The opening of last Friday’s Milan Luthria directed Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi, Kangna Ranaut and Prachi Desai starrer, `Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai`, was slow to begin with but showed a remarkable pick up over the weekend. Trade feels that given the business so far, the film is likely to emerge as a good success (hit in Mumbai circuit), provided it carries on the good work till at least the second weekend. However, `Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai` is a washout in the Overseas.

Moving on to the Priyadarshan directed Akshay Kumar and Trisha Krishnan starrer , `Khatta Meetha`, had a mixed start but showed a positive and significant growth over the weekend.
