Indian Box Office Thread | Jawan overtakes Pathaan, becomes highest grossing Indian movie of 2023

If Endgame & Infinity War growth are ignored, Hollywood's growth is really overrated.

 

Bollywood in 2007 opening record was ₹8.5cr in 2015 ₹50cr & in 2019 ₹60cr. 

 

Hollywood in 2007 official number are ₹6.65cr, ₹16.73cr in 2015 while non-Avengers is still ₹16.73cr only.

₹25cr: Bodyguard (2011)
₹30-40cr: Ek Tha Tiger (2012)

It's hard to explain just how big Baby's Day Out and Stuart Little were in India. They were everywhere and everyone went to watch them.

 

Another similar example is probably Dunston Checks In. My parents actually took me to the theater for Dunston Checks In and Baby's Day Out. That alone should show how big they were.

The Producers’ Guild of India on 25th May issued a set of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the resumption of shootings in Maharashtra. This followed the virtual meeting which industry people had with Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray to discuss when permission to resume the work of film and television shootings would be granted in the state.

 

The guidelines mentioned in the Guild’s document are to be followed after the Chief Minister’s office grants permission to resume shooting. The 37-page document is titled ‘Back to action… cut to staying safe’. It lists down steps and measures to be taken to fight the coronavirus. The steps include observing hygiene, daily sanitisation of sets, presence of anti-COVID boys at shootings to ensure that guidelines are being observed on the sets, artistes’ staff to be not allowed on set unless there’s an emergency, etc.

Avengers: Endgame (Hindi) 8,305,000 TVTs in its WTP on Star Gold. English version 226,000 TVTs. That's second highest for a Hollywood film behind The Jungle Book.

 

However I don't believe TV Ratings at all in India.

Dangal is the biggest overseas grosser of all time in the history of Bollywood and certainly the most known film in the box office community worldwide thanks to its China box office run which is one of the greatest for a small film. There isn't pure clarity on the numbers among people, so here's an effort for that.

Following is the release wise breakdown of the film's business in major box office markets where the film played.

Release Group	Market	Gross	Gross in ₹
Original Release		$30,700,000	₹207,22,50,000
2017 Re-release	Taiwan	$5,543,000	₹35,47,52,000
2017 Re-release	China	$174,679,000	₹1125,68,38,000
2017 Re-release	Turkey	$454,000	₹2,90,56,000
2017 Re-release	Hong Kong	$3,442,000	₹22,02,88,000
2018 Re-release	Japan	$678,000	₹4,40,70,000
2018 Re-release	South Korea	$842,000	₹5,59,93,000

I see your first post as October 31

 

No idea if you had a lot of posts prior to that one. One explanation could be that your posts prior to this one were in threads created by some users who were mistakenly marked as Spam during a moderation error which happened recently. The posts in threads marked as spam disappeared automatically along with the threads.

I tried to follow the quote Charlie quoted my reaction to from (did I just f... up the grammar?) to find out why I got quoted from a post from October 2018

 

I think it was a thread about an Indian movie with famous actors, maybe the last one with a now dead actress under maybe alcohol influence, like happening during taking a bath? It was a time back, like nearly 2 years or so, I quoted one of the very early posts of him into this thread, thinking he is too new to know about this thread or so. In the hope this helps...

 

Was definitely bevor October 31 in 2018

The critic reviews are downright awful. Unlike Dhoom 3, this won't have the advantage of 2 weeks of holidays. Should be a big weekend and then fall off a cliff.

yeah. i think the word of mouth initially doesn't make much difference for huge films with no competition. race3 also stayed steady over first 3 days in low-mid 30cr range.

 

if thugs does 115 or less over 4-days i think 165-175 is realistic.

 

the reviews are bad for sure. some reviews aggregated by bollyarena:

• Positive: 0
• Neutral: 3
• Negative: 6
• Avg Rating: 1.93/5
