Bang Bang Has Biggest Opening At Multiplexes Of 2014
Thursday 02 October 2014 12.00 IST
Box Office India Trade Network

Bang Bang took an extraordinary start all over with multiplexes recording the best opening of the year. Overall the film opened to occupancies of around 70-75%. The multiplexes recorded better occupancies than films like Kick and Singham Returns while mass pockets like CP Berar and CI were less than Singham Returns (Kick was affected by pre eid in these pockets).

The opening of Bang Bang in the North is phenomenal matching Dhoom 3 in Delhi city and East Punjab. In terms of occupancies the opening can match and even beat at places any release in the last few years but it has a lower screen count than most of the other releases.

If we compare (Bang Bang, Hindi) with this years big openers it is 350 screens less Singham Returns and 500 plus screens less than Kick which will make a difference in the final first day number. Still it will be a huge first day and if it does stay 10-15% less than the 30 crore nett plus openers it will mainly be due to the screen count as the potential to collect is less than other big releases due to less screenings.

    Haider Takes A Good Opening
    Thursday 2 October 2014 11.30
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Haider had a good opening of around 50% especially at premium multiplexes where it recorded over 45-50% occupancies in the first show. The film has been released on around 1250 screens which will be seen as a low screen count but is actually the right screen for a film such as Haider.

    Haider is a film which will appeal to a limited audience so if it is to well the release also has to be limited. Films like this which have done well have always been tight releases with right selection of theatres and timings. So if Haider has the content the clash with Bang Bang may prove beneficial as otherwise the film would have gone much wider which makes a second week crash inevitable as it has a limited audience. But the key is content, it has to be liked by the public.

    The film will put up a healthy total on day one, it will look low compared to some other films due to screen count but it will be one of the higher totals for a film releasing in the screen count range as haider over the last few years. Despite the clash with big budget Bang Bang, the opening of the film gives it a solid chance at the box office it the word of mouth is positive.

    My prediction is Bangbang will make around 150-160cr total and Haider will end up around 100cr.

    Haider will start slow but will catch up soon and have longer life in cinemas in coming weeks.

    Bang Bang To Edge Past Kick
    Thursday 02 October 2014 23.30
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Bang Bang will just edge past Kick for the second biggest biggest opening of the year but will be well below Singham Returns figure. The Hindi version of the film should be able to cross 25 crore nett with the high end of the range going to around 27 crore nett. Although it is short of record levels despite being a national holiday, it is still a very good total as whenever there has been a clash, the sharing of screen space ensures business is hit.

    The film is being screened on 15% less screens than some of the big releases and that amounts for a quite a bit when films are collecting around the 30 crore nett region.

    If we compare with Kick it does not compare well as Kick grossed 25 crore nett on Pre Eid while Bang Bang is likely to be only a bit higher on a national holiday but its possible that the clash with Haider cancels out the holiday factor. Meanwhile Haider will collect around 5-6 crore nett on a limited release.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      boi continues to overrate pre eid . everyone knows how much kick grossed on eid day. then it says bb is affected due to good amount of screens given to haider. but haider has got only 5-6 cr on 1250 screens as per boi. so what does that say about haider!

      • Man in a Suit 10 years ago

        LOL Baba

        Forget pre-eid yesterday was a national holiday you are not taking it into account.

        Plus bang bang has not worked in tier 2 and tier 3 cities mostly where haider has minimum screens. At multiplexes where haider has its target audience, Bang Bang has performed exceptionally there.

        Small cities have registered 30% -45% occupancy for the day for Bang Bang.

        3500 odd screens means a 100% capacity of 40 cr, here on a holiday it has earned 27 which is 67.5% of its capacity

        • Baba 10 years ago

          why to forget pre eid? kick had done 50 percent of its capacity on its first day without any competion and more screens.

          • Man in a Suit 10 years ago

            LOL then take that

            what is good then

    Haider First Day Business
    Friday 03 October 12.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Haider grossed 5.25-5.50 crore nett on day one with a limited release. The film had very dull collections at single screens and most of the business of the film came from multiplexes. The film did reasonable occupancies at multiplexes but with just 1 screen or two screens in the bigger multiplex it could not really go anywhere.

