    Bhaag Milkha Bhaag inches towards Rs 100 crore club

    MUMBAI: This was second week in running that the audience had a choice of sex film in BA Pass. The film about a nymphomaniac married woman seducing a teenage boy collected Rs 3.85 crore for its opening weekend with most of it coming from single screens in B class centres.

    Rabba Main Kya Karoon starring Arshad Warsi, Paresh Rawal, Akash Chopra and Riya Sen struggled to sustain through the weekend.

    Chor Chor Super Chor starring Beepak Dobriyal, a reasonable entertainer, failed to draw the audience.

    Bajatey Raho failed to cash in on its moderate face value and poor oppositions. The film managed to collect 6.5 crore for its first week.

    Issaq could not find many takers outside of UP; the film managed a meagre 3.6 crore in its first week.

    Nashaa, having opened poor, dropped further during the week to end its first week run with 3.5 crore.

    Luv U Soniyo just about managed to cross two crore rupees mark in its first week.

    Ramaiya Vastavaiya collected Rs 4.35 crore in its second week to take its two week total to Rs 24.65 crore.

    Despite its reasonable price tag, D-Day will prove a loser; the film collected Rs 3.5 crore in its second week to take its two week tally to Rs 18 crore.

    Bhaag Milkha Bhaag maintains strong collections in its third week. The film collects Rs 16.1 crore to take its three week tally to Rs 94.25 crore.
