| This week`s two releases, `Pyaar Ka Punchnama` and `404` were dominated by the Hollywood venture `Pirates Of The Caribbian- On Stranger Tides`. However, `Pyaar Ka Punchnama` also managed a decent show, especially in Western India. The other release `404` was rejected from the first show, as also the dubbed `Kashmakash (`Naukadubi`). |
| Ragini MMS & Love U.. Mr. Kalakaar |
Verdict: Awaited |
| Weekly Earnings: - |
Total Earnings: - |
|
The battle between `Ragini MMS` & `Love U.. Mr. Kalakaar!` was comprehensively won by the former, especially if we add the earnings of the Telugu (dubbed) version. `Love U.. Mr. Kalakaar!` did well at select single screens of Central and North India, but that did not help the cause much. The other two releases of the week `Shagird` and `Stanley Ka Dabba` managed selective patronisation.