    Its a long extended holiday period and with a limited release it can hold through the holiday period but it depends on the public word of mouth. The film is depending on collections in Delhi and Punjab which are pretty good on day one and Mumbai and Bangalore to pick up. The rest have fared poorly.

    The plus is an extended weekend and no major opposition for three weeks but that only comes into play if the film can hold its collections today.

    Bang Bang Has Very Good First Day

    Bang Bang had a very good first day grossing around 24.75 crore nett in hindi and around 1.25 crore nett in Tamil and Telugu. The film scored very well in multiplexes but the collections in mass pockets were not as strong as they should be and some single screens saw falls in the last two shows which may be a cause for concern going forward.
    The film fared best in Delhi/UP, East Punjab and South India. South India was fantastic be it Nizam, Mysore and Tamil Nadu/Kerala. Mumbai circuit was a let down as the Gujarat/Saurashtra belt had average figures. It was a similar story in Rajasthan CP Berar and CI.

    The film has an extended five day weekend to put up a huge total but the problem could be mass centres going the trend on day one. The film is likely to fare better at multiplexes over the weekend and in the long run. The key is a strong hold today. The first day figures are third best of the year after Singham Returns and Kick and the best ever for a Hrithik Roshan starrer.

    Bang Bang Has Another Good Day
    Friday 03 October 2014 23.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Bang Bang is set to have strong second day with business heading to around the 20 crore nett mark. It was a holiday for Dusshera in many parts of the country so the drop is not huge as it would be if it was a normal working day. But on the other side collections could have held better especially where it was holiday.

    The collections have fallen further in mass centres where it was not so strong on day one and South India has fallen where on day one it set records at places or was near record at other places. The strongest hold in in Delhi city and East Punjab where collections show a limited drop. The film will have a big two day total in the 45 crore nett range for the Hindi version.

    There are puja’s and garba’s going on at various parts of the country which do hit business and then there are holidays in one state on one day and another state on another day which means the wait will be for Tuesday when business will settle and if markets like CP Berar, Gujarat, Rajasthan etc settle at a good level on Tuesday the film will be set for a good run till Happy New Year releases.

          in 4 days kick earned 95 cr according to boi u think Bang Bang will do 50 crs on day 3 n 4 ?

          Your Box Office knowledge needs some catching up to do.

          It has not crashed but its trending the way singham R did it was good on holidays then suddenly fell if BB drops below 10 cr on tuesday which looks highly possible what will u call that?

          Forget BB comparsion with kick it cannot touch kick start comparisons with Singham R

    Haider Set To Surprise On Day Two
    Friday 03 October 2014 23.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Haider has shown a good trend on Saturday as collections are set to be higher even though day one was a national holiday while day two is a holiday in only parts of the country. The release which was limited by default as Bang Bang released on the same day always had a chance of proving beneficial but growth after a holiday was not expected.

    The film could go up 20% on Friday to over 6 crore nett. The collections could even be a bit higher. Haider was given no chance at the boxoffice against Bang Bang but it seems set to surprise with a healthy extended weekend.

    Obviously its well short of the collections of Bang Bang but its got a good trend and if this continues the clash may actually work in its favour as in real terms the release is perfect and no major competition for three weeks.

    If this trend continues or collections hold at these levels over the five day weekend it can come out with a 30 crore nett figure which will be pretty good but then the real test will be Tuesday.

    Haider Has Low Weekend But Decent Trend
    Monday 06 October 2014 11.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Haider had a low four day weekend of around 23 crore nett but the collections were decent for its release and the trend was also decent. The best business has come in the Delhi NCR area. The approx business of the of Haider till date is as follows.

