Q. Have heard rumours about Raees vs Sultan not happening and it is Raees that is moving ahead. Any truth in that? – ANK
A. Although an official announcement is yet to be made, it’s more or less certain now that Raees will be moving to a different date. Reliable sources have now confirmed that Sultan will get a solo release.
Two massive films like Raees and Sultan simply cannot get the release they deserve, if they release on the same day. Given Salman’s track record during Eid and the average performance of Dilwale at the domestic box office, Sultan was always the hotter film in the trade. Right from the day YRF announced the film for Eid, there was never really any question or doubt over that.
Q. Will the excellent opening and a potential strong weekdays hold of The Jungle Book affect the final screen count of FAN? – Ashish Thapar
A. FAN might lose out on a few shows at multiplexes, as exhibitors might retain more shows of ‘The Jungle Book’. It would also depend on how well the Hollywood film holds on Friday, but it isn’t going to make much of a difference. The fate of FAN is dependent on how well the film is liked by the audience, nothing else matters.
Q. Which film takes 100% opening on first day & collected to its full potential? – Pratik
A. No film in the last 10 years has taken a 100% opening. The last film that really opened to a earth-shattering response was Ek Tha Tiger, followed by Dhoom 3. The year-on-year growth was phenomenal - Bodyguard did 21 crore and Ek Tha Tiger collected nearly 50% more.

Javed bhaijaan and Sweet_heart
Come on guys …what’s that for?
No a real Fan will look at those as minor issues… Am sure there will be a way out for both the movies.
After attending the Oscars we went to India and returned a couple weeks ago. While in India based on feedback I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt the SRK was afraid of clashing with Salman. It had become so obvious. It was sealed to avoid the clash when he privately viewed Sultan teasers he may be a coward but he is fool because he knew the same thing would happen that happened with dilwale he cannot afford to pay out more monies. Sad but true.
Raees was postponed on day when Sultan announced for Eid.
But makers of Raees & Srk kept their hope that some how Sultan will not get ready in time.
But sadly(For Team Raees) Everything went well for Sultan.
RCE made decision on postponement few days back & they informed trade experts like Komal Nahta & Tuteja but then R.Sidhwani delayed this announced immediately by saying its rumor.
Its his poor attempt to gather some buzz but in this process Komal Nahta got trolled.
But once they make official announcement Komal Nahta will troll them badly even more than Salman fans.
Hahahahaha….. Srk fans just chilll…… Its good raees is postpone bcoz its a smart decision. . .. Even sultan could shift so just chill……
@javed @sss @xzone @fazalkarela @challa @fan_500 kindly support ur hero during his weak timee…… Srk bhag gaya hai par zinda hai…. He can recollect his respect by doing wonders at box office…. Wish him luck
ha ha ha ha,LOOK AT SRKIANS,1ST TIME I’M seeing fear in their comments.IS IT YOUR LOVE FOR THE KING?MY question to both @sweet heart,@javed,is it really your patience that will suddenly comes to an end?
@KAALI,both of them are highly emotional,ROFL.
now look,this type of shitty rumours had been started from DILWALE period.and @indicine wrote this so confidently that RAEES will be avert THE CLASH SO MANY TIMES THAT I DIDN’T WANT TO EVEN REMEMBER blah blah.
but WE have seen not ONCE,NOT TWICE,BUT FOR THRICE TIME FROM THE GUY CALLED “RITESH SIDHWANI—RAEES IS COMING ON THIS EID”.
I have complete TRUST on that MAN,and these type of shitty rumours not at all affects me even a bit.
just think before the clash of DILWALE VS bm,@indicine said the same ,DILWALE is the hot at the trade.but what happened?CONTENT IS THE KING HERE BABY.
FARHAN AKHTAR too said the same—-RAEES WILL RELEASE AND IT WILL TREND GREAT.
now if you can’t believe yourself,your idol and last but not least @indicine then believe on THAT 2 GUY(KING KHAN IS NOT THE PRODUCER),THEY’LL SURELY RELEASE THE MOST AWAITED MOVIE OF THE YEAR—-RAEES ON THIS EID.
if THEY’LL back off then how can IT’LL be KING KHAN’S FAULT?HE is not even the producer.if HE would be the producer,HE never would have even think of avert THE CLASH?still why I’M writing all these craps ?AS RAEES IS COMING ON THIS EID.
