| This week saw two releases `Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya` and `Jodi Breakers`. With two films of similar genre releasing on the same day, business was bound to be divided, and that is precisely what has happened. However, as per initial reports barring circuits like Mysore and to an extent some multiplexes of Delhi city, it is the Ritesh-Genelia film `TNLHG` that has clearly dominated the Madhavan–Bipasha starrer. |

Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya |
| Starring: Imran Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, Boman Irani, Ram Kapoor, Ratna Pathak Shah |
| Genre: Romantic |
Recommended Audience: General |

After a dull to decent start, Shakun Batra’s `Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu` picked up noticeably during the weekend, but a big jump was clearly missing. The film was steady at the lower end during the weekdays (Valentine day saw good numbers). The Kareena-Imran starrer is an average fare but seeing the second weekend crash a ‘hit’ or even ‘semi-hit’ looks difficult if not impossible for the 37-38 crore (all inclusive) film. `Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu` has done wonderfully in the overseas (Imran’s best ever!).

| Valentine`s Night |
Verdict: Disaster |
| Weekly Earnings: - |
Total Earnings: - |
|
The other release of the week, `Valentine`s Night`, starring real life couple Payal Rohatgi and Sangram Singh failed to achieve any significant collections and is a washout.
|
| Gali Gali Chor Hai |
Verdict: Disaster |
| Weekly Earnings: India Rs. 0.10 crore |
Total Earnings: India Rs. 4.60 crore |
|
Meanwhile the Akshay Khanna and Shreya Saran starrer `Gali Gali Chor Hai` could not improve upon it’s dull start and has ended it’s run in the second week.

 |
| Agneepath (2012) |
Verdict: Super hit |
| Weekly Earnings: India Rs. 7 crore |
Total Earnings: India Rs. 120 crore ; UK£725,200 ; US$1,981,600 |
| PB Rating: 7.5 out of 10 |
Public Rating (by 381 unique users): 6.87 |
| Director: Karan Malhotra |
Producer: Karan Johar |
| Music: Ajay-Atul |
Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya |
| Starring: Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Sanjay Dutt, Rishi Kapoor |
| Genre: Drama |
Recommended Audience: Adult |
|
|
Concluding with Karan Malhotra’s `Agneepath`, the film managed to ward off the challenge from `EMAET` (ironically from the same banner!) as it saw another fruitful week. The Hrithik-Priyanka starrer is also an Overseas super hit.
