It was touted to be the month of sequels, but the announcement of ‘Dear Zindagi’ for November 25, a date which was earlier taken by ‘Kahaani 2’ – made it a month dominated by sequels / franchise films, with ‘Dear Zindagi’ being the only other major release.
Let’s take a look at some of the major release in November 2016:
Rock On 2: The first release of November is the sequel to the 2008 film, Rock On!!, a film that worked with a small section of the audience. The new member of the cast is Shraddha Kapoor, the film has a new director too in Shujaat Saudagar. But with less than 5 days to go for release, there is hardly any real interest to watch it in theatres. Rock On 2 will be word of mouth dependent. FBO: 5.5 crore. LBO: 28 crore.
Force 2: The John Abraham starrer has the potential to be the 2nd highest opener of November, mainly because the timing of release is perfect and the trailer has managed to generate quite a bit of interest. However, John’s last film ‘Rocky Handsome’ opened poorly at the box office even though it released on ‘Good Friday’ holiday. FBO: 7.9 crore. LBO: 43 crore.
Tum Bin 2: It’ll be a clash of two franchise films as ‘Tum Bin 2’ will take on ‘Force 2’ at the box office, but both films are targeted at different audience. Not many remember the first film ‘Tum Bin’ which released in 2001 and some people who do, remember the film for its music. There is hardly any buzz, but the costs are on the lower side. Anubhav Sinha returns as director 5 years after ‘Ra One’. FBO: 2.6 crore. LBO: 12 crore.
Dear Zindagi: It’s by far the biggest release of the month. The two promos have been liked and Alia Bhatt sharing screen-space with Shah Rukh Khan will generate a lot of interest. The film also marks the returns of ‘English Vinglish’ director Gauri Shinde and if her second film is as good as her film, it should be the biggest hit of the month too. Shah Rukh’s presence will add a lot of value at ‘Tier 2’ cities as well. FBO: 11.6 crore. LBO: 76 crore.
There are other smaller releases as well. Saansein – The Last Breath, Chaar Sahibzaade – Rise of Banda Singh Bahadur, 30 Minutes, Dongri Ka Raja, Yeh Hai Lollipop – all with Rock On 2 on November 11.
Note: The final FBO prediction will be made on Thursday (a day before release) and LBO prediction on Sunday morning (or two days after release).

@ 4:36 pm , abe dumbistani Where did u find SRK is playing the role of grandfather ?SRK is playing alia’s teacher ,her guide who motivates her and teaches her how to love.SRK’s role is same as Salman ‘s role of ‘ love guru’ in film Partner.
SRK may get two awards in filmfare, one for best actor in leading role for FAN & another award for 2nd time in best supporting actor category after deewana.
@Bicky
Cool! But seriously? “SUPPORTING ACTOR” in Deewana. Dude he was the lead. Deewana was the 2nd highest grosser of 1992 after BETA. Rishi kapoor had 0 solo hits and almost no movie in top 5-top 10 solo (mostly multi) in 90s decade, u calling deewana his movie????
Even the chemistry of srk-divya bharti received praise
@Sayar : Can you please tell me dude why son of Big B, son of Feroze Khan, son of Sanjay Khan and son of Harry Baweja or Suresh Oberoi are not even half successful as Aamir, Salman & Ajay Devgan ? It is easy to give family connection but actually it is lot difficult for Star sons to prove themselves. They may get launchpad but not only surviving but ruling on top for years takes a lot. Please don’t be a blind fanatic fan !!!!!!!
@NN : In that case so called class and top acting couldn’t save YLJK, Trimurti, Billu and FAN from sinking !!!!!!!
Force 2 !!!!!! Not interested in Piku 2 even if turns out to be good. Uske baad Dangal hoga !!!!!!!
Recently The Malayalam Movie “Pulimurugan” Became The 1st 100 cr Grosser Mallu movie (total business).
And the main thing is its budget is only 24 cr. (Its a very huge budget for mallu movies)
It also became the movie with highest number of shows in UAE/GCC by beating Kabali & Sultan.
Mohanlal became the first Indian actor who have 3 All Time Blockbuster within 2 Months. (Janatha Garage, Oppam & Pulimurugan)
Post an article about this.
Malayalam Industry is Making Big & Its Growing Very Fast.
And there is a 300 crore movie “Karnan” is also Coming, which stars “Prithviraj” in lead & it will have known actors from other film industries.
It will be a film like Bahubali & some Bahubali crew including cinematographer also working in “karnan”.
Hope u include news about Malayalam movies also here.
@hrithik now dont show your hypocracy again when i bash salman. Your moronic mate @Salman Khan King khan is the one who has been bashing aamir l the day. What do you think about aamir fans to take him for granted and keep ignoring his cheap behavior? I am warning you to stop him before bashing salman.
In only 10 days, Shivaay has now surpassed the lifetime total of Fan [85 crore]. The film brought in 17.09 crore in the second weekend and with that its overall total stands at 87.5 crore. The Ajay Devgn directed, produced and enacted film is fighting it out on a daily basis and that reflects in the steady footfalls it has managing to gain.
Now it’s very much clear that Shivaay will enter 100cr club before it’s 3rd weekend.
Obviously Dear Zindagi. Its looking exciting.
