Housefull 3 has done very well on Sunday at the domestic box office. Multiplex business was up and single-screens, where business was surprisingly below-par in the first couple of days, picked up too.
As per early estimates, the film has collected around 20-21 crore on Sunday – giving it a healthy first weekend total of 50 crore plus.
All eyes will now be on a strong hold on Monday. Anything above 9 crore will be excellent and if the collections hold around 7-8 crore range – it’ll still suggest a good trend, as multiplex ticket prices drop on Monday. Housefull 2 (2012) collected 6.50 crore on Monday, while Akshay’s highest grosser Rowdy Rathore (2012) – after a 48.1 crore first weekend – went on to hold outstandingly well by collecting 9 crore.
Akshay’s more recent success ‘Airlift’ collected 10.40 crore on its first weekday – but the following day (Tuesday) was a holiday for Republic Day, which gave the film an advantage for the night shows on Monday.
If Housefull 3 manages to hold somewhere in between Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore, it would mean the film has a good chance of taking advantage of the open weeks at the box office.
Just to add, there has been a lot of talk about the opening of ‘Housefull 3’. It was below expectations without a doubt, but it’s also a fact that the target audience of the franchise – families – only come out to watch films on Sunday. More so due to the lacklustre music album, which made a dent on business at single-screens in the first two days. The opening was solid and Saturday witnessed growth – which wasn’t the case with Housefull 2 in 2012. Sunday the film has come into its own, with Housefull boards at several theatres across the country.
All eyes now on Monday.
Houseful 3 Box Office Collections
- Friday – 15.21 crore

- Total - 52.51 crore

If you guys can quote BOI for Krrish 3 and Bang Bang collections why can’t I do the same….if you put a rule to ridicule someone with stupid BOI site…then let it be same for all….what say bruh?
@xrated dolly bindra aunty, 7:30 a.m , congratulations , now u r sure to win the ‘bawra hogaya kya award’ from all the indicine users for comparing collections of 2-3 year old released movies with the recent ones.
1. Ek tha tiger was released a year earlier than cè and it’s opening day occupancy was unprecedented & if I am not wrong it is yet to be broken , ce collected a mere 0.2 crores or more in a controversial , unconvincing & manipulated and that with higher ticket prices.
2.Hmmmm now coming to the comparison between PRDP & HNY , ok if u a brain answer me ,how can PRDP with HIGHER TICKET PRICES , MORE SCREENS & BETTER OCCUPANCY than hny earn less than the later and that too by such margin??? I know ur brain cannot answer , simply because it is ‘mathematically unlikely that hny can collect more than prdp’ , hny’s collections as usual were controversially & manipulatively adjusted , acc to BOI PRDP still holds the record for the highest opener of all time & the Bollywood’s first ever movie to cross 40 crore on a single day . And not to forget that while prdp was of typical family genre & was banking solely on salman’s shoulders & to an extent sooraj & it’s music… hny was an out & out masala commercial crap with deepika & hit music , never…… I repeat never again give the opening day credit of ce & hny to srk alone , without deepika or rohit both the movies would have hardly gone past 30 crores , give the credit where it is due , deepika alone has contributed nearly 25-30% of their opening day collections though life time is an another matter altogether :D :D
3.Jai ho vs fan , again a 2014’s movie compared with 2016 one ! Agreed jai ho was a more commercial movie ,released on more number of screens and after a long gap but still its average ticket prices were nearly 30-40% less than that of fan’s and jai ho’s opening day footfalls were more compared to fan , should I say more!
4.Dabaang 2 vs dilwale, again a 2012’s movie compared to a 2015 release ! Yes D2 had more number of screens, was sequel to a BB franchise and had superhit music but dilwale too was an out & out commercial crap of rohit along with kajol, varun & superhit music , the major difference being D2 had much lesser ticket price & dilwale was clashing with BM but that kind of evens out the things , just don’t forget that D2’s opening at its time was record breaking !
Let me put it in simpler words , salman’s every movie had higher footfalls on its first day than every respective movie of srk that u mentioned, so by that virtue Salman is bigger star than srk as far as opening is concerned and not just opening , every Salman movie on an average has more collections & footfalls than every srk movie since the last 6-7 years inspite of them all being average or above average with the exception of the cult classic BB.
if u want more than wait for opening day of sultan , you will get to know why he is called the emperor of Indian BO and after sultan’s release u will not even bark of the fake & manipulated opeenninngg day record of hny, just wait & watch .
