Dhoom is inarguably the biggest franchise in the industry, so the very fact that a film like Bajrangi Bhaijaan has beaten Dhoom 3 on 4 of its first day 6 days at the box office, is a huge achievement.
Due to lack of holidays, surpassing Bollywood’s highest grosser of all time might prove to be a difficult task for the Salman Khan starrer, but the Kabir Khan film has every chance of beating Aamir Khan’s Dhoom 3 to become the 2nd highest grossing film of all time.
Also, the word-of-mouth of Bajrangi Bhaijaan is far more positive as compared to Dhoom 3, which should result in better trends in the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately, the difference again could be one extra holiday (New Year) and open week, which could make this a tough contest between two hugely popular films.

thank god indicine haven’t compare the collection with HNY or CE ., otherwise our srk fan would have been crying now
This comparison making lot of sense as both are trending similiar way n trade buzz say that Bajrangi will compete to break Dhoom3……!!….
look… slight diffrence in collection really dnt mattr…
BB is a classic just like 3idiots …
salman dnt care abt money thts why is is donating it alott.
we jst wnt sakman to keep entrtainig us wth his unique dance … mannarism… walking style… persona.. n invisible power to attract people… or getting tht likability…
right from maine pyar kiya…to bajrangi bhaaijan…
BB chances of crossing D3 are only 40 percent
BB will be 300 grosser in India as far as nett collections are concerned….promise
Pk first week collection was 182.89 crore.To break the record of pk Bajrangi bhaijaan needs to collect 13 cr on thursday.While as dhoom 3 hindi version has collected 180 crore total india collections 188.99 crore.So Bajrangi bhaijaan needs 20 cr to broke dhoom 3 first week collection.Bajrangi bhaijaan is also a blockbuster.He gives first 5 back to back blockbuster.And now kick is blockbuster Bajrangi bhaijaan is blockbuster.His upcoming movies are Prem Ratan Dhan Payo and Sultan.Can salman khan repeats history again.But with sultan clash with raees.so, Sultan is very tough to became a blockbuster.Shahrukh khan last blockbuster was chennai express.Happy new year was super hit.Shahrukh khan has given 3 back to back blockbuster Chak De! India, Om Shanti Om and Rab ne bana di jodi.Shahrukh khan Dilwale clash with bajirao mastani So it is tough to became a blockbuster.But it is Rohit shetty movie I think it will crush bajirao mastani.Rohit shetty’s movies was always entertaining last time Chennai express.If Dilwale songs is good and trailer is good.Stars like Shahrukh khan, Kajol,Varun dhawan while as bajirao mastani have one star Ranveer singh.So bajirao mastani will be crushed.Hope salman khan Bajrangi bhaijaan breaks the record of pk.
Anyone want to bet. BB will not cross 300 crore and dhoom 3 according to producer figures as well as trade figures
SRY…
DHOOM IS NT BIGGEST BRAND ..
BIGGEST BRAND IS SALMAN KHAN..ONLY..
alot of salman fans watch film in single screen in 60rs or 80rs…
while multiplex tickets r 300-350
this makes huge diffrence…otherwise no 1 is evn close to salman khan…
Why Salman fans abusing BOI bcoz BOI declared SRK biggest Star of All time.
if BB collections r hurting srk fan girls so muchhh…..
just imagin …. wat will happen wen
BB-290CR
PRDP-50 cr opening n 245cr lifetime
DILWALE struggle to reach 150 cr
lifetime..
N baajirao -110 cr ..
jst look at the future…its TOO MUCH FUN….
it will surely beat dhoom3 and will cross 300cr.WoW
post some drishyam articles.its buzz is too low
@ indicine- either remove tamil telugu version collections of dhoom 3 or add maine pyar kiya salman starrer’s regional collections in its total.
Easily Beats DHOOM:3 Lifetime Collection
PK Is Looking Lil Difficult Bcoz Expect Sunday BB Don’t Have Any Occasional Holiday & Ajay’s DRISHYAM Is Going To Release On 31st July…Where PK Has Xmas N New Year Day + No Strong Compentraders…
My Prediction
BB :- 300-320 Cr Domestic (20-25cr Short)
200-220 Cr Overseas
550Cr Worldwide
But…Expectations Are High
So close but never mind. Another 100cr over next two weeks is still on for BB to surpass D3 lifetime n go into the 300cr club
It wont cross 250cr
Beat eaisly dhoom 3..!!
@indicine 188cr is include tamil and telugu versions also …. the hindi collection is 179cr
Aamir khan is the best.. Aamir fans love bhaijaan.. After bb top 3 domestic, overseas, worldwide all belong to Aamir sir And Salman bhai.. Salmir rules Bollywood. Srk rules only maratha mandir..
it will below dhoom 3
BB compared only with Dhoom 3 and PK.
Srk is out of competition, its
Salman vs Aamir vs Hrithik
for top 3 megastars.
Akshay and Srk are competing for 4th and 5th position.
@indicine Do you feel PKs second weekend n second week records are now safe hence its a two horse race between D3 and BB for the second spot of second Highest Grosser of all time…?
I don’t think there has to be any more talk on Salman’s star power.
He is the PHENOMENON of Bollywood.
Even with Drishyam releasing I feel masses would still watch BB in week 3.
Second week revised to 80cr
Third week 40cr
Cmon BB
Dhoom 3 is Aamir Khan’s one of the worst movies but it is still 1000 times better than Salman Khan’s crap movie Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
bewkuf janta kabhi Muslim aur kabhi Hindu ke naam par shahid ho rahi hai aur yeh Khan maze le rahe hain
Salman’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan did what Srk never did in his career even with the help of multistarrers and Rohit Shetty:-
Cross 8.1 million dollars in first weekend overseas
Now Salman has beaten Srk’s whole career in overseas.
Now Top superstars in overseas:
1.Aamir
2.Salman
3.Hrithik/Srk
its very hard slap on srk’s fan who said that bb is comparing with kick his own movie and srk’s movie compares with biggest grossers on opening day but here is a different scenario. where are srk’s craps here are only aamir highest grossers
Bajrangi bhaijan lifetime will around dhoom3 means 280cr-285cr
But I wish bb cross magical mark 300cr
Except for day 13 all other days from now on BB wld earn more!!
ripped record of hny just in a single week worldwide