RITESH SIDHWANI,aaja YAAR phir se bole de SRKIANS ko,RAEES IS RELEASING ON THIS EID,HA HA HA HA.otherwise I’M fearing THESE SRKIANS will make FAN-2 here,ROFL.
@ANK,lallutards will get ammunition to bash US?oh really?please don’t type this type of hopeless comments.that day will be the last day of MY LIFE when I’LL let a single lallutard to bash MY IDOL/MY FELLOW SRKINAS freely in the presence of myself here.
so please ALL SRKIANS get back to your normal breathe,be easy,everything is fine.crap announcement,official announcement,aaj ka,kal ka announcement,what’s this?
these are tactics of some bunch of trades to move away RAEES who has no hope on RAEES but fears never before of IT due to IT’S HYSTERIA TEASER.same thing happened against bm too,but they remained calm,AND RITESH,FARHAN are THE GUYS WHO knows their crappy opponent ali abbas+salman very well.
NOW WAITING FOR RITESH SIDHWANI’S ANNOUNCEMENT,#RAEES ON EID 2016,HA HA HA HA….
@sallu fans,few minute pleasure.jee lo apni jindagi,kya pata yeh akhri bhi ho sakta hain,ROFL.
@tiger-the real takla,ha ha ha ha ,please see who is saying this?yes KING KHAN lost in domestic only against ranveer.but what happened with sallu+akki in 2006?they raped by KING KHAN AND EXCEL ENTERTAINMENT’S DON.and please don’t talk about CLASH,because your idol never even survived rather than raped in each and every clashes be that’s by KING KHAN or Ranbir/tushar/emraan,ROFL.bhagoda kaun hain woh jaldi pata chali jayegi,rumour failana band karo.
@sk,ha ha ha ha this would have suited if you idol sallu ewould have survived in any battle(clash).so this word—-darr gaya doen’t suit on you,ROFL.
@anand_the original takla,what a desperate happy moment?are you so much scared of RAEES that suddenly you started behaving so good with KING KHAN AND HIS COMMUNITY,this fear I wanted to see in each every lallutard’s comment.
@rahul4ever,but during marigold or yuvraj days I didn’t ever listened/watched ever of salman fans went near his home or went near theatres to watch movies,ROFL.what a shitty joke!!!!!!!,ROFL.
AN ACTOR can never back off,i anyone have to back off then it’s the non actor and the shitty director.
#RAEES ON THIS EID 2016.
if the official announcement comes that Raees has been postponed then I am not an SRK fan anymore, Bollywood will be finished for me.
pehle javed srk k peeche bhaagta tha
ab srk javed k peeche bhagega
javed hai toh srk hai
javed nahi toh srk bhi nahi
@popeye, there is no chance of saying Rip ok records now, as we all know that it’s not a cup of tea for Salman to break records as even his best WOM Movie BB also failed to break Pk record. He chased 3 idiots for 5 years and his kick also failed to come close to Aamir’s D3 record and same will happen. Sultan will not come anywhere close to D 3 forget PK. PRDP also failed to break dhoom 3’s record. Poor Salman. Trying hard to compete with his daddy Aamir, but fails every time. Baap akhir Baap hota hai aur beta beta hota hai. Only one man can challenge his own record and That is The Megastar Aamir Khan Himself..!!!! No one can come clos to him.

This is how you separate the sheep ? from the goats. The difference between a Salman Khan and an SRK fan is the depth of loyalty and support that Salman fans give to him. Even when we were disappointed that he did not have an eid release in 2013 we still backed him all the way. Now that SRK realizes that it would be foolish to clash with Sultan at eid and has averted the clash his fans are lasing out at him. Even threatening not to watch the movie and some are even saying they hope it fails.
