Shah Rukh Khan’s FAN is one of the biggest non-festive releases of the year and expectations from the film are high, more so after a trailer that received a good response from majority of the audience.
The film releases in theatres on April 15 and all eyes will be on the opening day collections of the film. If FAN scores on Day 1, more big films could target smaller (or normal) weekends to release their films, as major holiday weekends are getting more crowded with each passing day.
The first target for FAN would be to surpass the opening day business of 2013 film ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ which collected Rs 19.46 crore on a non-holiday (and non-festive) Friday.
No film that has released on a working day without the advantage of a festive weekend (i.e Eid, Dilwali, Christmas) has collected more than Rs 20 crore. Will FAN be the first film to do so?

@indicine-highly disagree. according to me kick was pure non holiday non festive release with additional burden of ramzan and collected 26 cr+
Fan will do 120/130 cr max non festive
with only two open weeks
Well of course,there are chances,u never know..If the world of mouth is very strong and it clicks with huge section of audience then it can even beat chennai express..of course a figure as high as 300 crore or crossing films like dhoom 3,PK is looking impossible so the best case scenario should be anything around or better than chennai express lifetime figure. As far as opening is concerned,it should cross The opening day figure of Jeh jawaani hai deewani if it releases on more than 3500 screens or so.
FAN Easily cross 25 crs on opening day ,life-time collection will be between 200-230crs….
oh come on…
salman films doing 27crore on non holyday ramdan.. n u say fan has target of 3 yr old film with much smaller actor .
i think it shld do atleast 22 cr .
@KAALI the cartoon
we salman fans dont need to screenshot articals…
cause wen we expected bajrangi bhaijan to do 260-270 cr it end up doing 320 cr n 620 cr worldwide
evn without holyday on weekdays..
…
…
n i remember u srk fans dreaming of beating dhoom then pk n nevr crossed 230 cr in life.
n dnt evn get.me started on wat happened at time of dilwale n HNY
nope. this time no rohit, deepika, Diwali, Christmas so we can’t expect more than 100 cr life time. opening will be 10-14 cr maximum with best word of mouth and if mixed word of mouth than only 10 cr opening and 60 cr life time.
srk has not crossed ready yet without deepika or rohit shetty never forget this.
so fan,raees will be less than 120cr for sure no matter how good is wom.
Without NO DOUBT!!! SRK Rules!
opening day will be around 27-30 crore. minimum 25 crore is on.. rest depends upon content.. if negative wom. then 140 crore. if mixed wom 175 crore. if positive 200 crore. if extremely positive then 250 crores
Being a genuine king fan, i can not really expect fan to cross more than 100 cr without rohit, deepika, big festivals, etc. for us, king is not made for breaking box office records because that’s out of his reach. he is made for beautiful acting, performance, quality, etc. our king is nor really known as a megastar, superstar, etc. but he is known as messiah of acting, romance,etc. he is a living legend when it comes to acting and so he will always be remembered more as a great actor rather than superstar or megastar. So we can comfortable expect fan to cross 90 cr because that’s way too much for us to expect. but we will be thrilled if our beloved idol crosses 150 cr and shows never seen before miracle.
Incidine should check his calendar 15 April is holiday of ram navami so 30cr is sure on day one other things will depend on the quality of movie. Someone said Ranbir is better than srk I want to say him ask to Ranbir you will get answer
Why incidine doesn’t talk about worldwide collection
It’s opening day should fall within besharam and krish 3. Lifetime… Should be between twm 2 and Bajirao Maastani as thing stands for now. It’s definitely subject to alteration after other parameters spurs up.

1. “more so after a trailer that received a good response from majority of the audience.”
good or awesome response Indicine?
2. i called Ranbir as flopbir,u didn’t approve my comment, here look at the 1st comment. he said “haklu” but u approved the comment. why this biasness indicine?
Please I urge everyone not to compare Shah rukh khan movies collection with anyone’s , he is beyond comparison whatever movies collection that are from his devoted fans as we saw in Dilwale 150 cr enough to be a king of Bollywood. It’s very unfair to compare SRK movie collections with other as we all very much know how those people who are playing dirty politics, conspiracies, n many of jealous Saman fans will not see his movies that surely affect the business. King Khan is unbeatable, FAN will b blockbuster no matter whatever the collections it’s purely from his fans.
FAN will be collect on 1st Day between 20-25 crores…..
Of course it will beat YJHD(Ranbir Kapoor-31st May-2013)…..
Unlikely….my one word comment and indicine is says its under moderation….to reply to ur qstn wd a comment “unlikely”….is in moderation for almost 4 hrs now….is d word “unlkely” … abuse or insult or derogatory.. am i missing smthn hrre…..cn u plz enlighten me indicine abt ur moderation policy….seriously wadafuq is wrong wd u

No chance for opening more than 15 Cr. Some idiots are predicting 200 Cr shamelessly despite knowing that this film cant even cross 100 Cr life time. Shame on such sick people.
Opening sure more than 25 cr
ROFL @ROCKSTER 2016. Are you sure you are not a Salman fan? I dislike your comment despite naming SRK no.1 for acting and talenting. You chuha if you like write 1-9 SRK and then 10th Salman We SRKIANS will.always dislike that comment and protest. Are you in your senses? Truly if you are Ranbir fan you must rate him above Salma Begum! Salma Begum better actor than Ranbir is acceptable for you people but the joke of the day is Salma begum more talented and better actor than Aamir and Ajay? Am I seeing double in your comments or I am highly intoxicated?
No chance to cross 115 Cr. Billu Fan looks like a sequel to Billu so we can expect it to cross Billu record but how can we expect this maha crap of the millenium to cross 100 Cr when sarukh with help of rohit, varun couldn’t save varunwaale from tanking badly on Christmas. ???.
Continuation please indicine am doing.
@Rockster 2016. And so what if Salman has 4 films in top 10 but who has the highest day 1? SRK that is star power be it Edx or no Edx! You are the funniest reader I came across. It’s like you are insulting neutral audiences that are cinema followers. Salman is even way behind Akshay Hrithik in acting soo rating him above a Ajay and a Aamir is ridiculous and sign of mental patient. As for Ranbir it’s 50-50 may be a better actor than Akshay Ranveer Hrithik but ahead of Aamir Ajay? Please just admit you started watching bollywood films from the day Bajrangi bhaijan was released. Salman is miles behind Aamir as a actor Ajay to. You need visit a physicartrst. No one Inn bollywood acts better than SRK then Ajay Aamir not in this era. Write sensible. Just have to accept that and live with it bro. He can be gifted the title megastar but a very poor actor. Indicine I am a very big fan of your site. carry on Goodluck.
”HRITHIK ROSHAN” ………………. this name is enough for everybody….
Power of King Khan Shah Rikh Khan.?#?FAN?Advance Booking has started in Middle East. All Shows of 15th April Sold Out !!!!! OMG ” All Time Record “
