Nithin and Samantha's "A...Aa" has did decent business at the worldwide box office in its second week. The movie has inched closer to the Rs. 70-crore mark in 15 days.
"A...Aa," which grossed Rs. 51.92 crore worldwide in its first week, clashed with new Telugu releases like "Okka Ammayi Thappa" and "Right Right," which forced it out of some cinema halls in the second week. The movie showed over 50 percent drop in its business on its second Friday and was rock-steady on the following days.
The Trivikram Srinivas-directed romance drama collected approximately Rs. 9.43 crore in its second weekend and Rs. 6.05 crore on the weekdays. "A...Aa" has collected approximately Rs. 15.48 crore at the worldwide box office in its second week and its 15-day global gross has reached Rs. 67.40 crore, according to Andhra Box Office.
In its second week, "A...Aa" has earned Rs. 8.9 crore for its global distributors, whose 15-day total share has now reached Rs. 44.38 crore. Its worldwide theatrical rights sold for Rs. 30.50 crore. Besides recovering their investments, the movie has fetched a big profit share of Rs. 13.88 crore, which is over 45 percent of the distributors' investment.
In its third week, "A...Aa" has the biggest challenge in the form of "Gentleman," which released on June 17. The Nani-starrer has forced the Nithin-starrer out of several cinema halls across the globe and is also taking a toll on its collection, having become the first choice for many film-goers. It remains to be seen how "A...Aa" performs at the ticket counters this week.
