It was a double digit Tuesday for Housefull 5 as Rs. 11.70 crores came in. The first weekend for the film was quite good and then Monday held on well as well with Rs. 13.15 crores coming in. The key for the film was to stay stable on Tuesday as well with at least a double digit score coming in and that ended up happening indeed.

There was reduced ticket pricing at some centres on Tuesday, but that was also balanced out by Eid effect getting over, especially in North. It was an absolutely regular working day which means as long as over Rs. 10 crores came on, that would have been good enough. Yes, had the collections went over the Rs. 12 crores mark then it would have been even better. However, since the second week for the film is totally open, shortfall if any would be taken care of then.

The film has now collected Rs. 116.68 crores and the first week would easily cross Rs. 130 crores mark. Post that, it would be about how quickly does it march towards the Rs. 200 crores mark. By the look of things, the milestone would be accomplished in the third weekend and then whatever additional comes on top of it will take it towards the Rs. 225 crores mark, hence ensuring that Housefull 5 becomes the highest grossing instalment of the franchise for Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh and Sajid Nadiadwala.
