Thappad managed to have a fair weekend at the box office as 14.66 crores came in. The film started slow [3.07 crores], jumped well on Saturday [5.05 crores] and then grew more on Sunday as well [6.54 crores]. Basically, it had an upwards trend during the weekend and though it wasn’t big enough to totally turn around the fortunes of the film, at least there is growth and that has added some sort of respectability to the numbers.
Now it is going to be all about the kind of hold that comes in during the weekdays. Had the jumps been really huge on Saturday and Sunday with almost a 100% jump on the second day and then further 50% jump on the third then one could have expected Monday to come closer to Friday. However, that won’t really turn out to be the case and one can expect some drop at least on Monday. As a result, Monday could well emerge in the range of 2-2.50 crores.
