| The new releases of this week, YRF`s `Band Baaja Baaraat` and Anees Bazmee`s `No Problem` were expected to bring back the good times to the box-office. Unfortunately, the opening varied from weak to dull. But there is light at the end of the tunnel as both films have seen a noticable pick up. It needs to be seen if it is good enough! |

Though the Abhishek-Deepika starrer `Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Se` was not expected to set the box-office on fire but the horrific start and poor weekend of the historical has shocked the trade.

Ram Gopal Varma`s Rakht Charitra 2` was never expected to do well (as it was the sequel of a flop film) and that is what happened.

After a slow start Danish Aslam’s `Break Ke Baad` saw no miraculous pick up and had a poor run. Though it has had a poor theatrical run, One must add here that the 50 percent of its cost that `break Ke Baad` recovered from non-theatrical revenues, makes it a safe project for the producers. The film has also failed in the Overseas.

Total Earnings: India Rs. 0.65 crore |

Despite all the critical acclaim `Allah Ke Bandey` has poor numbers to show and is a washout as it saw no divine intervention to save it.