    Friday – 6,00,00,000
    Saturday – 5,50,00,000
    Sunday – 6,25,00,000

    TOTAL – 23,00,00,000

    Tuesday is the key for Haider because the way Bang Bang has gone it is unlikely to sustain so if Haider can sustain which is a possibility it is likely to good business until the release of Happy New year without much opposition as the main opposition Bang Bang will be struggling.

    Bang Bang Good Weekend But Struggles On Sunday
    Monday 06 October 2014 11.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Bang Bang (hindi) had a good four day weeeknd of around 80 crore nett but the way the film has trended its very unlikely to sustain at the box office. The approx business of the hindi version of Bang bang till date is as follows.

    Thursday – 24,75,00,000
    Friday – 20,50,00,000
    Saturday – 17,00,00,000
    Sunday – 18,00,00,000

    TOTAL – 80,25,00,000

    The film hardly showed any growth on Sunday with many circuits having similar business on Sunday to Saturday. The film has put up a good total over the first four days which will save it but with the advantage of the first four days being holidays it should have been a much bigger total. Basically Bang Bang has grossed the same in four days which were all holidays to what Kick did with a Pre Eid release.

    There is another holiday on Monday for Eid which should give another healthy total but after that its likely to be a struggle for the film and the film will not be a huge hit it should have been with such a favourable release date.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      last time they had called agneepath a rejected film on second day of its release(!) but were reporting numbers closer to producers. this time they are also underreporting alongwith with their vicious commentaries.

      ” Basically Bang Bang has grossed the same in four days which were all holidays to what Kick did with a Pre Eid release.”

      is there a more sillier and communal comment than this? they have also included sat as “holiday” for BB but when it comes to khan film, it grossed less due to “pre eid”! (as if india is a country of muslims) and very conveniently forgetting that it was a solo release on higher screens. it looks like thier idea is to keep BB under kick/singham and just above jai ho.

    Top Opening Weekends 2014 – KICK Tops BANG BANG Third
    Monday 06 October 2014 19.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Bang Bang had a good weekend of 62 crore nett plus but considering the period with day one being a national holiday and the next two days being holidays for Dusshera the film should have grossed higher. Kick leads the charts and the 80 crore nett it grossed came Pre Eid which is a dull period in many circuits across the country.

    The business of Bang Bang in its first three days is even 14 crore nett less than Singham Returns. The film was totally let down by mass circuits where collections were on the lower side be it Rajasthan, CI or Gujarat. In the Gujarat/Saurashtra belt the three day business of Bang Bang was similar to just the opening day of Singham Returns

    The opening performance of Bang Bang is similar to Jai Ho. The difference being Bang Bang having two extra holiday but a bit of that is levelled out by the competition of Haider. Below are the top opening weekends of 2014.

    Trade rejoice as business in Bollywood soar riding on ‘Bang Bang’

    Top trade analyst Komal Nahta is delighted about Bang Bang’s record breaking collection. He says, “Bang Bang has done remarkably well and has become the highest opening film in hrithik’s career so far. A 4-day net total of Rs. 94 crore is huge! What’s also very creditable is the $6 million weekend Overseas! B.O. figures like these are not seen very often.”

    Bang Bang, directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Fox Star Studios, has made multiple records in India and overseas territories over the weekend. On day one, it blasted itself into the top 5 openers of all time in Bollywood.

    The out-and-out entertainer has maintained it’s dominance at the counters through the weekend. The film’s opening marked Hrithik Roshan biggest opening of his career and Katrina Kaif now has three movies in the top 5 openers of all time.

    Bang Bang is being appreciated widely by audiences. The film is complete masala, family entertainer.

    Vijay Singh, CEO, Fox Star Studios, says, “Bang Bang has smashed many records and is now the top 5 Bollywood openings of All Time in India & Internationally. The film has held strongly through the weekend and has opened bigger than Krrish 3, making it Hrithik’s biggest film to date. It’s a complete family entertainer & paisa vasool film & has action like Bollywood has not seen before. The word of mouth on the film is great & Bang Bang looks poised to have a great run through the week and the second weekend.”

