Dilwale Week 1 Box Office Collections

Dilwale has collected Rs 102.65 crore in its first week at the box office, which is the 15th highest opening week of all time. The film was steady on its 7th day at the box office, but it hasn’t shown the kind of growth that was expected out of it on Thursday.

The extended holiday weekend began yesterday and the film had to pick up by around 10-15%, which would have been a positive trend going into the all-important second weekend. The growth from Wednesday, however, was just 5%.

There has been a lot of talk about protests affecting the film, so we decided to talk to a few people in the trade to discuss the real impact of disruptions. Trade sources put the All-India impact on business at around 4-5% for the first weekend and less than 2% during the weekdays when things calmed down. This equals to a loss of around Rs 4-5 crore for the first week.

More than the protests, the key for Dilwale was to sustain and show a positive trend at centres where it had an uninterrupted run. Moreover, the losses incurred is expected to be recovered this weekend, as the film is now running at 99% of centres in India where it was previously scheduled to run.

Moving away from the past and into the future, the second weekend will be extremely crucial for Dilwale. But even though it has enough shows at multiplexes, Dilwale has lost about 30% of its shows at multiplexes to both ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ and ‘Bajirao Mastani’.

Having said that, the shows are spaced out well throughout the day and as long as the occupancy is high, Dilwale still has a chance to score in its second weekend.

  • As I mentioned earlier a section of media has always been against SRK and Rohit Shetty. Few of them are The Hindu, Firstpost.com, Hindustan Times(gave 2.5 stars to MY NAME IS KHAN) etc. These Media people always underreported Dilwale.
    None of the media people mentioned that footfalls of Dilwale is higher than BM even on the weekdays.
    None blamed SRK’s dear FRIEND Sanjay Leela Bhansali for doing monopoly and booking all premium single screens for 1 week under a contract.
    No one reported the beating up of Members of the march begun by SRK Fans in support of Dilwale.
    No one said the average ticket price of Dilwale was on the lower side compared to BM.
    And when Dilwale started thrashing their so called CLASSIC movie BajiraoMastani in the overseas market, they stopped reporting about Dilwale.
    No one reported that Dilwale releases in lesser screens in India(2650) and overseas(753) than your BM(3050+850).
    Even in overseas market DILWALE got screens with lesser ticket price n it still thrashed BM.

    This Anti-SRK campaign was a planned one, with media and so called HINDUs playing equal role.
    But still we are way ahead morons Dilwale has grossed 250 crores worldwide which in itself is a tight slap on your face.
