Bond used to be big but now its half of what Mission films do.

 

Expecting $1M or lower opening weekend.

Because I watch too many India film pay tribute to Bond,such as 3 idiots,I think 007 is pretty popular and famous in India

Lot of release dates getting locked in now. John Abraham's next patriotic movie is also coming on Jan 26

popularity and box office are different. Bond is popular in India, almost as much as Batman and Spider-man but box office wise not so much now. 

 

I know Bond but I won't be watching it in theater.

Craig's Bond films in India

 

Casino Royale - ₹42cr

Quantum of Solace - ₹45cr

Skyfall - ₹60cr

Spectre - ₹56cr
 

The last two are confirmed while first two are what officially reported so need to be taken with pinch of salt. Don't see why Skyfall would be less than Casino Royale adjusted for inflation and business growth.

 

NTTD in normal times would have tried ₹50cr, now may be ₹20cr.

Yes but seems hard to believe that Skyfall will have less admission than Casino Royale. Most likely inflated numbers.

Sooryavanshi has made a deal to get 100% screens for it's opening. 

 

Insane and means Eternals has to move it's date.  Also that Salman film with his brother in law.

SV won't get 100% screens. India media is clueless with actual news.

 

Anyhow, was not expecting Eternals to stick anyways. If they do, they will get good enough show in most multiplexes. I am expecting them to prepone it a week if other territories get preponed, or postpone a week.

No Time To Die ₹2.65cr ($360k) opening day. 

 

4 days weekend will be ₹12cr Approx.

 

Spectre was ₹8.39cr (₹11.2cr inc Previews) in 2015. In normal times, NTTD would have perhaps done ₹7cr.

There were no expectations but numbers are weaker than previous movies.

[charlie Jatinder]

Venom 2 in normal times would have opened around ₹15cr (Holiday in India on Oct 15). Now with MH and KE still closed, and bit on CoVID hesitancy in exhibition, expecting ₹7cr ($1M) opening day. 

Though MH will open in 2nd week, so full run can still be nice.

[grim22]

War was a genuine surprise in terms of quality. I expected a Bang Bang again but this was genuinely well thought out and the action was great.

[charlie Jatinder]

I absolutely despise it. You can't measure my disappointment of Sid directing SRK's next.

Captain America: The First Avenger had round about 80K admits. @ZeeSoh are you among them?

 

Only 80k Indians can claim to watch all MCU movies in theaters. Well actually less as some who watched TFA may have missed some other as well.

No, I was in Canada from about 2006 till 2013. Besides I only got into MCU around the time of Avengers. Before MCU I was a big potterhead. I dont recall seeing any of the phase 1 MCU movies in cinemas (except Avengers).

Oh God. Gadar 2 being announced. 

 

 

What will Sunny Paaji use to beat the Pakistanis in this one.
