Tamasha has collected Rs 38.23 crore in its first weekend at the box office, making it the 8th highest opening weekend of 2015, ahead of ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’ and behind ‘Gabbar Is Back’.

Q. Which movie has higher buzz after the trailer and song launch – Bajirao Mastani or Dilwale? – Bhupendra...

Tamasha has shown excellent growth in business on its second day at the box office, as the collections are likely to be...

Tamasha is Ranbir Kapoor’s 3rd highest opener to date. But the collections of the film is way below the highs that he achieved with films like ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ and to certain extent even ‘Besharam’ (holiday release). The opening of ‘Tamasha’ is comparable to his last film with Imtiaz Ali, ‘Rockstar’. However, it has been 4 years since that film released and what was considered to be excellent back then, is below par now.

The phase between the 2012 film ‘Cocktail’ and 2015’s ‘Piku’ has been the best phase of Deepika Padukone’s career. Almost all her films, with the only exception being ‘Finding Fanny’, have not only recovered their investment, but gone on to be huge grossers at the box office.

The makers of Bajirao Mastani and Dilwale are going all out to market their films. The PR machinery is in overdrive mode, especially the PR team of Bajirao Mastani, who are more active than ever! The aim is to outdo the other, to give their own film the edge and convince the audience that it’s their film that deserves to be watched first on 18th December.

Box office comparison between Salman Khan’s Kick and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo is interesting for several reasons: Both films had two holidays in their respective first weeks. Kick benefitted from a holiday on its 5th day, but released during the Pre-Eid period. PRDP, on the other hand, released on the big Diwali holiday. Kick marked the directorial debut of Sajid Nadiadwala and PRDP marked the comeback of Sooraj Barjatya, who previously directed Salman in all-time grossers like Maine Pyaar Kiya and Hum Aapke Hain Kaun. Their combination is so big that a ‘blockbuster’ like ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ pales in comparison to their first two films. The genre advantage was huge for ‘KICK’, because the film was more youth and multiplex friendly. Also, it released after ‘Jai Ho’, which was rejected by the audience after its first weekend. However, PRDP released on more screens, tickets were priced higher and it released after an universally appreciated film like ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’. The word of mouth for both films is mixed. The first week collections of both films are the same, PRDP collected Rs 1.24 crore more than Kick. The big difference is likely to come after Week 1 as Kick held on strongly and went on to collect Rs 51.01 crore in Week 2. Also, vote for the film you liked more! Check out the detailed box office comparison between Kick and PRDP below.

Salman Khan’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has collected Rs 172.82 crore in its first extended week at the box office...

‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ has beaten ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’ in just 7 days to become the 2nd highest grosser of 2015. The film is behind ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ which is likely to remain the highest grosser of the year. With PRDP set to cross the 200 crore mark, the collections of his two films will be more than Rs 525 crore. The worldwide gross of his two films is likely to touch the Rs 1000 crore mark!

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has recorded the 4th highest First Week collections of all time, beating films like Happy New...

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has collected Rs 165.45 crore in its first week at the box office, a figure that is higher than Salman Khan’s KICK, but lower than Bajrangi Bhaijaan which released earlier this year. The Hindi collections of PRDP is higher than the first week collections of Happy New Year which collected Rs 157.57 crore – including collections from all versions (Hindi, Telugu, Tamil) – which released during the same weekend last year.

Like we mentioned in our box office report last evening, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo was steady on its 6th day at the box office. The film has added Rs 12 crore on Tuesday. The total collections in India now stands at Rs 155.43 crore. The first week business will be around the 165-166 crore mark and the 8-day business is likely to be in the 175 crore range.

The first teaser trailer of a film releasing in 2016 is out and it’s also time for us to make our first prediction for the new year. The 2 minute long trailer is outstanding; high on production values, realistic performances, excellent background score and when a man waves the Indian flag on top of the Queen Alia International Airport, it also evokes a sense of patriotism. The teaser itself makes you want to watch the film, first day first show.

This is a comparison between two Salman Khan films, both released in 2015. One went on to be the biggest grosser of...

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has collected Rs 143.39 crore in 5 days at the box office and the film is set to cross the 150 crore mark today (Tuesday). Circuits that have been performing well over the weekend and on Monday, have held on strongly today.

Salman Khan’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has crashed at the box office on Monday, registering drops in the range of 25-75% across various centres on its first weekday. The first Monday business is likely to be in the 12 crore range, which was expected after the film dropped on Sunday. Mass centres are holding up well, but the big problem has come at metro cities in India. Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata and other major cities like Pune, Gurgaon have registered big drops on Monday. Mangalore has come down by 85-90% from Thursday.
