The Anusha Rizvi directed and Aamir Khan produced `Peepli [Live]` got off to a good opening (given its face value) at big cities and high end multiplexes and an average start at the small centres. Trade feels that will prove to be A1 thanks to brand Aamir Khan. The starless `Peepli [Live]` has also sprung a huge surprise in the US.

The Abhay Deol and Sonam Kapoor starrer `Aisha` had a decent first week though it has somewhat disappointed during its weekdays. Still, the film may turn out to be a break-even preposition, once the non theatrical rights are accounted for. `Aisha` has been rejected in the Overseas.

However, that is a redundent criteria for judging the success of a film these days. The Ajay-Emraan starrer is expected to touch the semi-hit status in the coming weeks. `Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai` though is a washout in the Overseas.