    Bang Bang and Haider Fail To Score Big Over Holiday Period
    Thursday 09 September 2014 11.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    The last week was probably the best period ever for potential collections with holiday after holiday but both films have failed to get the best out of them due to content. There have been major holidays or partial holidays and a Sunday over six of the last seven days. This sort of week has probably never happened before.

    The two releases Bang Bang and Haider failed to make the best out of the period. Neither films are flops but when you have such a fantastic opportunity with holidays galore, the results should be better. The clash was there but it made little difference as Haider got the release required. Bang Bang could have had more screens but with such spare capacity it would have made little difference.

    Bang Bang is heading for a Ra.One or Jai Ho type of result where the makers will at best cover cost like Ra.One or there will be losers like in Jai Ho, here it will be the producers who could lose 5-10% of the investment. Haider will be a plus for the makers because Shahid Kapoor is on profit sharing as well as the directer who is co producer as well. But profits will be so low that it will mean the Shahid Kapoor and the directer have practically worked free. The scenario is different for Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif who got a big remuneration as well as the directer of the film.

    The collections in mass circuits have been the killer. The business of Bang Bang has been low in UP, Gujarat, CI, Rajasthan and CP Berar while Haider is hardly on the rador with very low collections in these areas but that was sort of expected as film only for a small section of the audience.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      LOL.last i heard ra1 was a bonafide hit in the books of boi and now thye are saying ra1 just about recovered costs/made losses. ra1 had crashed after its holiday while BB has not. same with jao ho. did boi talk about the content of these films then?

      so far i havent said anything on haider’s BO as i was yet to see the film. since its first day when it started on 5 cr on 1250 screens, it has been basically alternating with an increase and decrease of 0.5 cr since the last 6 days.when the film opens this low, can it go any lower? a 0.5 cr increase for haider is labelled by boi as some kind of “good trending” and when it goes 0.5 cr lower it is said to be “holding well” ๐Ÿ˜€

      it says BB is not working in single screens and in one report it said haider is dojng business closer to BB in plexes, then how there is so much difference in thier collections in weekday? i understand that the khan-pr blog wants to paint BB as the next jai ho and ra1 but atleast dont hype BO failures like haider for it!

    Haider Has Decent First Week
    Friday 10 October 2014 11.30 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Haider grossed a decent 35 crore nett in its extended eight day first week and held up fairly well over the eight days but the problem for the film is its very niche and the collections are coming mainly from the premium multiplexes so there is a limit to where the film can go.

    The film has done its best business in the Delhi NCR belt with the Delhi/UP and East Punjab circuits recording decent figures, Mysore was also fair while West Bengal was helped by holidays for Puja. Mumbai circuit was the disappointment as Mumbai city and Pune should have done better. The mass circuits were dull.

    Haider will have a decent hold in week two and should have lifetime business of around 50 crore nett which is an average result..

    Bang Bang Has Good First Week But Trend Not Good
    Friday 10 October 2014 11.30 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Bang Bang (Hindi) had a good extended eight day first week of around 115 crore nett but considering the amount of holidays that were there the collections were not as good as they should be. Also on the weekdays its decent hold was due to holidays but when there are holidays the hold should not be decent but good. At centres where there was no holiday from Tuesday onwards the film did show noticeable drops in collections.

    The trend does not look good for week two as it will not get support of holidays. The best case scenario for the film looks around 150 crore nett for lifetime business. It is possible it may fall short of that mark and much will depend on the business in the second weekend.

    The film has collected well in multiplexes of big centres but it was the business of multiplexes and single screens in B and C centres which let the film down. The collections across the Hindi belt were not up to the mark. Only Bihar was good but that had holidays for Puja. Gujarat, CP Berar, CI, Rajasthan and UP all had average to above average figures which is not good for a film of this scale.

