‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ has become the 46th film to cross the 100 crore mark. The Hindi version of the film crossed 100 crore on Sunday (yesterday).
It’s also the first film directed by acclaimed-filmmaker Neeraj Pandey to cross the 100 crore mark and the first for Sushant Singh Rajput too.
The average number of 100 crore grossers from the time the industry got its first (Ghajini in 2008) is 6 films per year. This year has seen four 100 crore films so far – Airlift in January, Housefull 3 in June, Sultan in July, Rustom in August and MS Dhoni The Untold Story in September / October.
Four remaining films this year are potential 100 crore grossers – Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Shivaay, Befikre and Dangal. While Dangal is certain to cross 100, the industry needs the other 3 to perform well too. Alia Bhatt’s Dear Zindagi, also starring Shah Rukh Khan, could also surprise if it turns out to be a well-made film and manages to find an audience outside metro cities.

@Beastie gay.
Before 2009 Salman lost to every actor, even to Rajpal Yadav. So don’t give foolish comments.
@Salman fan first tell your so called one man industry to do niche thrillers like fan or talaash and release it on non holiday. We all will see his true stardom. Where was his stardom before prabhu deva’s south remake directorial wanted? Oops. I cant even remember. Please help me remember. ??. No?
@jolly akkiholic,only dumb site can say FAN isn’t a niche movie and custom is a niche movie despite having songs,fights,herojnes,dozens of songs.
Why you’re making yourself a fool?????before saying this,kindly understand the meaning if niche.despite of doing all these STILL YEAR’S BEST PERFORMANCE GIVEN BY KING KHAN’S FAN.
So this allegation better can be applied on lallu yards and lallu.try this upon them,don’t try to show finger towards us otherwise it’ll not be good for you.
Akki gives flop on EDX ,then he never get chance 2 release his movie on EDX ,then his fans cry when others get EDX ,then akki releases his movies on national holiday like republic day ,independence day and successful period like post-ipl
And then his fans declared akki non-holiday king ???
If u laugh while reading this ,then u r laughing on akkians foolishness .Lol
And the fact is he is yet 2 deliver a superhit on pure non-holiday (not post ipl where kangana gives 150+ cr.).
While Salman had given blockbuster and hrithik had given superhit on non-holiday
@TS you clown aamir failed to cross 100 cr in 2012 with the most risky genre, only 2000 screens, low ticket price, and many other disadvantages but guess what it did 93 cr back then. But what about galaxy gigastar shah rofl who failed to do even 90 cr let alone 100 cr in the year 2016 (4 years difference), 3600 screens, high ticket price, commercial genre, etc and establisjed himself as brand new 80 cr club star. That’s his aukaat. Talking about dhobi ghat? Well should i know how much dulha mil gaya collect? Only 4 cr life time? defeated by uday chopra? Shame shame. Aukaatless tiny star ke fan, stay in your aukaat. Aamir is megastar so dont worry about him. Even in worst case, non of aamir movies in future will do anything below 200 cr, while hakila’s bhojpuri rice smuggler, dear piku,the wing are still doubtful to cross 100 cr. Now get some sleep.
@ab:u dumbo if akki had given flop flop in action replay then he also had given hits during the same diwali in form of garam masala.do u remember garam masala kiske saath clash hui thi.sallu ki kyun ki ke saath.kyun ki was disaster.also aitraaz was semi hit during diwali against clash with veer zaara.also tees maar khan was semi hit(ask indicine) u fool.kuch bhi likh deta hai bina kuch knowledge ke.
@AB You just write unlimited non sense ..housefull 2,SIK,hey baby, Phir hera pheri, bhul bhulaiya etc etc all on non holiday and all superhit. Your jadoo has given only 1 or 2 superhit on non holiday. LOL
And @shivay Small actor fans should not talk about big stars.
Dhoni’s collection from Monday proves neeraj pandey movies do make good movies ;but doesn’t have repeat values.
While dhoni was a universal genre movie, still couldn’t sustain well.
baby s26 despite niche genre were successful movies..power of akshay kumar.
@shivaay gang
A superstar who always needs rohit and a big franchise to cross the 105 cr mark?.
And where was your superstar when Akshay was giving record breaking openings(Singh is king and Kambakkht Ishq) on non-holidays.
SIK was the second highest weekend grosser after Om Shanti Om and highest Week 1 grosser(more than a Diwali release). KI was huge as well(third highest opening after RNBDJ and Ghajini).
