  • Great job indicine you guys rock. All the other movies you listed them according to their month but the 175 crore potential movie clashing with Robot 2 you listed it specially last , no one can skip that glance.
    Ajay vs Rajni sir finished.

  • Romance Take:
    Raees- not full fleged commercial film srk negetive role attracts masses but female adience who watched srk films multiple time skip it. 180-205cr
    Kaabil- Same revenge odd drama by hritik plus no big heroien with sanjay gupta direction. 50-80cr
    Bahubali2- 1st part did unexpected business bulid huge expectation which can be the negetive point of the film. 150-175cr
    Tubelight- Kabir khan undoubtly 2nd best after hirani, since 2010 all eid release blockbuster history also repeat 2017. 305-325cr
    Robot 2- scifi film not have market in domestic cercit even krish3 did 175cr. 130-150cr
    Golmal 4- Adience lost interest in Rohit shetty like sajid khan comedy films aren’t working now even housefull3 underperformed. 90-110cr
    The Ring- if Srk can enter 300cr club its the perfect film, if it attract pan indian adience like RNBDJ then the ring will be the srk 1st n Anushka 3rd 300cr film. 300-350cr
    Tiger Zindia nehi- 300cr isn’t joke Tiger sequel isn’t big like Dhoom/krish or even Don/Dabangg, katrina biggest negetive for the film. 150-180cr
    Padmavati- a batsman can hit back 2 back 6 sixes once not everytime, BM is just miracle plus repetately ranveer deepika irritate. 50-65cr

  • Happy to see Ajay starrer sending Rajni Sir movie to Joker land. Made my day indicine.
    Guys am not going to be around but best wishes to every every. Those who could not digest my comments only one word..Fact!! Bye guys till we come across soon. Keep the flow going @Indicine you guys rock!!

  • Dont know what is going on Srk and Hrithik’s mind??? It looks like they are digging their own graves. Just heard that Kaabil trailer will release with Shivaay and ADHM. That means Hrithik is in no mood of shifting from Republic day. Srk is taking continuously taking wrong decisions in terms of release dates. First he released Dilwale on 18th Dec instead of 25th Dec facing a direct clash, then he shifted Raees from Eid and instead of releasing it on Bakrid he is releasing it on Republic day facing another c

  • @Tiger The Real Kings Baal : You moron. Raees will be another 80 crore club movie like Dear Dadaji and Pankha
    #True Salman Fans

  • Now compare acting
    He has a best success graph as an actor compare to any actor and everyone admits that from srk to sallu and your kalua also admits the same
    akki entered as non actor but now he is king verstality…

    so lets compare genre wise
    action
    akki is known as king of action
    akk is biggest in action than kalua ….
    Romace
    akki is bigger than kalua in romance
    Drama
    akki is equal to kalua in drama
    serious/ intense
    akki is better than kalua in serious roles and in intense kalua has a little edge over akki ..
    comedy
    akki known as king of comedy he is 100 times better than kalua ….
    thriller
    akki is better than kalua in thrillers
    now he is king of thrillers …

    Now you all haters and kalua fan says he became actor after 2000 but
    But he gets best actor nomination for ye dillagi …
    he showed his acting abilites in serious / intense role in 1999 in films like sangharsh , jaanwar ,angaaray
    He showed his comic talent in 90s in films like Suhag and Mr and mrs khiladi….
    critics admit that Mr and Mrs khiladi is a better and entertaing film than than Deewana mastana released in same year both directed by david and akki acted better than govinda and anil kapoor. DM collected more than Mr An Mrs khiladi becoz of akki bad phase ……….
    now compare looks

    akki is 2000 times better than kalua…..
    ..and now kalua using Lord shiva to get hit

  • All akki fans don’t watch Shivaay film , these sadakchap devgan fan so much blabbering on akki sir . Ajay is most arrogant actor & back stabber actor ever produced in Bollywood he didn’t even respect Yashji .
    @ sandas d don’t jump like monkey I have seen ur real face today .

  • 29 September seems to be a great vacancy for a film like ‘The Ring’. One national holiday along with a couple of dusshera holidays.

    Toilet-Ek Prem Katha might be releasing on May 1.

  • My Top Ten Films for 2017

    4- Golmaal 4 – 180Crs+
    5- Padmavati – 180Crs+

  • For those who are saying Salman and Aamir are playing safe games,

    In festive seasons and other holiday periods, most of the people are free and willing to spend. Therefore, the BO of Hindi films can perform to its maximum potentials.
    For that reason, during those periods, the distributors and the exhibitors want those stars that can bring maximum footfalls to theatres and and moolahs at the BO.
    For a film released in any of these periods, it has to earn at least Super Hit verdict to justify its festive or holiday release. Else, that is a sheer waste of opportunities.

