Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has done excellent business over the first two days amassing the highest ever two day figure of 68 crore nett plus but even with these record numbers the third day is critical in terms of where the film will go. The film is a success but to go on and do that really big number of 250 crore nett plus it will have to hold on Saturday and return similar figures to Friday.
The Saturday morning figures are showing a noticeable drop of 20-25% compared to yesterday, this is the case for most big budget films though and from afternoon onwards they tend to start to cover and even go past the previous day depending on how high the previous day is.
The film will start to cover this drop from the afternoon but it remains to be seen can if it get to the Friday level or not. The difference here with Prem Ratan Dhan Payo is that it is the third day and has already consumed a higher amount of business than a normal Friday release so may find it tough to equal the business on Friday. A minor drop on Saturday will not matter much but if collections turn out to drop 10% or more then the film will find it hard to become that huge hit.
