The theatrical trailer of FAN has been received positively both by the trade and the audience, as the film is being touted as Shah Rukh Khan’s return to roles that demand on-screen histrionics.
Comparisons are being made to films like ‘Darr’ and ‘Baazigar’, which kick-started Shah Rukh’s career in the industry and made him the superstar that he is today.
Some tweets:
- Milap Zaveri: The Fan trailer is simply FANtastic! This is the Shah Rukh Khan, I grew up being the biggest fan off! Baazigar Darr.
- Sidharth Malhotra: Yes (I’ve watched the Fan Trailer) and it looks super thrilling and interesting, eager to watch it
- Ronit Roy: Fan looking so good. I saw the same hunger in the fans eyes I saw in Baazigar. Next SRK level is on. Love you.
- Sujoy Ghosh: This FAN trailer is kickum assum!! no one does menace like SRK.
- Sushant Singh Rajput: As a fan of SRK I have never been a bigger FAN. What a fabulous trailer..
- Nikhil Advani: Now here’s the SRK that we grew up worshipping. DARR revisited.
- Emraan Hashmi: Loved the Fan Trailer!! Great work Shah Rukh Khan!! Waiting for the movie now.
- Varun Dhawan: Wow Shah Rukh sir you have raised the bar yet again. Brilliant YRF and Maneesh Sharma your the man.
- Karan Johar: So this is the trailer of the decade! #Fan… Shah Rukh Khan is unbelievable and pure genius!
However, since the industry is known to over-exaggerate and praise even the most mediocre of movies and trailers, what truly matters at the end of the date is the response from the trade and more importantly, the audience.
Thankfully, the response has been terrific so far. The trade is in a celebratory mood as the trailer of FAN has not only impressed, but also surprised. Industry insiders always knew that the film was going to be ‘Darr’ like, but action sequences in the film along with the popularity of the ‘Jabra’ song released in various languages, has significantly increased the reach and mass-appeal of the film.
The month of April doesn’t usually have big releases – the last big film that went on to be a huge grosser at the box office was Housefull 2 back in 2012. Since then, only films, 2 States and Aashiqui 2, have managed to perform. Big stars have preferred not to release their films, which is why the ‘IPL month’ could see audience flocking to theatres to watch Shah Rukh Khan on the big screen.
On Youtube, the theatrical trailer of FAN has also received more than 4 million views in less than 2 days. In comparison, the first teaser of FAN got 6.5 million views in 7 months and the second teaser has received 10 million views in 4 months. (Note: Youtube only. The combined view count on Youtube and Facebook has crossed 6 million)
With nearly 92000 likes, the theatrical trailer is soon set to cross the 1 lakh likes mark. It’s soon going to be more than the combined ‘likes’ of Fan Teaser 1 (38,000) and Fan Teaser 2 (60,000). The ratio of likes vs dislike is excellent too.
Overall, FAN is set to be the biggest release in the first half of 2016. As far as the all-important box office is concerned, the first target will be a 20 crore opening, which would be excellent if its achieved. It’ll also be interesting to see if YRF go all out and give the film a big release like other commercial films starring Shah Rukh Khan. It also remains to be seen if ticket prices will be increased to festive levels.
Stay tuned for the Indicine FBO and LBO updates later today.
Very Sooon SRK UNIVERSE is going to Organise BURNOL DONATION FOR BHAITARDS…CAUSE AFTER OUTSTANDING FAN TRAILER THERE IS VERY HIGH DEMAND OF BURNOLL FROM BHAITARDS
Bhai is promoting billu 2. Hence, despite being crappp the movie has little chance to surpass 100cr mark.
#Hail Bhaijaan!!
Indicine is again under estimating this movie , To be honest how many people even thing about a genre of an SRK movie on first day…And with this trailer it is confirmed that movie has everything to attract the Audience into theaters atleast for the initial weekend , Then it all depends on Word of mouth…I am expecting Fan to release in 4000+ screens , My Prediction for this movie
Day 1 – 30+ cr [ Even in Worst Case movie will get this collection on Day 1
First Weekend – 100 cr+ [ With Positive WOM , If Negative then it will be in the range of 80-85 cr]
First Week – 180 cr+ [ With Positive WOM , If Negative then it will be in the range of 120-130 cr]
Lifetime –
If Wom is Negative then it will be in the range of 150-160 cr
If average then it will be in the range of 190-210 cr
if Positive then it will cross 300+
if Excellent , then every single record will be broken in the history of Indian Cinema
I am not making any predictions for Overseas as it will always be huge for any SRK movie
Thrillar Genre is always very popular & Favorite to Audiences & mainly Multiplex Audiences.
If FAN get Good Reviews & Good WOM then It will be a huge Grosser.
The response for Trailer is Terrific & all are curious about FAN’s Story as Main plot is clear for all.
All Hollywood films in India get opening by only the help of Trailer & promos.
FAN has outstanding Trailer & YRF & Audience is waiting for the film after looking the Trailer.
So,FAN will get 25cr+ opening in India for sure.
@Indicine
What is your thoughts about FAN’s Overseas Opening???
@Indicine , Please correct the Typo error in my previous comment
Indicine is against under estimating this movie – Change ‘Against’ to ‘Again’
Thanks in Advance
Bhaitards are in shock very baddllyy cause they are unable to find anybody who dint liked the Fan trailer and @iamsrk performance
I’m happy that SRK decided to come with a non-holiday release. Now non-actor fans will realise their real aukaat (as where they actually stand).
Once FAN will thrash Flop Ho collections (which I’m sure, will happen) , be ready to see another set of YRF-Dharma excuses from non-actor fans.
Though now, almost all of his fans (specially my loyal JACK Chuha) are saying it won’t cross 100 cr, but let them come with YRF-Dharma excuses post FAN, I’ll tear their clothes using their own comments.
And my dear friend @Tiger the real BHAITARD
Needs 10 time more Burnoll as compare to other salmaniacs…..
Nobody likes the trailer except few mental asylum returned paglapurians. And nobody will watch it on big screen except those idiots.
A conversation between @tiger chuha & @yuvraj after watching FAN trailer.
.
@chuha : “the movie looks crap, Bhai has acted in the best niche movies like Marigold, Heroes, Veer, London Dreams etc.”
@yuvraj : “yes & the movie is too urban, it should showcase our Indian culture like Bhai did in Biwi No. 1, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya where Bhai romances multiple heroines showcasing true Indian culture.”
.
Genius Bhai fans. Intellectual talks.
.
#Kaali
Tiger the real Shit
Again increased FAN collection….before trailer he was barking crossing MNIK is a big taste for FAN
Then he was Barking FAN wont cross 100cr mark my word
And Now he saying FAN can cross 100cr…..
Even salmaniacs are increasing thete own predictiom abt fAN
Some idiots are always chanting about collections and BO
agar Fan nahi chali to kya pahad tut jayega bhai , SRK ki film na chalne se tum logo ke idol kya bada actor ban jayega?
Actor apne acting se apne kirdar se bada hota hai.
Swades is a flop but its always remembered as a classic. There r many films which failed ,specially classics.
U guys r act like Programmed rodots , don’t feel anything without BO. #Shame
Where as real fans n public know how 2 appreciate good work.
Lots of salman , AK fans actually loved d trailor n appreciate. I m very glad for their honest response.
#FAN

