John
Abraham
in
The
Diplomat.
Sikandar
is
all
set
to
take
over
the
screens
from
Sunday,
March
30.
Until
then,
the
holdover
releases
are
continuing
to
bring
on
moolah.
The
Diplomat
collected
around
Rs
6.50
crore*
(Rs
65
million)
in
its
second
weekend.
The
film
needed
to
have
a
stable
Friday
with
not
much
of
a
drop
when
compared
to
Thursday
and
this
is
what
happened,
as
Rs
1.27
crore
(Rs
12.7
million)
came
in,
not
too
far
away
Rs
1.44
crore
(Rs
14.4
million)
that
was
collected
the
day
before.
But
on
Saturday,
the
collections
almost
doubled
up
to
Rs
2.52
crore
(Rs
25.2
million).
The
John
Abraham
starrer
has
now
brought
in
Rs
26
crore*
(Rs
260
million).
The
film
will
go
on
collecting
right
up
to
Saturday,
since
Sikandar
arrives
on
Sunday,
and
so
it
may
be
looking
at
a
lifetime
of
over
Rs
35
crore
(Rs
350
million).
That
will
make
it
a
fair
success.
The
two
releases,
Tumko
Meri
Kasam
and
Pintu
Ki
Pappu
couldn’t
do
much,
and
their
collections
stayed
well
below
the
Rs
1
crore
(Rs
10
million)
mark.
*Estimates.
Note:
All
collections
as
per
various
box
office
sources.