      • Baba 10 years ago

        that is how it operates. its a wishful thinking , not a ratinal BO commentary.they already have 20 cr difference with BB in 8 days. thats more than 2 cr per day.apparently rakesh roshan is still manipulating numbers ๐Ÿ˜‰ on monday they said BB will struggle for the week but it trended well. infact its holding better than haider.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      the credit of d3 was exclusively taken by aamir as he was the only one giving interviews. katrina , abhishek were pissed with their insignificant roles and stayed away. katrina never gave a single interreview after d3 release while abhishek gave one where he clearly mentioned he was not happy with the film. while for BB, its a film which worked due to the leads and the film has parity. a balance for both. infact katrina is the protagonist, the one who ties all ends.that is why you can katrina giving interviews and getting credit for the movie equally. swhe is happy with the film and i am happy for her.

  42. Baba 10 years ago

    Haider Collections Down On Its Second Friday
    Saturday 11 October 2014 11.30 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    The collections of Haider came down a lot on its second Friday as it collected in the 1.35-1.45 crore nett region. The fall is around 80% from its first Friday which was the second day of release for the film..

    Haider had held up well in the first seven days of release but the drop came on day eight and a further drop on day nine. This is mainly as it only has an audience at premium multiplexes and the audience at other places has not appreciated it. The premium multiplexes of Delhi NCR have held pretty well and now are collecting more than Bang Bang when day one had started at 70% lower than Bang Bang.

    Haider should collect around 6-6.50 crore nett in its second weekend and lifetime business will find it hard to reach 50 Crore nett, probably falling a crore or two short.

    Bang Bang Has Big Drop On Second Friday
    Saturday 11 October 2014 11.00 IST
    Box Office India Trade Network

    Bang Bang (Hindi) dropped badly on its second Friday as it collected around 3-3.25 crore nett. the drop is a huge 85% from last Friday which was the second day of the film. The drop is huge despite no competition from the new releases.

    The film will struggle to put up a strong second week total and the film is unlikely to hit the 150 crore nett. The cracks were there in the collections earlier but holidays in various parts of the country made the all India daily collections reasonable. The second weekend of the film is liely to be around the 13 crore nett mark.

    The second Friday collections are less than Kick, Holiday – A Solidier IS Never Off Duty, 2 States, Singham Returns and Jai Ho. It is the ninth day for Bang Bang as compared to eight for the other films but a 3 crore second Friday is low for a like Bang Bang which is much bigger budget than the films above. The second Friday is nearly 50% less than what Hrithik Roshan’s last film Krrish 3 grossed on its second Friday.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      Last friday of BB was a national holiday! D3 which released on normal day had more than 70% drop on its second friday. did boi talk about this? It is trying to imagine that bangbang will find it difficult to recover its cost. When the case was about ra1 or ghajini, it was never about ROI for boi!

      Let me go by ROI method.Lets take the highest budget being circulated – 140 cr.it has made 135 cr in week 1 so 81 cr Dist share from india at 60%.it has made 57 cr in overseas, 45% DS is 25 cr.Thats 106 cr from theatres in only one week. add satellite 40 cr(lowest possible figure). 10 cr for music/dvd/dth/other rights.thats 156.it is already standing at a profit of rs 16 cr. Compare this to ghajini which made only 15 cr profits. Even if one goes by the manipulated nos of Boi, BB is still in green zone. When it suits them , its the gross which is important and not the ROI and vice versa. On each of these counts, their strategy doenst work unfortunately.

      “holidays in various parts of the country made the all India daily collections reasonable.” LOL. that is the cleverness of the makers that they released it at the right time.A film doesnt have to be the biggest grosser ever to be a bonafide hit. OSO could not overtake dhoom 2. dabang, ett, bg could not beat 3i . dabang 2 did 10% more than dabang. jthj made 12 cr more than sos! don2 barely recoverd its cost.did boi ever say these are underperformers?boi seems butthurted that a non-khan’s film overtook jai ho , jthj in 6 days flat!

      Baba ji is bit biased towards Hrithiks movies so no worries ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Baba 10 years ago

      No. Agent vinod was a “classic” while BB is just a fun film. It is also not a “classic drama” like Dhoom 3 :-; thats why I liked it.many critics have said that its a Hrithik film. I don’t agree. Its a film where kat is protagonist. The sutradhar n a film which made me fall in love with her all over again! In d3 she was reduced to guest appearance in item songs.

      on the bo support, my jung is against Khan pr n that will never end.

      • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

        Ok, I understand.

        I think Hrithik has lost it by posing / projecting himself as a hollywood hero long back.

        Anil Kapoor does it too, but he is more aged than Hrithik and so its ok for western crowd. Irrfan doesnt do it even in accent (a bit maybe) so he is ok.

        Hrithik’s ambition of hollywood has killed him even in domestic market.

        I remember his interviews in stardust/filmfare how he can be THE best Bond ever. And then I saw him speaking on TV on same lines. He is more Ghulam of Hollywood hangover than Saif/Kareena/who-so-ever. No wonder public of India rejected him as major competiotion to No. 1 !!

        • Baba 10 years ago

          I don’t think BB was made like hollywood film.its a typical bollywood.infact there are some portions/ charecter which shud hv been holywoodised. Danny who is main villian in this is an outated actor. they shud hv taken vidyut as vilian. His showdown with Hrithik at the end wud hv added the right excitement n freshness
          เคฟ

        • yakuza 10 years ago

          Baba .. first time i agree with you on Vidyut bit .. his presence as villain against Hritik would have been dhamaka.

          • Baba 10 years ago

            thanks. it means a lot to me ๐Ÿ˜‰ yes infact there is a chance vidyut will overshadow him. he is too good. talk about acting , physique, looks, action skills. that might be the reason why he was not taken in holiday when he was the villina in thupakki.the only thing he doesnt seem to have is good contacts. it beats me how talentless piece of shit like sushant singh rajput keep getting films and not him

          • Baba 10 years ago

            i have issues against casting of old villains for young stars.I mean the hero can beat up young guys 4-5 at a time easily and in the climax struggles for a good 5-10 min before he beats up the old guy. this is a stereotype and needs to be removed from films.it doesnt look believable. A guy beating up 4-5 normal guys and then taking time to pin down someone like vidyut seems believable but not villians like danny etc

      See my comment below first.

      Also, lets say these numbers by fox are indeed correct and true. Are you happy the movie made 165 crores so far and looks to be closing at around 180-190 crores by the end of its run? Wasnt it supposed to be the biggest actioner ever and expected to surpass that crapfest called Dhoom 3?

      • Baba 10 years ago

        i am happy if i an enjoy a film. so i am happy with BB. BO success is a bonus. normally i wudnt care to debate on BO so much. but when i see some ppl vouching for boi and their silly tactics (just another crook in the BO business) , i feel like i should have some fun ๐Ÿ˜‰

          @BB being a hit : I couldnt care less, frankly. Its good if its a hit. That means fox can pour more money into its forthcoming projects and overall, the film industry is benefited. In any case, Hrithik has benefited only a little from the movie, especially after not being able to surpass BO records as much as expected. He still needs that bonafide blockbuster like Dhoom 2 which can help him stamp his superstardom all over. Then again, who cares, as long as he does some good films on the side as well. ๐Ÿ™‚

            I dont think a star benefits from a film only if he has the biggest grosser of that time. firstly d3 was a solo release with widest screens and increased ticket prices. it had the brand dhoom of dhoom 1 and dhoom 2. if d3 opening was solely due to aamir, then what hapened to talaash and dhobi ghat? ๐Ÿ˜€ .d3 was the biggest grosser of 2013 but it dented aamirs reputation and his performance was bashed by almost all major critics.katrina had guest apperance in item songs.
            BB with lesser screens than d3 and kick beat the day 1 one of kick. boi expected it t crash like ra1 which never happened.BB might not be the biggest grosser of this year but here hrithik has not received such extreme reactions from even the most negative reviews on BB.

    haahaah biggest joke of the century, it should be in reverse who follows producres nos. in india except some who change their preferences wid time, the oldest and most reliable BO provider site in india is BOI whether u except it or not, it doesnt matter, par lagta hay jalan kuch ziada hi hay coz of way below under perf of crap bang bang despite five holidays and open 3 weeks the best period this year for any mov for release.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      hakloo – sounds like a tribute ID to srk ๐Ÿ˜‰ the oldest BO guys are komal nahta and taran adarsh. boi came much later. its an anonymous website with headquarters in some foreign country.i dont know about others but i have always bashed boi and komal and taran. for me they are all the same and figures of each of them should not be taken at face value. one should aply his own mind instead of swallowing what they vomit.

