FAN Official Box Office Collection Report for Day 1

FAN has collected Rs 19.2 crore on its opening day at the box office, which matches our ‘early estimate‘ of Rs 19 crore. The film has performed well at multiplexes in cities, but the collections at smaller centres was below-the-mark on Friday.

FAN Box Office Prediction

It’s FAN Day Tomorrow and the release of a Shah Rukh Khan film is always a big event for fans across the world. The industry, his fans, well-wishers and even those who love to see him fail – are all keen to see and know how his films perform at the box office. For an actor who has achieved so much in the industry, his stardom is put to test each time he makes an outing. FAN will be no different. The success of the film will be important for SRK, because his standing in the industry has taken a dip in the last few years.

FAN Advance Booking Report

FAN releases in theatres tomorrow and this film is probably the biggest test of Shah Rukh Khan’s ability to bring audience to theatres on Day 1. His last few films have either featured a top heroine, a strong supporting cast, universally appealing genre, huge in-your-face marketing campaigns and popular music. FAN has none of that. Absolutely none.

The Jungle Book set to impact Shah Rukh Khan’s FAN

The Jungle Book is on a phenomenal run at the India box office, as the trend during the weekdays is beyond fantastic. The film is carrying better word-of-mouth than all other films released in 2016. In fact, the Hollywood film is performing well at smaller centres too, where even the biggest Hindi success of the year – Airlift – did not perform very well.

Ki and Ka 2nd Weekend Box Office Collections

Ki and Ka has sustained reasonably well in its second weekend at the box office, but the film was affected by ‘The Jungle Book’ wave at multiplexes across the country. The film has collected Rs 8.24 crore in its second weekend, showing decent growth both on Saturday and Sunday. The 10-day total now stands at Rs 46 crore. The ‘role reversal’ film will cross the 50 crore mark by the end of the second week and will finish with lifetime business of around 53-55 crore.

Opening Response to Upcoming films in 2016

This page has been created to discuss the answers to question posted in the AskIndicine Live QnA Q. Most popular song of 2016? Kamran Ahmed A. It has to be Kar Gayi Chull from Kapoor & Sons. It has topped every chart – including iTunes, Radio Mirchi, Ormax (just to name a few) and continues to dominate. It also helped Kapoor & Sons to post a bigger total on Day 1. Q. How are Sultan and Shivaay shaping up? Also, has the post production of Dangal started? And when can we expect the theatrical trailer of Mohenja Daro? A. Early reports for Sultan are positive. Teaser will be out in 4 days from now, reports for which are incredible. Not much is known about Shivaay, except for the fact that the film is being made on a massive scale and the visuals are going to be incredible. The only question mark is over Ajay Devgn as director, he wasn’t very impressive in his first film ‘U Me Aur Hum’. Yes, the post-production work on Dangal has already begun, most of the shoot is complete. The trailer of Mohenjo Daro doesn’t have a date, it’s expected to release in June. Q. Is Shah Rukh Khan doing Imtiaz Ali’s next? – Shaker A. Yes, the film is confirmed. Q. Can you list down the films that have the potential to take a Good, Excellent, Bumper or Record Breaking opening for this year? A.

Has Raees vs Sultan clash been averted?

This page has been created to discuss the answers to question posted in the AskIndicine Live QnA Q. Have heard rumours about Raees vs Sultan not happening and it is Raees that is moving ahead. Any truth in that? – ANK A. Although an official announcement is yet to be made, it’s more or less certain now that Raees will be moving to a different date. Reliable sources have now confirmed that Sultan will get a solo release.

The Jungle Book India Box Office Collections

Only two films this year have opened to ‘excellent’ occupancy in the morning and both are Hollywood films – ‘Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice’ and ‘The Jungle Book’. The morning show occupancy of ‘The Jungle Book’ was higher than the biggest Hindi release so far this year – ‘Airlift’ – which also goes to show that Hollywood films have already started challenging the biggest of Hindi releases at multiplexes in cities.

Ki and Ka Day 8 (2nd Friday) Box Office Collections

Ki and Ka was steady on the lower side on Day 8 at the box office. Because it was holiday in parts of the country, the film was expected to hold at higher levels on its 2nd Friday, but business was affected because of the release of ‘The Jungle Book’.

Ki and Ka records 3rd highest first week of 2016, all eyes on FAN

R. Balki’s Ki and Ka has recorded the 3rd highest first week collections of 2016 – behind Airlift and Kapoor & Sons, and ahead of films like Neerja, Ghayal Once Again and Wazir. Airlift remains the only film that has crossed the 50 crore mark in its first week. All eyes are now on Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming release FAN. It remains to be seen if the Maneesh Sharma directed film can surpass the first week total of Airlift and possibly even do 100 crore plus in its first week.

Ki and Ka First Week Box Office Collections

Ki and Ka has done well in its first week at the box office. The film starring Arjun Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead, did well in its first weekend and remained steady during the weekdays. It has also recorded the 3rd highest first week collections in 2016, behind films like Airlift and Kapoor and Sons.

Great Grand Masti release date announced

Great Grand Masti, which was recently passed with 22 cuts, finally has a release date. The third film in Indra Kumar’s popular sex comedy series will release in theatres on July 22 2016. First announced for theatrical release in March this year, Great Grand Masti was indefinitely postponed after the CBFC took objection to a few scenes in the film.

Ki and Ka First Weekend Box Office Collections

Ki and Ka has collected Rs 9.52 crore on its 3rd day at the box office, to take its first weekend total to Rs 25.23 crore net. The trend should have been better, but the film was also affected by the World T20 final on Sunday night.

Arjun Kapoor: Highest Opening Day Collections

Ki and Ka has become the highest non-holiday opener for Arjun Kapoor, as the film has collected more than his previous best ‘Tevar’. The advantage of a holiday release is around 35% as compared to a non-holiday release. So if we balance out the factors and negate the holiday advantage, Gunday would have opened to around 10.5 crore on a non-holiday Friday and 2 States would have collected somewhere around 8 crore.
