Firstly, it's a comedy and this genre has usually clicked with the audience. Also, after a long time a multi-starrer has released, so there has been a lot of curiosity surrounding the film. In the next two days, we should know where the film is heading."

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh says, "Though it fetched unfavourable reviews, the film has managed to draw in audiences and this is why it has clocked in good numbers."

Vishal Anand of Fun Cinemas says that this month, Holiday: A Soldier is Never Off Duty has got the best collections so far. "It has done remarkably well; in fact, it's the second film, after 2 States, to cross the Rs 100 crore mark this year."
