Producer Karan Johar's  Kapoor & Sons was hit by the India vs Pakistan cricket match on Saturday, though the film managed to show growth of around 15% as it grossed INR Rs 7.50 crore nett approx. This takes the film’s two-day total to INR Rs 14 crore nett. It’s hard to judge how much the film lost to the cricket and it remains to be seen if it can cover up some business over the week.

Sunday being a holiday should make up some of the losses. Looks like, INR Rs 25 crore nett weekend would have been a decent result for the film but it won't get there. If the match was not there it may have made it!

The big negative is the business outside the 3-4 big metros. The collections remained poor in big contributing cities like Jaipur, Ludhiana and Ahmedabad and unless these places show big turnaround it’s hard to see the film go far in the long run.

Despite the Shakun Batra's Kapoor and Sons opened to rave reviews on Friday, the Alia Bhatt, Sidharth Malhotra and Fawad Khan starrer fate at the ticket window will be decided by its Monday business.
