#AskIndicine at 3PM
Post your questions in the comments section below. 10 questions will be answered 3PM (Indian Standard Time) onwards.
Q. How has Tamasha performed in overseas markets?
A. Tamasha has done well in the overseas markets. The two-day business, including paid previews, is around Rs 14-15 crore (without including Saturday collections from North America). Weekend business should cross the $4 million mark. Ranbir and Deepika have a fairly good following overseas and Imtiaz Ali films also get a good opening outside India.
Q. Rate the ‘Bajirao Mastani’ Theatrical trailer, with negatives and positives – Raghav
A. 9 on 10. Fantastic trailer. Positives would be the massive scale, grandeur, war scenes, performances from the lead cast, promises to be a visual treat on the big screen. Negatives, trailer should have been shorter and VFX wasn’t upto the mark in a few scenes.
Q. You had written in your Tamasha Box office article that Ranbir and his fans would be hoping Sanjay Dutt biopic goes on the floor soon. Do you think the film can open well enough to sustain in longer run (assuming the trailer of the film is impressive) because this is neither a sequel to a super-hit film (like Lage Raho Munna Bhai) nor does it have a superstar backing (like Aamir in 3 Idiots and PK) – Gaurav
A. Rajkumar Hirani is a superstar director. His value to a film is probably as much or more than a big star, because not only will his films get a good initial at the box office, but also sustain well enough to do well in the long run – assuming that he continues to be in the same form as his last 4 films. He has already promised that ‘Sanjay Dutt biopic’ would be the most entertaining film of his career and irrespective of the star cast, it would be the most awaited film of the year that it releases in. The only non-superstar and non-franchise film that he directed was ‘Munnabhai M.B.B.S’ and that was his debut film. In short, even if Hirani happens to cast a debutant actor, his film should still easily manage a 15-20 crore opening.

Should we Go for an actor or a director to watch a Film?
p.s I feel it is the Director what makes a film work…
A Film like 3 idiots directed by Rohit shetty with Aamir Khan will not be as good as that of Rajukumar…

Plz post answer sir
Will the recent intolerance controversy of SRK can affect Dilwale at the box office.
As some people are very much upset by him and they show it on social media?
Is it a worry time for SRK??
@indicine why you say varun will attract youth for dilwale is srk not able to atttact youth?if srk is brand why her movie needs other reason to attract audience like srk-kajol pair,directed by rohit shetty etc.is srk name is not enough to attract crowd.
What Is the overseas, domestic all version and Worldwide collection of PRDP ?
will 400cr club will be opned in 2016…whats ur opinion..
How will you rate or compare salmans popularity with that of amitjis or rajesh khannas in their golden run??
@Indicine
What impact do you think the Intolerance statements by SRK and Aamir will have on the box-office of Dilwale. After Aamir’s statement I read some whatsapp messages of people boycotting Srk’s and Aamir’s films.
Dangal is still 1 year to go but with less than 1 month left for Dilwale, how big can the impact be?
@indicine
Your top 5 fav. films of this year?
I am a die hard fan of SRK… I always wanted the best release specifically for the Christmas Time for SRK to beat PK … everything was going on right track until Bajirao has come on the way… its pathetic … really painful…
Anyway, can you please tell me your idea of opening & lifetime of DILWALE & is there any chance to beat PK … ??? (most of your estimation does work effectively)
see the double stand of Boxofficeindia.com. They stopped updation of PRDP b.o collection..their last update was monday. Total till monday 177cr. producer figure till monday 197cr. see the difference 20cr …. After one or two weeks BOI will publish PRDP’s final figure..they will show 200 life time….Why they can’t publish PRDP’s daily figure???
After sultan salman khan upcoming movie!
@gaurav Ranbir is a superstar. If ranbir is not considered one then akki ajay are also not superstar

Will Star wars Effect Dilwale and BM?
As of now BM trailer looks more impressive than dilwale? What do you think might it possible for BM to take better start than dilwale..??
Canl Raees and Fan teaser be attached with Dilwale prints?
rajkumar hirani a non franchise movie with non establiahed starcast or rohit shetty non franchise movie with not so popular star. which movie will take bigger opening??
indicine when someone in previous q&n asked u content of raees seems good u told who knows …now u r saying rajkumar hirani will surely give nice script….don.t show ur biased nature …u r also not posting my many comment…..
@3:50PM: Raees is being directed by Rahul Dholakia who doesn’t have a box office hit to his credit. Yes, he won a National Award, but directing a commercial film that appeals to a large section of the audience is a different game altogether. Rajkumar Hirani has delivered the highest grosser of all time twice, and he came close with Lage Raho Munnabhai too. Absolutely no comparison between Dholakia and Hirani.
If Hate Story 3 becomes a success then do you think big stars will want to feature in part 4 or 5 cashing in on the brand…? Im thinking maybe part 4 can feature a love triangle featuring a power couple like Queen n Gauri Khan about an indecent proposal/ proposition from a sleazy film tycoon played by Karan Johar- plot line similar to that of part 3..!
@Anand-Original
The occupancy of PRDP was lower than HNY because of large number of screen count.You can any credible source for confirmation.The occupancy of PRDP was less than ETT ,CE,HNY and D3.
Will FAN’S or RAEES TEASER BE ATTCHED WITH DILWALE’S PRINTS?
