This page has been created to discuss the answers to question posted in the AskIndicine Live QnA
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.
sorry to say, srk found another gaurav in me
ur biggest fan turn into ur biggest enemy
@Javed/ Sweet_Heart : Control your emotions. This is not the way to react to someone, whom you followed once upon a time.
On a lighter note, someone said it rightly in one of the comments, “It was better to lose into the clash instead of changing the dates”.
Disappointment is not only because of this news, but because of timings as well.
If SRK and Adi share a nice bonding, they should taken this decision long back. Just five days back, we came across the new that Raees shooting has been completed, in next 4 days, we have FAN and in between, this news floats around.
However, still I believe this is a masterstroke played by SRK haters. By doing this, they will promote hatred towards SRK on social media which will eventually affect FAN. Also, this might help Sultana to be received as an “Eid Release” by audiences since it’s teaser is scheduled to be out on April 15 (within a week). So , I will still wait for the official confirmation and I urge other SRK fans not to blow into emotions, instead wait for the announcement coming out form official twitter handle of the makers.
@Hrithik 10:20 pm : Don’t worry about our facial expressions, as even if this news turns out to be true, this will only ruin the Eid festival like recent years (exempt BB).
@Joker_Roshan 12:58 am : Lol, don’t put words into our mouth. Yes, as I said before, this is indeed a sad news and disappointment for us, but that is not going to alter our devotion towards SRK even a bit. So just relax.

Ohh really..? Yes, your statement is indeed true. We SRK fans support him, but this is not a blind devotion. Our ego is connected to SRK and whenever it hurts, we don’t waste a second to express it out.
Yes, we are indeed different from you all, because we don’t support him blindly in any court proceeding (e.g. hit-and-run , black buck etc) , instead we just analyze the things and react accordingly and we are the one who happily accepted the 6 years ban imposed on him (in Wankhede incident).
Also, We are the one, who openly condemn his intolerance remark.
So that doesn’t make us his enemy nor it snatches the rights from us, to support him afterwards.
All it does is, it makes us stand in a complete different category and not in that category, whose members are generally called “illiterates” by rest of the fan bases.
@ Chinmay at 4:28 am : U r talking as if Salman fans actually needed any green signal from me to bash SRK. It was supposedly a fun and ironical comment indicating that expectedly SRK bashing (which can be seen from the comments) will start however the irony seems to be lost on u.
As far as Javed and other fans are concerned I didn’t ask them not to be disappointed which I m myself very very much. I just advised them not to give up on your idol on this matter. This decision will be as tough for SRK himself as he would have anticipated the negativity that will follow but he has made it for some reason known to him and we should support him whatever that reason may be.
As much as I m disappointed I will still call this a tiny matter keeping in view the happiness and entertainment which SRK has brought to me for the last 25 years. In front of all that this changing of release date of one movie will not make any difference in my love and respect for him.
I don’t mind anybody calling me a chameleon or whatever as I don’t need anybody’s certificate to be called a SRK fan.
Good decision by Raees team,i mean after Dilwale underperfomed and lost the clash it won’t be good if Raees ends up loosing again.
@ Challa at 10:01 pm : Thanks mate.
@ xzone at 12:37 pm : Top comments.
With a fan like Javeeda who needs a Gaurav…
Instead of Billu Fan yrf should have cast prisonstani javeeda instead- plus they could have used the terrorist angle also…!
At last Eid will be saved- couldnt stomach another Eid full of Lungi Dancers dancing to criminal soundtrack…!
@ Adz at 9:04 pm : Thanks and agreed.
So The anti hindu anti india anti bollywood Javeeda has today become the anti hindu anti india anti bollywood anti Queen lunatic…!
Lol

