RRR shatters all-time OD record in India!!!

[CoolK]

SS Rajamouli has done it AGAIN!! Even though RRR doesnt live up to Baahubali standards,,,its still great..

with no competition in sight for next 2 weeks, 1000c+ gross in full run seems likely..

 

[CoolK]

[charlie Jatinder]

₹137cr Approx opening day. All Time Record.

Rajamouli is the James Cameron of Bollywood

Great opening. Will be interesting to see if it can hang on in North India where the response seems less stellar than Bahubali or Pushpa.

The main diff has come in one state Telangana where BB2 didn't get hike permission was released with ₹90 ATP. RRR ATP is around ₹275 there. 

BB2 did ₹10.4cr. RRR ₹28cr.

 

Other places had normal inflation over 5 years.

@charlie Jatinder What exactly is wrong with Andhra? You can find dozen sources and almost all have different gross values.  I asked few people and they all had different shares related to it.  

 

AP/TS is varying between 75 Cr. to 121 Cr. Even, Official source Pen says - it's 101 Cr in AP + Nizam and 223 Cr. total in India. Indian fans fight in South is just over the top. I can never get real numbers.

in AP/TS, we've tracking in shares not gross....so gross numbers are mostly estimated and vary from source to source.

2 days share is around 100cr

APTS has one of the best tracking in India but the problem is the reporting figures are SHARE and GROSS numbers are very rare but GROSS estimation from SHARE isn't too hard though, so its no big deal.

 

You will have similar SHARE numbers by everyone, though recently some report SHARE including GST, some report as it used to be pure SHARE. I follow the latter.

 

The difference in GROSS come because the SHARE numbers include Hires. First off what is Hires?

 

Most cinemas follows the normal operation, like a film do say ₹100,000 there, they will pay the agreed share to the distributor say 60% i.e. ₹60,000. In case of Hire, distributor take a fixed amount from the exhibitor and whatever film make is of exhibitor. Now these hire numbers aren't for one day but full run. In the above case, the distributor will get something like ₹300,000 from the cinema for playing the movie.

e.g. a movie plays at 100 cinemas and for ease of calculation, say collect 1 lakh in each cinema for total 1cr gross. The gross is for sake of simplification say 50% of collection. Say 10 cinemas of these play at HIRE and each cinema HIRE is ₹2 lakh. 

 

Now the SHARE that will be reported will be ₹45 lakhs + ₹20 lakh HIRE = ₹65 lakh.

 

What my system is to take ₹45 lakh SHARE & guessing how much HIRE would have been recovered in 1st day depending on how film performed in other cinemas of the region. I will take 45 lakh + say 25% of HIRE = ₹50 lakh and based on that estimate ₹100 lakh GROSS taking 50% ratio.

 

What most other folks do is take that ₹65 lakh and estimate ~₹130 lakh GROSS.

 

On day two, say the collection are 80%

 

My system will again give ₹40 lakhs + recovery from hires = ₹44 lakh, estimating ₹88 lakh GROSS using 50%.

 

The other folks will just take ₹40 lakhs SHARE and estimate ₹80 lakhs.

 

A real movie example is this one old movie report 

 

The collection from normal cinemas is ₹63,73,910 and share is ₹54.76 lakhs, with another ₹45 lakhs for Hires making it ₹1cr reported share. The actual gross in the territory will be ₹75 lakhs approx including day 1 gross from these hired cinemas, but what some people do is take ₹1cr share and estimate gross at ₹1.3cr or so.

I understood that. Thanks for explaining like that. 

 

Also, then as the GROSS of movie is, "total of what each viewers paid to watch the movie via ticket prices" regardless of who got that money - Government, Distributor, Mafia, or Politician? Theatres should know exactly what Amount of money they had earned in a day from movie tickets and that should be GROSS amount?

 

Why do they complicate this...