@Abhi Thug: I never bashed hrithik….n bro I always n will bash amir bcoz of this keeda called abhay…from last 1 year iam reading his cheap comments on ajay sir and salman sir…and bro iam not new2 this site… Following this site from last3 years
AK is one of my fave actors. Haven’t been able to watch all his movies, but love some like OMG, Holiday, Baby, Special 26, and the awesome one this year, Airlift. Good to know that HF doing well at BO. Never really care about what the critics said, I will judge it on my own LOL Even if the story not good, at least I can enjoy AK in comedy…I know he’s great in it :D
Lots of love from Indonesia :))
@deadpool get some mind
when it comes to k3 or bang bang you guys starts screaming boi…..boi
and when it comes to akki movies you fired out boi collections
if sib and brothers had collected above 20 crore ,then k3 and bang bang also collected 244 crores and 181 crores resp.
@Abhishek Thug, dude first look at the language of this gatarchaap Keeda @Ajay Salman fan. He is bashing Aamir constantly on his articles. More over he is renting same craps like boycott dangal and bla bla bla. I don’t even care about any actors except Aamir and hrithik. I didn’t even used to visit Ajay or Salman articles. But his cheapest creature fans like @Ajay moron fan andon’t few other salman fans, I am bashing them and I will continue to bash them if they don’t stop. I wished Aamir on his birthday, first check all comments on his 3 birthday articles, you will see my comments in one of those articles. I will bash Ajay untIl this creature @Ajay salman fan doesn’t stop.
@Abhay Fake-hotra, chamaleons I have had enough of your rawhide Sawant cum Dolly Bindra drama. Please come out to your original form you loser. U must be either joker fan, or flop talentless arjun Kapoor fan.
My sincere warning to all, just ignore this moron @Abhay Fake-hotra. He is chamaleon and trying to create mess with Aamir fans to other fan bases. There is also another chamaleon @Ajay salman fan who is pretending to be Ajay fan, but Ajay and salman fans never bash Aamir so he is fan of none of them, but also some chamaleon. These 2 guys are creating unnecessary mess. So please ignore and let them bark till their entire life and keep making them try. Thanks.
@REW1: soo much frustation…. get well soon bro… u b Sportive… Bashing is everywhere…fans wars r common when a moron like Abhay talks cheap about other stars….. There is no rule that only one star must b favorite… I have 2 fav Ajay sir and Salman sir …so any problem u have bro?….
@Asif, you moron clown, koyla was supporting actor to Megastar Aamir Khan. Ishq was hit only because of Aamir, not that clown koyla. And good joke, srk and salman have 3 times more fans than numero uno megastar Aamir Khan? Only in Jupiter or Mars may be. No chance in this planet. Aamir has 5 times more fan following then fanless flop stars srk and salman.
@ Fake Ajay Salman fan, I don’t need to get well soon. I am already well. you need to get well soon. I have been reading your moronic anti aamir comments for many days, and I ignored you. better stop otherwise i will never consider you ajay and salman fan, but rather consider you a chameleon. I did the same to @Abhay, because both of you are chameleons and spreading negativeness all the way. One more time i will see you barking any rubbish against aamir, and i will expose you in front of everyone. And mind your language before you talk to me next time.
@Koyla Lallu fan, as if that you are a saint who never talks cheap about anyone. you dumbass chamaleon, i will continue to bash your loser koyla and lallu untill you learn respecting MEGASTAR AAMIR KHAN. shut up and look at yourself in mirror before telling others. you are the most ugly creature in the world.
@Asif: bro tell that tingu Abhay that amir has huge fans in his dreams… guyz all of u boycott Deshdrohis Dangal….
@Fake Ajay salman fan, even i also like salaman and ajay. Ajay and salmam fans never bash Aamir and vice versa, But you seem like a chamaleon because you are bashing Aamir unnecessarily. I also bashed @Abhay who is bashing salman and ajay. You both are chamaleons. So don’t ask me any thing, better open your real face you chamaleon.
@rew1…moron keep quiet…dont talk rubbish in frustation…I know u and suchit both r same…y r u using 2 different names coward…show ur real face
@Fake Ajay fan, moron stop crying. You have multiple ids. You split personality disorder patient, stay in your limits chamaleon.