Now you see how closely love and hate are linked with these so called selfish individuals, if you can only support someone when they are on the mountain top and not in the valley, then you are neither good for heaven or for earth, it shows how fickle your love for SRK is and you ought to be ashamed of yourselves.
A clash would not have mattered to me personally because I don’t watch his films and don’t care whether they make money or not more than others. But disloyalty is a no no in my books and I thank God that Salman’s fans are loyal through thick and thin. Remember that SRK is no fool.
@true actor actually he should make a dialogue like “Darr Gaya hun Main…!!!O:-)
@ANK get lost u chameleon. U cant be true srk fan. I am true fan. U are supporting that none actor and his fans? It was actually srk who announced raees first way back and he also worked much harder for his character while that lazy none actor lallulal only started shooting some few mnths ago. I am very disappointed and u are making fun of srk fans? U cant be srk fan. So stop pretending to be. Salman fans are cheapest who never respect srk and his talent, but still u are giving them green signal to bash ur own idol and telling other srk fans like Javed and Sweet heart that stop reacting for this tiny matter? Shame on u..
Kuch bhi ho, HGOTY will be only dangal. It doesnt matter weather raeesi clash or not, HGOTY will be only dangal. When MEGASTAR AND THE LION OF BOLLYWOOD AAMIR KHAN has a release, then no one else has any chance to deliver HGOTY. Period…!
Feeling still quite sad over that decision by Raees team. A practical decision but hurts still. So today is gonna be an off day. Anyways it will pass away too.
Glad that Fan release is near and hopefully the joy of seeing Gaurav on screen will take away this disappointment iA.
@haters different between srk and others where other stars like aamir did 3 movies in previous 4 years including a sequel of sucsseful franchise dhoom and srk did nearly 3 movies with clash in recent time jthj V/S SOS , DILWALE V/S BAJIRAO and chennai exp just before 5 days to OUTIM doobara it’s clearly show the fearless attitude of him bcoz 2 movies from these three were produce by his own production house other hand so called megastar don’t want to leave eid relese date how insecure he is after massive shock with jai ho he not even to dare to think about any other date now come to the clash situation
1- sultan produce by yrf who share a great bonding with srk so may be srk can postpone due to respect
2- raees doesn’t produce by srk’s home production red chilly so may be he not want to loss for excel production house.
3- in recent bonding with salman and he always help to his buddies bcoz he no his previous track record without eid and his acting skill he had not many clashes won experience like srk nor great acting skill
but I want forgot all these thing you announced first so you have yo release raees on eid bcoz in my opinion nothing is going worst than last Christmas conditions wid less screen negative wom , protest you listed your movie in top ten world wide grosser against a masterpiece so this time it’s raees not dilwale you have to stick with eid
Rustom pre ponded to 5 august weekend
Clash averted
Indicine public that news
This @ANK thinks of himself as too much versmart and i think he is not a real srk an. A real srk fan saying happy bashing time to salman’s illiterate fans can not be srk fan. @ANK get out of your mask you chamaleon. Srk doesnt need fake fan like u. He has millions of fans who can make all salman’s illiteraze bhojpuri fans cry. Go bhojpurian, u must be a bhjpuri salman fan pretending to be srk fan. Get lost u chamaleon. My sincere request to all srk fans, dont ever follow this pseudo intellectual chamaleon @ANK who is indirectly supporting that none actor lallu.
@ANK try whatever u can, u are caught red handed by me. No Need to portray urself as srk fan as we all know u are that bhojpuri none actor’s pseudo fan…
never release raees only sultan this eid
@Anand_The Original, @Rahul4Ever love your comments brothers such a nice gesture by Salman Fans, Srk fans should learn this from us after all we (Salman Fans) are all “BEING HUMAN”. Trust me even I don’t want to bash Srk and his Fans but few sorry not few all Srk pathetic fans make me do it.
