They want to invest huge amount of money. Earning of 28 crores on Saturday. This represents an increase of 15 percent from its first day. This brings the total for two days to Rs.

Purely at face value, both the numbers and the trend are pretty good. In fact, organic growth could exceed 15 percent. However, these obviously cannot be taken at face value, as there is a lot of feeding involved. It is difficult to estimate the quantity of food. How much of the box office figures are good, and how much is tainted? On day one, there were massive, immaculate pre-sales, but today, there’s really nothing to base it on. Therefore, nothing meaningful can be said or analyzed about the film and its box office.
As a box office reporter, this is a difficult and frustrating situation, because you want to report the box office and you have to report the numbers that are there on paper, even if you know they don’t mean anything. It is unclear if and for how long the makers plan to continue this. Their reasoning for doing so is to create the impression that a film is doing well. Remembering a time when reporting inflated box office figures in the media was a way of creating perception, the actual figures were to be seen in the billing. Now the billing itself has been inflated/compromised, so there is no way of knowing the actual number.
