In the last few days, every second comment on our website is about Ek Tha Tiger crossing the magical 200 crore figure of 3 Idiots. While Salman fans are confident of the film joining the 200 crore club, his critics are quick to point out that Bodyguard crashed after the initial extended weekend. The neutrals believe, Ek Tha Tiger is not the most deserving film to go past an ‘all-time classic’.
Our take – box-office records are meant to be broken and 3 Idiots has held on strongly (and deservingly) to the top-spot for three years now.
As things stand today, with higher ticket prices and many more screens (almost double), Ek Tha Tiger has had a huge head-start.
So far in 10 days, the Salman Khan film has 147.6 crores in the bank. At the same stage, 3 Idiots did 90.5 crore nett.
The difference could well be the second weekend, when 3 Idiots went from strength to strength. If ETT picks up over the coming weekend, it’s very likely to cross the 202 crore mark and even surpass that by a decent margin. If it crashes, then it’s likely to shut-shop with 180-185 crore nett.
Below is a day-wise comparison between 3 Idiots and Ek Tha Tiger (will be updated everyday)
__________________________________
UPDATE: Ek Tha Tiger had a very good 2nd weekend of around 21 crores. The second Sunday business was more than double of it’s second Friday.
After 13 days, the difference between 3 Idiots (130.5 cr) and Ek Tha Tiger (178.17 cr) is still huge. It should add another 7-8 crores by Thursday, after which, the release of Joker will have a significant impact on ETT.
__________________________________
UPDATE (1st Sep): Ek Tha Tiger has dropped this week with the release of Joker. But the fact that Joker has already been rejected, gives ETT a good chance to put up better numbers on Saturday (today) and Sunday, as it should be the first choice this week too.
The film stills needs about 13.5 crores to cross 200 crores and about 15.5 to beat 3 Idiots. Difficult!

alex n emperor wl get some share of ett datz y they r so interested in boxoffice collection.. listen ett wont cross 3i.. n one more thing aamir is always in front of salman because he deserves dat.
Common bhai…u can break 3 idiots record nd build a new record on bollywood who nevr break evr…..go go go tiger…
@indicine why you are not updating second weekend collections…
In buzrugon ke liye mat lado..
Emraan hashmi bollywood ka future hai.
Love u emmi.
@hritck u r saying dat 3i budget is 35cr nd ett is around 75cr, I ll tell u 1 thing ,In 35cr thr is no amair khan fees bcz now a days he is taking %’s frm d producers wich they earned frm film and In 75cr’s thr is SALMAN BHAI fees is also included. Have u underst Hritck.
It should not cross the mark becouse 3 idiot was ultimate movie and ETT is just a very good movie.
Difference between Aamir & Salman. When Aamir started 100 crore & 200 crore clubs, with Ghajini & 3 Idiots Salman started all time disaster club with films such as Main Aur Mrs.Khanna & Yuvraaj
it is false figure of ek tha tiger the correct figure us updated boxofficeindia.com..ek tha tiger first week that is 9 days is 143.12cr not in 158 core many site display false figure it is like pubilicicity stunt.2end weekend is 19.48cr second week prediction is 30 crore so total is 173cr in 16 days .joker coming next week son 3rd week low lifetime expected in 180-185cr.it cannot break 3 idiots.i think dhoom 3 or raj kumar hirani next movie peekay could be break 3 idiots record.best script in 2012 is peekay.
You cannot diclair a good script without watching a movie only bacause of director or actor.For example flop movie like yuvraj was directed by subhash ghai.
After the Magnificent performance in
the first week, and the collections of
second weekend the trade has
started calling the film an All Time
Blockbuster.
Well, there is no reason why Ek Tha
Tiger shouldn’t be called an ATBB. It
has put and unprecedented 143
crores in the first week. It Broke All
Opening and Weekday Records.
Ek Tha Tiger is Going to be the first
ever film to cross the 100 crores
distributor share mark. This is a
fantastic thing, and Ek Tha Tiger has
brought in very huge profits for Yash
Raj Films.
Ek Tha Tiger’s is Salman Khan’s 5th
(solo) All Time Blockbuster after
Maine Pyaar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hain
Kaun, Dabangg and Bodyguard.
omg…choo chweet couple…i jsut watched a video on youtube..sorry i cant send dlink…just type on youtube “katrina seen taking rest on salman’s shoulder” if u like dis couple joust watch it…watch it if u r a true fan…u wl luv it….

salman has more no. of top grossing movies of d year and all time blockbuster than srk…during 90’s salman has more hits tha. srk…srk also has given flops like..maaya memsaab,ram jane ,guddu,badshah,paheli,ashoka,chamatkar,oh darling ye hai india,1 2 ka 4,…salman has launched many stars like sanjay leela bhansali..himesh reshammiya..sajid-wajid..sonakshi…bhagyashree…katrina…salman has helped many ators during their financial problem..ex. govinda..he has helped sushmita..n diya mirza when their relatives were ill..he wl always be auper hero…if srk dies in any movie ppl wl luv it..but if salman as it happnd in tere naam..fans wont lyk it..his fans always want to see him happy…
ye lamhe judai k is also flop by srk…so haters dont start counting d flops …evrybdy has given flops…but salman has given more only after 2000…but he has given hits also during that period
no one came to play as a guest actor in k2h2..but salman came n did a marvellous job….we luvd him…
Tha total profite gvn by SALMAN KHAN to yash chopra by Only ONE FILM ETT =The sum of SRK’S all films under Ysh raj banner. True na friends, its
SALMANIA YAAAAR.
“he doesn’t hv attitude….he is the attitude…nw he has bcum d biggest brand ” ….said by d biggies of b-town
salman is d versatile actor…we hv seen him in manyavatar…all we kno abt romantic prem…he has done many superhit romantic movies..comedy…family movies..drama…action…n hw cn we 4get hs ikka seth dialogue…his serious acting in veergati..tere naam…garv n many more…he has worked for free in phir milenge..sawan..just 4 friendship…though his marigold wasflop…but he is s only bollywood actor to work in a hollywood film…
he refused from giving smmoch in marigold….respect sir…u wl always b a hero in real life…n favrt of kids..u deserve dis position…ur name only matters…dis is a great thing
i hv never seen any touchy bolly video song like…sau dard from jaaneman……sb viwers ko rula diya h….
why all people are appreciating salman khan and as far as ETT it is the biggest slop of the indian history it has no story also lack of mature acting and dialog s and for salman he is hust like a robot how people appreciating his work dam here………………
3 idiots is all time best movie
sharukh khan is no 1 hero
amir is no 2
ranbir kapoor is no 3
imran hashmi is no 4
akshay is no 5
and salman is no 10 now adays
CONGRATS TO SALMAN FANS FOR BLOCBUSTER :)
I hope this movie can get into 200 cr club :)
@xerox r u head of actin school? Srk is same typin of actin in every…in action films is performin lik romantic scences…srk dont evn deserve to compare legend lik aamir….u can srk wid mallika sherwat….akki is more versatile thn dumb srk…..
