Such collections were always on the cards, considering the songs (Gandi Baat, Saree Ke Fall Sa) had done the trick while the promos were accepted too. Oh yes, there were spoilers in the party though, what with majority of critics panning the film with some of the worst reviews of the year reserved for it. There were a handful of average and good reviews too but largely, there wasn’t any chance given to the film. However, audience had a choice of its own and this was reflected in some consistent numbers that the film gained over the weekend.

As a result, around 29 crores came over the weekend for R… Rajkumar which has given the film a good chance to fight it out during the weekdays. Solo release as well as absence of any competition whatsoever has helped the film’s prospects and since there is hardly any competition in the coming week, R… Rajkumar should continue to find audience, especially in the single screens. This must indeed be good news for Shahid Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha who were hunting for a good earner this year.

Other release of the week, Club 60 got good reviews and sparse release, hence resulting in hardly any collections coming its way. It would soon be hunting for audience in the home video circuit.
