For Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video to have any chance to go past Rs. 40 crores lifetime, the need of the hour was for Saturday as well as Sunday to surpass Rs. 2 crores milestone. Ideally, Saturday needed to be at least Rs. 2 crores and then if Sunday somehow managed to cross Rs. 3 crores, then it would be a reasonably better positioning that this comedy drama could have found itself in.
This has happened with Saturday doing its job and resulting in Rs. 2.25 crores* being collected at the box office. On Friday the film had brought in Rs. 1.50 crore* so this is still a reasonable enough jump. Currently, this is what the film needs, which is to not crash out completely and keep bringing in some sort of footfalls. With no new releases around it and competition (Jigra) not being hard either, this Rajkummar Rao and Triptii Dimri starrer is living on to complete two more weeks in theatres and in the process bring on some moolah.
Currently, the film stands at Rs. 29.25* crores and it will be close to Rs. 32 crores mark by the time the weekend is through. Post that, Rs. 35 crores mark should be comfortably crossed by the close of second week and thereafter it should somehow pull off a Rs. 40 crores lifetime due to one more absolutely open week ahead.
*Estimates. Final numbers awaited
Note: All collections as per various box office sources
