Box Office: Shaitaan First Monday Early Estimates
Mumbai, March 11 - After the very good first-weekend collection with 54 crores net, Ajay Devgn-fronted Shaitaan sees a drop of over 60% on its first Monday and the same is around 50% from Friday on which the collection benefitted by Maha Shivratri holiday. ## According to early estimates, the supernatural thriller mints 6.75-7.25 crores net collection on its first Monday, which takes the total collection to around 61 crores in 4 days. The drop from Sunday as well as from Friday is slightly higher than normal but can be called a decent hold as the biz gets hit during Ramazan days. ## Shaitaan has been made on a controlled budget and a consistent performance from here on will take it to a healthy total. The movie, however, needs to show solid consistency during the weekdays to make sure it doesn't drop further beyond normal decline and that would take it to around 77 crores in the full first week. The film emerged as a success but it might not turn into that huge hit which looked like a possibility after the very good weekend collection.## Meanwhile, Article 370, starring Yami Gautam collects an estimated 85 lakh net on its third Monday. This takes the total collection of the film to around 66.50 crores in 18 days and it is heading towards finishing around 75 crores net which is a super hit collection. ## Stay tuned...
