But, the response at SS has been amazing and the advance booking is superb. So, the film will collect bountiful at the SS.<br \/>\nA big egg on the face of people who says SRK does not have SS pull or romance doesn&#8217;t sell in SS \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\nAt this time, it is expected that JTHJ will get around 2700 screens and SOS will get around 1700.<\/p>\n<li><strong>What is the max capacity?<\/strong><br \/>\nEk Tha Tiger did some 31 crores on its opening day with 3300 screens. JTHJ and SOS together will have a 4500 screen release. So, I believe the max capacity on a single day is 41-42 crores which will be tested on 14th November, the day after Diwali.\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Now back to the numbers-<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Assuming both movies have decent-to-good WOM:<br \/>\nOpening day &#8211; Due to Diwali Puja, collections will be affected in the evening and night shows. Total potential might be around 22-24 crores. JTHJ &#8211; 14 crores, SOS &#8211; 9 croes.<br \/>\nDiwali Day &#8211; Potential 41-42 crores. JTHJ &#8211; 24-25 crores, SOS = 15-16 crores<br \/>\nThursday &#8211; Sunday &#8211; JTHJ 12+10+12+15 = 50 crores. SOS = 8+7+9+12 = 36 crores.<br \/>\nOpening 6 -days: JTHJ = 88-90 crores, SOS = 60-62 crores.<br \/>\n<strong>Opening week: JTHJ = 115-120 crores, SOS = 78-80 crores<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2nd week: JTHJ = 28-30 crores, SOS = 20 crores<br \/>\n<strong>Lifetime: JTHJ = 150-160 crores, SOS = 105-108 crores<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now, if one movie has very bad WOM, it will have a huge impact as the audience has another option available.<br \/>\nIf JTHJ is bad and SOS is good, lifetime: JTHJ = 115 crores, SOS = 120 cores<br \/>\nif JTJH is good and SOS is bad, JTHJ = 175 crores+, SOS = 80 crores.<\/p>\n<p>For JTHJ to cross 175+, it will need excellent WOM.