Not a fan of SRK, but some of comments against him are truly in bad taste..
To all srkians friends-All I said was what my heart was saying-I loved srk and supported him always-I supported him at the time of his bad movies also-Its not about economical and business decisions -Sometimes there are matters of pride and ego.Why SRK didnt postpone Dilwale to 25th when SLB announced date of 18 earlier?Wasnt it wise from business point of view to get a wide release by releasing on National Holiday and letting the other movie collect its maximum in its week and then enjoying two weeks of free run with 2 big holidays in first week itself?Wasnt it ethically good to release Dilwale on 25th as SLB announced it earlier?When SRK knew that movie isnt that good to take the holiday advantage in its 2nd week then why he released?If that was the case of EGO then why not now??Back then we were expecting a regular masala film whose trailer received mixed reviews but here RAEES teaser got extremely positive reviews.But despite negative wom of Dilwale and extremely positive wom of BRM I supported and watched Dilwale.I defended Dilwale-I hadnt watched BRM yet despite many people said that it deserve a watch on big screen-Leave big screen I hated that movie so badly for clashing with srk movie that I hadnt watched it on laptop/Tv and doesnot have any plan to watch it in future only because I hate everything that comes between SRK and success.
Now Raees was announced first ,Raees shoot finished first,Raees teaser came first I mean everything of Raees came first-If you were not ready for this then why to release teaser on EID 2015??I mean does it make it sense to release teaser one year ago when you are shivering with fear of another star?The Eid release was srk right then why to back off?Ok Srk and Adi are friends.it was Raees that was being announced first and then Adi came in and said “sultan will release on eid knowing that srk announced it first”-is this what we call friendship???Ok many people announce movies like this but then you postpone your movie and give release date on the name of friendship to the one who came and intervened later knowing that you are going ahead -I mean we all should f**k such friendship. Srk shouldnt keep such friends who by knowing everything came later and disturbed his release date.Ethically Adi needed to postpone movie but why srk did?
At the end when a movie release doesnot have any impact on my personal,social or personal life.We fight here for stars,we spend time on @Indicine to defend our star-If Srk will postpone his moive it will be srk who will be insulted by his haters,Srk will be called by bad names like “darpook,bhagora ” and I love him so much that I cant see his insult by other fan bases.But when srk himself doesnot have any problem with it then I dont have any right to defend srk anywhere.
What I said above is based on the assumption that “Raees is/will be postpone”-As for now my heart says that this news is not true and srk will never let himself and his fans down.As for now my confidence and love for SRK is 100% and planning to watch FAN this saturday with full enthusiasm and energy.Love SRK
I am no fan of SRK or Salman but i respect both these individual for what they did to hindi cinema.
Coming back to clash, i think if rumor are to believed its the best things that can happen to hindi cinema.
People may bash me for saying this but Hindi films industry is loosing its sheen. Regional movies, impact of hollywood and poor quality of cinema have ensured that year on year downslide.
There are handful of stars that guarantee good moolah and if they start clashing to settle ego score then hindi cinema market will keep on shrinking.
So if its true, its a brave decision by SRK.
@Disaster Kerala, U better worry about the upcming back to bacl hattrick of disaster by grandpa srk. Fanny and Rice both will be biggest disasters. Dont worry about the Biggest megastar’s movie dangal as it will take record breaking opening and will be HGOAT.
@Javed @Sweethirt… control your self bros… Really I have also sad after this rumours.. I don’t think Srk will postpone Raees…Really Bhai fans Affraid the clash with khan…but they are happy because of creating Srk vs Srk fans fights….
@Hrithik… lol ur lallu fans also making so much imaginary stories…. And also wait & watch Which stories will be the best???
#Fasal kerala
i do agree with @xzone ….why SRK should be the one to sacrifice here?? it is not fair……and srk even said if eid is belong to bhaitard so be it…..SRK why you are sooo humble????? you really have a holden heart i must say….But you should not sacrifice for them……i want you to release raees on eid …..case close

@indicine
Must publish my last comment
@Disaster Kerala, dont cry baby. Worry about fanless bakri’s all time disaster opener Fanless star ka sabse eklauta fan.
@ANK. Exactly. U dont need a certificate to be called lallulal fan. U are lallulal’s fan pretending to be srk fan. U also seem to happy that classless bhojpuri movie Floptan is getting a solo release and u calling it a blockbuster? It shows how much u support that disastrous actingg less talentless spoonfed star rather thab supporting a self made megastar and biggst megastar who is baap of that tiny none actor lallulal since 1992. Even if Floptan will get a solo release, it will strughle to be a hit while Raees will be ATBB even if it faces clash with anything. Get this in ur head u lallulal supporter.
@indicine
Yes publish all comments on other articles but not the one I wrote after spending my precious time??
@AK Fan…. Yes Fan less x-mas mega disaster star will take record opening At Tingu Land….there will Tingu fans like uuu sing a song like Box record is a waste of time!!!!

#Fasal kerala
ROFL !!!! Chaddi Banyan ki daring. Fun seeing so many burnt lungies, poor @ANK getting bashing from his own mates for speaking truth, hats off to you @ANK others are just blind fanatics and want to use SRK for their own gains !!!!!!!!
@xzone you are neither a sheep or a goat but a two faced bimbo moron terrorist who don’t which side of the fence you live but then most dyslexia individual have a problem differentiating which is true or false as you have the tendency to read things backward. SRK is no fool but you most certainly are because you have become the laughing ? stock of your neighbors and friends because you say you don’t accept things blindly but your comments prove you do. You call me a bimbo but I am a rich bimbo which You can never hope to become because you ain’t got the brains of either a sheep or goat. You are nothing but a bimbo gay terrorist
