After collecting quite well in double digits on Tuesday with Rs. 10.10 crores coming in, Milap Zaveri’s Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat surprised on Wednesday as the hold was much better than expected. It had seemed that around 25% drop would come on the day after big Diwali holiday and Wednesday numbers would be in Rs. 6.50-7.50 crores range. However, there was another very good day in store as Rs. 8.88 crores came in that has taken the two-day score to Rs. 18.98 crores.

Now, that’s hardly a drop and could well have been the first day number and still been quite good. However, it’s the second day score and that goes on to show that there is an audience out there where word of mouth is seemingly working since there is as much as music and the lead hero’s rising popularity that can do, and post that merits start coming into picture.

Still, it’s early days and the acid test would be the hold today for this Harshvardhan Kapoor and Sonam Bajwa starrer. If collections emerge on top of Rs. 7 crores today, then it’s game on since there would be a definite rise in collections again tomorrow, with chances of the film hitting double digit again on Saturday and Sunday. If that indeed turns out to be the case, then we could as well have a sure shot hit in the six-day extended weekend itself.

Note: All collections as per various box office sources