Some Srk fans comments are so pathetic I can’t even explain it. You know there are two types of Fans one is Fame Fan (like few Srk Fans) who love his star b/c he or she is famous, once there stardom decreases they (fans) started disliking them (Stars) and then there is Die Hard Fans (SALMAN FANS) who always support his star no matter in which phase he is (good or bad). I am 100% sure that if Salman decide to move his movie SULTAN to another date we all Salman Fans still support him, but look at the comment of some Srk fans they already started bashing Srk….
I guess the makers of Raees are more concerned about FAN’s performance at the box office. If it does very well, then they will gain enough confidence to clash with Sultan. Let’s wait and watch.
@indicine how do u know raees would have got a better opening in overseas? As if u have got a team of astrologers and u can predict a movie’s result! Please do it with all the films
@Indicine Team i am asking Chance For providing Articles , Papers, Scripts you are not at all responding give me a chance to prove ourselves as Universe, India, Mother Land, Mother, God Father.

It was all publicity stunt… Both movies have got unlimited free publicity in last year or so due to this “clash” drama… Dono mile hue hain…
Though, it’s not yet confirmed but if happens, this will be really a sad news for me. Raees shooting has been completed, besides, if Adi and SRK are friends, vice-versa is also true. So why SRK should sacrifice here?
If Raees is not releasing on EID, then I won’t be excited in it anymore. I am sorry SRKians, but forget about FDFS (as I have watched 7 out of last 11 SRK releases FDFS), I doubt I will show up even in the weekends, if Raees is getting postponed.
Raees, releasing on Eid, was related to our prestige. At the same time, it was a nice opportunity to show all bhabhijan fans their real place. This clash would have been marked a full stop on the decade long debate of “Who is bigger – SRK or Salman”. Still I hope, this news comes out as a rumor and Raees releases on its scheduled date.
And if this turns out to be a rumor, then it will be a tight slap on the face of Indicine too. Just look at below lines :
/*
Raees was perfect for Eid, but it’s suicidal to take on Salman + YRF. The only hope would be extremely positive WOM. But even then, giving a film a good release is essential, as the share at multiplexes drops in Week 2 and investors lose. There is a no way that Raees would have got a good single-screen release either. Both because of Salman and YRF factor.
*/
Guys, you have proven yourself as the biggest flatterer of Bhabhijan in recent times. But still you couldn’t answer a simple question that if Bhabhijan and Eid were synonym to each other, why it took 5 years for her to cross the collections of 3 idiots. Also, if she is such a big name, then why Flop Ho struggled so badly at ticket window…?
@SK 5:40 pm : Sultana will have the worst teaser, that is for sure. That gives me one more reason to be sad, as why SRK allows this crap teaser to be shown in between FAN. It will just destroy the whole enjoyment.
@Neeraj 6:02 pm : Beta, just wait for a while. You will get an answer what number your shaking Jadoo deserves on a scale of 10. I always admired Hrithik and considered him as one of my favorites. But enough is enough. This Neerja never leaves a single opportunity to bash SRK. Now see, what negativity I spread for Mohan-se-Mat-Daro . Today onwards, I will make sure I thrash your idol and his crappy film from left, right and centre.
Only Rustom this Independence Day.
@Chuhe my loyal JACK 6:39 pm : IF winning a clash is the criteria of going ahead with another clash, then I guess, your bhabhijan should be afraid releasing a movie even against Rajpal Yadav. Because, we all know she has a record of losing the clashes with almost everyone in the industry. Be it new comers or established actors. Lol.
@Chuhe 6:52 pm : Bhabhijan kept on looking for a favorable date and when she didn’t get one, she postponed her movies and didn’t have a single release in 2013. That was the biggest shame , but you retards didn’t commit suicide. Then why should we do it now?
@Anand 8:15 pm : Just stop quoting me wrong. When did I say that I will stop following SRK if Raees gets postponed. Show me single comment of mine. SRK is not just a star, but a devotion for me. Yes, this news has seriously affected me a lot and still I hope this will turn out to be a rumor. But there is no question of not following him just because of this news. I will continue following SRK till my last breathe. These stupid things won’t affect my devotion towards him. But if Raees is not coming on Eid, then I won’t be excited for it like before.