    With due respect to all actorsi, many of them haven’t really justified the those periods or lived up to the expectations with his films when they got opportunitied. They have rather wasted them most of the time.

    To be fair and square, as of today, only Aamir Khan and Salman Khan and to an extent Hrithik & Ajay can exploit the festive periods to their maximum potentials and hence they deserve those periods. Even Shah Rukh Khan has, one of the most successful superstars, managed to take full advantage of them only twice in the long long years: with OSO in 2008 and CE in 2013. So others can stop talking about festive periods.

  • I seriously believe that bolloywood should stop this. Have you ever seen a hollywood biggie ever betting on fabourable release date for performance of a film? Let go hollywood even r south indian film industry dosent do that.Many biggies like 24 iru murugan jantha garage etc have released on normal weekdays and done great.
    Bollywood is going this shitty way just because of greedy producers.They want to earn huge money and they don’t give a damn about giving value to us audience.
    How often do u see a producer whos last film made huge try something big and totally different the next time?
    None
    It’s high time these producers realise this.
    I’m not against any actor here I respect them all just try to understand my point.
    We as an audience should get value for our money. These producers are misusing our love for the Superstars.

  • 2017 will be very exciting my top 10 are
    -tubelight
    -crack
    -golmaal 4
    -jolly llb 2
    -kaabil
    -raees
    -baahubali 2
    -robot 2
    -half girlfriend
    -tiger zinda hai

  • @Sani D
    Thank God u yourself showed what is the aukaat of your Ajay devgan…!!!
    Yes golmaal series belongs to tushar kapoor because he has overshadowed
    that tiny star in each and every golmaal movie…!!!
    And yes tushar kapoor>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ajay devgan
    Finally someone from your fan base accepted this..!!

  • Akshay Kumar doesn’t need prove anyone who is he and what he is capable of ….!!!
    Some morons here compare his last decade edx release (that too most of them were clash except TMK)
    with their star solo edx releases of this decade …. bwaaah
    He hasn’t had a edx release in this decade
    OUATIMD was one but we all knew what type of dirty games were played at that time and how badly the movie was affected….!!!
    Even after getting postponed to i-day it merely got 1300 screens (all thanks to utv)
    But still opened thunderously
    12cr on 1300 screens
    It would have been a record breaking opener if it was solo eid release …!!!
    Even @indicine knows this but nahi nicha Jo dikhana hota hai Akshay Kumar ko by using OUATIMD name ….!!!

  • @anand the original
    I know u are taking a indirect dig at Akki
    So I request u compare all the movies released on festivals from 2005-2010 ….!!!
    As @indicine says first day and first weekend defines stardom so why not have a comparison between festival releases of that time…????

  • And as a fan I say this Akshay sir won’t be having any festival release in near future
    (Maybe Except 2.0)
    Because the kind of films he is doing lately

  • @Sani D
    Rajnikant is baap of all Bollywood actors
    He is the biggest of all and I accept this…!!!
    But but but …!!!
    His movies doesn’t even gets initial here in North and other core Hindi belts so it’s an Akshay Kumar starrer here more than a rajnikant film …!!!
    And btw I shouldn’t be explaining you all this because u have answer in your comment itself
    “Robot 2.0” ( movie title for Bollywood audiences)
    And the movie is bilingual not an dubbed one…!!!
    The only thing which rajnikant sir can sell here in Hindi markets is only his jokes …!!!
    No offense to thala and his fans but that’s the truth..!!!
    We won’t credit AK for the opening in South but saying 2.0 will run on rajni sir name even in Hindi belts is the foolish thing to say the least …!!!

  • @Rakesh Chavan, dont watch shivaay. We dont care if some flop actors like emraan hadhmee, tushar kapoor, chankey pandey, bobby deol, abhishek bachchan, joker kumar’s fans dont watch superstar ajay devgn’s movie. Becuase it is bound to be blockbuster even if you koyla flopshay kumar fans dont watch it. Just get lost moronic scoundrel.

  • @rakesh chavan there is nothing like ‘ajay fans’ you can say this ajay fan, only 1 or 2 guy are there who cmnts for ajay from several id’s. He is a too low Star fan to even argue with .
    Just Trying hard 2 make ajay look bigger to argue with Akshay fans. LOL

  • As a hrithik fan I believe kaabil should be postponed to 29th of sept so that it get a huge benefit of dussera and gandhi jayanti

  • @saluman khan King Khan

    Thanks for using Megastar Sharukh Khan synonym KING KHAN in your id.
    Because King Khan name only belongs to Shahrukh Khan.

    And Raees will be a big blockbuster than TZH and PRDP despite a clash with Kabil and small holiday release as compare to EDX.
