Very surprised and happy with Happy Medium’s opening. It was a good movie with one of the best Indian actors of our times. I hope it has good legs and its sitting at a 9.1 rating.
It looks like another movie that will gross more in China than it did in India
It wld do for sure.I think it wld do more than 3 times in China than what it did in India.

too early to tell but that's certainly a realistic range.
Indian films now are performaning the best among non-English imports.
If non-Aamir Indian movies are performing at such a level then Aamir's next can be very huge i guess.

Bollywood movies have started to catch attention in China thanks to Dangal/Aamir. Hindi medium opening is too good considering it doesn't have big stars/names.
Yes very surprised to see such nos. for HM.I think Aamir and Dangal has created huge visibility for Indian movies in China.Can't imagine the opening nos. for Aamir's next 'Thugs of Hindostan'.I m hearing it may release this year only in China probably a parallel release.Is 50-60M$ OW possible for Thugs?

The avatar of Rey Random/Daisy Ridley made the journalist think Gavin is a she?
LOLLL.The same happens on Twitter.Gavin recieved a lot of proposals and love letters as well.In one earlier article Gavin was posted as female as well.

Wow. That means that most of sources have been wrong for a long time:
http://greenash.net.au/thoughts/2011/07/world-domination-by-box-office-cinema-admissions/
Why do you think there is a so big gap between sources? The general feeling outside India is that they usually go to see movies and if the 0.98 billion data is true, it means less than 1 ticket per person and year. And why they would produce over 1,500 films per year with a so low ratio of moviegoers? Something does not fit... 980 million admissions does not seem an impressive data taking into account the size of the country, production and the Bollywood fame.
Just questioning, of course. I am not saying that the 0.98b data is wrong. It is just that it seems a bit strange.
Hardly 150 of those 1500 get a decent to good release even in these hardly 20 or so wld be those which taste success.So all this 1500 or whatever fig. is bullshit.Indian Cinema is not only Bollywood(Hindi Cinema) as there are several regional industries as well mainly Telugu and Tamil which both combined wld be bigger than Bollywood itself.North-South barrier is the biggest hurdle for achieving the max. BO potential within India. Baahubali 2 broke that divide and had 102 million admissions.Also movies are hardly watched by 10-15% of total population in India in theatres.Movie watching is not a priority in India as is shown to the outside world.Piracy is very rampant which is also a factor.All this Bollywood fame is bullshit as in South they prefer their regional movies(Telugu.Tamil,Kannada and Malayalam) over BW anyday.Plus I read ticket admissions have reduced considerably in last decade or so may be upto 50% due to advent of multiplexes with much higher ticket price which also keep General public a bit more away from theatres. So it is very much possible that this 2 Billion admissions fig. is a decade old fig.as each year there is a considerable drop.2017 might be an exception to this due to Baahubali 2.I hope i have put across good enough points.

Potus was few days back giving data for annual tickets sold countrywise.
India sold 0.98 Billion(98 cr) Tickets in 2017.I told u it is not 2 billions or so which few unreliable sites were claiming.

Can someone give me a rough idea of how much Dangal and Secret Superstar might have done in Hindi(with Mandarin subtitles) and how much in dubbed Mandarin version?
Rough % range of both versions.

$15-20m
Don't you think it's too high since a non-Aamir Indian movie hasn't even crossed 2M$ in mainland?

I dont think it will do well. No matter how good a movie it may be but it doesnt have Aamir Khan in it. Plus it is coming only 2 weeks after the super blockbusters which will still be going strong so yeah i wouldnt expect too mich from it
Can you give a range of how much it can do in China.I don't think there is any visibility for non-Aamir Indian movies in China.
2-5M$
6-10M$
11-20M$

Bajrangi Bhaijaan is releasing on 2nd Mar.Can anyone tell how much it can do in China?
Advance seems to be very weak.Can it capitilize a little bit on Dangal and Secret Superstar's success?

China now has 50k screen, US at 40k.
CNY sells out shows from 6am to midnight. Its like an SW OD for all movies. Domestic doesnt have a day in the year like this. Our holidays boost BO but xmas nys and 4th of july are not like this.
Over all ticket prices are 40% cheaper than donestic and box office was 35% in revenue last year so the number of tickets sold has surpassed domestic but india leads the world with 2b annual tickets sold.
Donestic $11b BO 1.1b tix $10 average
China $7.7b BO 1.4b tix $5.20 average
India $2b BO 2.2b tix $1.10 average
India has more screens, number unknown due to 1000s of garage sized cinimas setup in villages through out the country.
I am from India.Don't go by wiki.Screens in India wld be close to 10k. 2.2b admissions is more than impossible.Even the biggest Blockbusters nowadays have less than 40 million admissions in India. Baahubali2(105 million) was an exception as it cut the North-South barrier.Even Dangal had around 39.5million admissions and apart from Dangal and Sultan(32.5million) no other movie in 2016 even hit 15 million admissions.I think 1.1-1.2 billion annual admissions likely for India.

How is the WOM of Bonnie bear?
I think for
MH2-Average
DC2-Great
Operation Red sea-Extraordinary
Monkey King-Bad
-
This is totally insane.500M$ weekend likely.Ticket price are much cheaper in China compared to US.Otherwise admissions are already at much higher level.Has China overtaken US now as the biggest movie market?
-
Gavin how much it can do in next weekend?
I think 6-7M$ probably.
105-107M$ should be the lifetime now for Secret Superstar.
-
Secret Superstar is heading for a Lifetime around 105M$.
Second 100M$ grosser for Aamir Khan in China.

Ferdinand going to bump today. looks like it could be a half-sized Coco.
Maze 3 is the only large opener next week. Fer will keep a lot of shows. If it holds better than average tomorrow(60-70%) and flat or up on Tuesday it'll try for 640m/$100m
Don't think it wld go that high as YF and SS are having a great wom too in addition to the Maze runner opening next week.
-
Secret Superstar it seems is having a great wom as total today wld be close to 9.75M$ but Young Forever is hurting it to do much more.In return YF is also getting hurt by tremendous wom of SS.
25-26M$ weekend and 75M$ LT for Secret Superstar i guess.
-
I know their prediction changes regularly.But still asking has Aamir Khan gained a solid foothold in China after Dangal?
-
How much do u think Gavin it can do?
-
Maoyan is predicting huge for Secret Superstar.Around 84-85M$.
Opening day prediction is 7M$.