      • halakoo 9 years ago

        another big joke, applying own mind in facts and figures, jai ho mahshe aap ki ke facts and figures me bhi mind apply kar rahe hay. for me i always followed BOI nos. for every event mov boi face rath from die hard fans, they only except those who quote higher nos. same is the case with u. dont mind but u r not less than a fan boy who tries to sound intellectual but no way near it.

    Studio Prodigalโ€™s Desperate Moves

    They may go hoarse in the face insisting that theyโ€™ve delivered a hit in their recent overpriced actioner, but the trade is sniggering at this studioโ€™s inflated box-office numbers and its refusal to accept that recovery of investment is an unlikelihood in the case of their latest film. Insiders at the studio are closely watching the desperate measures that the honchos must take to maximise revenues.

    Turns out the marketing department had lined up a cross-promotional tie- up with a leading electronics brand for the film, and had received roughly a dozen high-end smart- phones and tablets as part of the deal. As the bosses scurried around looking for just about any means to bridge the wide gap between the filmโ€™s landing cost and its collections, one smart-alec executive reportedly came up with the bright idea to sell off these electronic items received in lieu of the deal and add the money received from the sale to the filmโ€™s recovery numbers. A junior was apparently entrusted with the responsibility of signing up on a popular trading website and peddling the items.

    The amount from the sale, as you can imagine, will likely be peanuts, given the filmโ€™s ridiculously high budget. But this incident is clearly a good indication of just how pressed-to-the-wall the studio is over this expensive folly of a film.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      ironically, it looks like a desperate attempt by khan paid critic masand to fool the public. you cant fool all the ppl all the time. boi made a mistake by targeting bb just after k3. k3 has difference of 60 cr from prodcuers numbers while there is 30cr+ difference in 12 days for BB!. at that time it was apparently rakesh roshan who was overreporting! now its fox whose overreporting numbers were but the same were vouched for by srk fans during mnik ๐Ÿ˜‰ what this does is those who have may doubted k3s figures and showed some faith in boi initially will be even more convinced about boi’s tactics and the khan pr campaign.

      • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

        Actually what it proves is it … its Hrithik who manupulates. And he is open and exposed now.

        • Baba 10 years ago

          yes apparently rakesh roshan is the one who is actually manipulating BB numbers. fox is actually a “ghost” producer ๐Ÿ˜‰

          • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

            :/ i trust only krk and Girish Johar and BOI.

        another joke, r u here for jokes, no one convinced other than u, dont force your utter nonsense perception on us.

          no one if forcing anything on anyone. it looks like you are forcing attention on yourself way too much for your worth.

    @Baba : I am very surprised to see you act like a fanatic (ala Ank_16, Mate, tashan and some other maharathi who dont comment that often any more). Why the insistence and spamming with numbers just to prove Bang Bang has made money? You liked it, right? Then enjoy that part of it. ๐Ÿ™‚ Why care whether the rest of the world likes it or not and whether people are paying to see it or not?