Rowdy Rathore(15 cr on post IPL)was the 3rd highest opener ever behind big holidays releases like Bodyguard and Agneepath(21 cr on Eid and Rday) and beating some big EDX releases like Dabanng, Ra.one, Don 2, etc. Your star is still struggling to cross 12 cr on non-holiday.
His only films that took a bumper/excellent openings are G3 and SR and that too on holidays and due to franchise value.
Don’t talk about Tees Maar Khan, we all remember how badly it crushed your star’s film Toonpur ka hero.
TMK day 1= 4 × lifetime of Toonpur ka hero?
@AB
Wasn’t housefull 2 a clean non-holiday release? And it even faced competition from the IPL season.
Akshay gave 2 of the highest grossers of the year after sultan with 2 new directors, this guy doesn’t need big name directors.
Mad in 4500 screens couldn’t beat airlift or his much under appreciated Rustom lol
fans of other actors are shouting like dogs. I want to tell them your stars can never be compared to akki sir because he is self made super star and he is the real meaning of inspiration from depict him non actor on beginning of his career to one of the best actors now while all the other star have good launching or winning awards akki don’t have any thing of these things and that is akki for us
@Sunny yes that applies to you. Small actors’ fans like you should not argue with big stars fans.
@AB
May I ask u what advantage does post ipl has for any film ???
Not even a single holiday…!!!
According to sacred theory of baba @indicine post ipl is third best period for releasing movies after eid and Xmas leaving DIWALI :p
Then why your jadoo does not choose post ipl for your films like bong bong , MJD ???
I bet they wouldn’t have even collected half of it if they were released during post ipl ( leave Mjd )
@AB
Jadooians should ask Papa roshan to release K4 during post ipl ???
Kyu thik hai
@awad first see the comments in 1st page of ur friends ,u will get 2 know why people r talking against akki in this article
@jolly lol going 2 2007 ,by ur logic Hrithik had given athg ,3 hgoty and 3-4 blockbusters in non- holiday .There was no trend of EDX before 2009-10.
As per SRK fans logic now Sushant is bigger than SRK !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol
Too much fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor kingu fans they are suffering too much nowadays still they wish for bad for others. Every bad wish of their in recent years is coming back to them. Hope they learn some lessons and start respecting Megastars !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Rew1, you hypocrite. Your speaking about Talaash. What about Dhobi gaat? 21cr film featuring Aamir Khan in 2011? Ra.ones second day was higher than that. Now your going to bring in the genre, right? Well, guess what. Fans genre is very different to Pk, sultan or all those other films you compare it with. So if fan is a huge failure, so is dhobi ghat, many times more so than fan.
@deadpool lol. bhai don’t put pressure in ur small brain ,there r a lot of summer holidays and familiy audiences love 2 watch movies during that time ,thats why movies like twmr ,yjhd did wonder @ box office wid a good content.
@deadpool there r lot of summer holidays @ that time and family audiences love 2 watch movies @ that time during vacations.
thats why movies wid good content does wonder during post ipl.
and they have no need to ask u when 2 release krrish 4 i kmow u r a great trade expert like krk and better if u not talk about k4 bcoz,
krrish series – 2 blockbusters
Akki whole career -1 solo blockbuster lol.
@Rocky yes..excellent reply . Don’t forget blue’s thundering opening,TMK 2nd highest opening and housefull’s 2nd highest weekend of all time just behind 3 idiots.
@hrithik-Who calls lallu a megastar? Who? Where? When? It’s better you start respecting world’s biggest moviestar!! SRK fans wished MS Dhoni good since Sushant is an SRKian, not a fan of Non-actor lallu.

@NN : Are you blind ? Haven’t read Indicine articles ?? Just read this paragraph it will five a fitting reply to blind haters like you :
It’s the current form and box office supremacy of the superstar that makes it impossible for anyone to even think of taking him on. Not just in the week of his release, but most banners try to avoid releasing their films a week before and a couple of weeks after the release of his films.
Did you get it or you need more stuff to prove you wrong ?? BTW, Salman does not need titles he is beyond it. The real King of Bollywood is only Salman even Google shows it. :p
@NN : Your statements proves how foolish you are. Srkians wished Sushant and MSD is success but the same Srkians cannot help their queen go beyond 90 crs with a movie which is a biggest tribute to Queen’s fans from Queen herself !!!!! Lol
