so far. The film opened at Rs. 1.10 crores and now Sunday numbers are Rs. 2.75 crores which is more than double of Friday. Had this been tripled up, which means collections had gone past the Rs. 3 crores mark, then that would have resulted in an even better positioning. Still, there is a partial holiday today which means at the very least, the collections would be aiming to be better than Friday. Post that it would all boil down to hold from tomorrow on.

Note: All collections as per production and distribution sources