    P.S. : Commenting only coz I felt this is out of character for you. Wouldnt have commented if it was one of the usual suspects doing this.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      shan – this site is owned by an srk fan/admirer so the max visitors it attracts are usually the khan fans and they have a habit of living in their own world. I had to be here to balance things out. infact this is the reason why i choose to be on tq ๐Ÿ™‚
      I dont think you know the meaning of spamming. i usually post official numbers, numbers from bwhungama/taran and komal nahta. sometimes i post links of big media houses like TOI to show that boi numbers are not being followed anymore. what it does is really irks the khan fans and i love it ๐Ÿ˜€

    • Baba 10 years ago

      regarding the other part of your comment,yes, i will make a comparative post on bangbang vs d3 vs kick vs holiday once the good quality scenes of BB are out. i had told this to sputnik before on fb in 1st week of oct. i tried uploading one scene from a dvdscr rip of bb i have but youtube blocked it and now my youtube account has 3 strikes and my account is likely to be suspended if i am reported once more so i am not taking any chances and waiting ๐Ÿ˜€

    BANG BANG – SEMI HIT -BOI

    Bang Bang has grossed 133 crore nett plus in two weeks but has dropping collections and is going no where. The third week has seen further drop and it will be a 140 crore nett finish on a best case scenario. SEMI HIT

    • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

      Bang Bang is a flop. Not a semi-hit.

    • Baba 10 years ago

      LOL! boi and its hilarious verdicts. if bb is a semi hit, then ghajini is overflow and ra1, jai ho, talaash are disasters.

      ritz – BB is a flop just like d3 is a classic drama. that is a figment of your wet dreams ๐Ÿ˜‰

      • cr7 10 years ago

        As usual generous verdict from BOI .

        • Baba 10 years ago

          yes very generous.thats is why there is 35 cr difference with the official numbers :3 and absolutely no reporting of the overseas of bb

      • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

        How can Talaash be called a disaster? By which parameter?

        • Baba 10 years ago

          https://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/aamir-khan-beats-srk-talaash-sold-for-90-crores/

          talaash had ds of around 72 cr from india and overseas. landing cost was 90cr+20-25 cr pnp = 110-115-110 cr.evenif you add satellite rights, it is still in losses.

          • Baba 10 years ago

            This is ghajini economics:

            Cost – 90 cr + 10 cr Pnp = 100 cr

            non theatrical revenues : (tv) 25 + (music/dvd/dth) 10 = 35 cr

            DS required : 100 – 35 = 65 cr

            India DS = 61

            overseas ds – 16

            total – 77 cr

            ROI – 77 – 65 = 12 cr

            “had spoken to both of them but things didnโ€™t work out.

            “We hear that Ghajini has been sold for Rs 90 crore.
            Right. And thatโ€™s because we have Aamir. After Rang De Basanti, Fanaa and Taare Zameen Par, Aamir has become the biggest property.”

          • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

            No way PnP was 20-25cr. Talaash was hardly publicized. Also the landing cost cant be that much as Aamir films are on share basis.

            I already know abt Ghajini and its BO status was only for it was the first film to achieve the landmark of 100+.

          • Baba 10 years ago

            talaash was one of the biggest films of 2012.it released in over 2800 screens.20 cr is an avg number for such a film.if it makes you happy, lower it to 10 cr pnp. story is more or less still the same! reliance bought the rights of the film for 90cr.

          • Anjanpur685Miles 10 years ago

            “it was biggest of 2012”

            I think then Aamir or excel did play a double game. On one side they sold film on heavy price and on another aamir kept promotions low-key and kept telling its niche film in every interview. Reliance also to be blamed – but they are corporates..dont have brain.

  69. yakuza 10 years ago

    Bang Bang – Semi Hit verdict is still generous verdict compare to 70’s/80’s era … when loss means flop, no two thoughts. Leave losses, even many big grossers with small profit margins were given flop verdict that time.

    Bang Bang – Semi Hit verdict is very HARSH verdict in contemporary system and not inline with BOI own verdict system (if any) …. If Singham is super Hit at 140 something .. How Bang-Bang can be Semi Hit only ? Many times BOI explained that only gross decide verdict .. not profit margins. So why indifferent now ? Even big gross of Jodha Akbar degraded to Semi Hit (and that was a genuine Hit movie with great trend).

    • Baba 10 years ago

      yakuza – the answer is simple. bcos boi is an anti-bachan/anti non-khan and a khan pr blog where huge lossmakers like ra1 gets hit. they keep changing their own system when it suits them
