In a season when not many films have made fortune at the box office, Manish Tiwary's debut film DIL DOSTI ETC. has held on quite well in it's second week. After a decent first week which brought in Rs. 1.5 crores at the box office, second week billing is close to 90 lakhs. This has resulted in total net collection at the end of second week to be approximately Rs 2 crore 50 Lakhs.
Earlier in the first week, per print collection was above Rupees 2 lakhs (Rs. 2,01,175 for 78 prints), a healthy figure. Also the film entered into a strong second week with approximately the same number of prints and shows. The film is now into its third week.
The film has recovered its production costs, is an earner and is a success for Prakash Jha productions. The production house's next film is KHOYA KHOYA CHAND.