Indicine ,srk fans are still very disappointed with you ,why you have not publish the article till now about the new version of song ‘fan’ , it has gone viral and you still dont care at all ,but no matter you have given the great oppurtunity to publish article so here is the new and latest version ,and if indicine likes it you can also post article ,so i hit it again for srk;
Dislike karu facebook pe.
Boycott karu Twitter pe.
Tere quiz me google pe intolerance ho gaya..(2)
Poster tere fadte hain
Hall me gaali dete h
Tere film ko sabne boycott kar diya..
Tu hain pura dhakan
Aur ghanta bada
Main to dekha kru har
Panga tera.
Pure india me tu sabse jada flop ho gayaaa
Main tera haaye re
jabra hoyee re
jabra enemy hobgya.
O Tujhe wankhede me dekh ke dil me dhan te nan hogaya
Main tera haaye re jabra
Hoye re jabra enemy ho gaya…
@mera ghulam spamzone 2:22pm:
Barking on bhai’s non holiday releases!!! You idiot Bhai has already surpassed 120cr mark on non holiday period- Ready collected 121cr.
But your ugly Overactor yet to touch even 80cr mark on non holiday. But your blabbering indicates that you brainless think 80cr>>>>>120cr….LOL.
2:27pm:
ANDHI ho gayi kya??? Read my 2:25pm comment. I have clearly said that billu 2 may cross 100cr due to getting promotion from Bhai.
Loved the trailer

Niche movies r targeted toward multiplex

@ jabra- lol. i can’t afford to watch salman’s movies in theater more than twice, how can i spend my precious money and time to watch srk’s movies. if i watch any movie except sultan this year in theatre it will be shivaay.
20 crores will be below par considering the holiday And the budget
