Inside on Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office performance

Talking about the film's opening weekend business, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh had tweeted, “THE SITAARE SHINE BRIGHT IN THE OPENING WEEKEND... #SitaareZameenPar hits it out of the park in its opening weekend, with business multiplying hour by hour, day by day – delivering outstanding numbers across its first three days. #SitaareZameenPar relied heavily on urban audiences and high-end multiplexes beyond the metros to drive its business – and the target audience welcomed it with open arms. In today's digital age, word of mouth travels faster than ever – be it positive or negative – and #SitaareZameenPar has clearly benefitted... The day-on-day growth in business has been phenomenal. While the contribution from urban centres has been exceptional, mass pockets, too, have witnessed good to decent gains over the weekend. All eyes are now on the weekday trends… The crucial Monday will play a decisive role in determining the film's long-term trajectory.”

Sitaare Zameen Par is directed by RS Prasanna.

It also stars Genelia D'Souza.
