Tamil film Bison Kaalamaadan held very well on its first working day, collecting Rs. 3.75-4 crore approx at the Indian box office. In Tamil Nadu, the film dropped less than 50 per cent from the previous day, collecting Rs. 3.50 crore, which is a very good hold coming off the holiday period. There was still some residual holiday effect in play, but it was closer to normal.
The film went ahead of Dude (Rs. 3.25 crore) in Tamil Nadu yesterday on its sixth day, when its first day was less than half. Even though Dude has performed quite well, just that Bison has been much better. The total gross in Tamil Nadu stands at over Rs. 29 crore. It will be closing its first week at around Rs. 32 crore. The film should comfortably cross Rs. 50 crore, depending on how well it does in its second week
