Nope. I don't watch such films. It was dud from trailer itself.

[THUNDER BIRD]

I thought Bollywood minus SRK is number one in terms of cost cutting and producing trash VFX in name of before seen visuals, but Saaho has given competition to Bollywood minus SRK in this department. @Charlie Jatinder

VFX - Yes, horrible looking.

 

Movie - Not as bad as reviews are saying, but still pretty bad, not on the level of Race 3, but still very poor movie.

[The Dark Rock]

The reviews are really horrible. On the levels of  Thugs, Ra.One, Race3 etc.

 

Let's see if it will have average drop or collapse.

[Legion Again]

Sometimes it feels like the correlation between huge opening and awful reception is oddly high for Indian local films. With some notable exceptions, of course 😛

I see some reports with ₹105-110 gross OD. Are they overestimated or just publicity tricks?

Naa, that's just one measure of boxoffice calculation. 

 

85cr is actual gross.

All India Top Twenty Opening Days - Saaho 2nd

 

 

Saaho recorded the second highest collections of all time behind Bahubali - The Conclusion as it picked up around 87 crore nett apprx on day one across India. The film did best In Nizam / Andhra with 49 crore nett (including Marathwada and Hindi prints) while Hindi circuits contributed 22.25 crore nett without Marathawada and Hindi in South)  and  Karntaka / Mysore was 10 crore nett. Tamil Nadu and Kerala did not perform with 3 crore nett and 1 crore nett respectively. Then there is around 1.75 crore apprx total of regional versions in Hindi circuits for an all India total of 87 crore nett.  The GROSS collections will be around 99-100 crore. 

 

 

Below are the top twenty opening days in India in terms of NETT collections and there are a few Telugu films getting into the top twenty due to lower taxing in the past. The GROSS top twenty will probably see more Hindi films and that will be updated later. Irrespective of this there is just one Hindi film in the top five and in time Hindi films could struggle to get into the top ten. In the 90's you may have had a couple of non Hindi films in top twenty. In the 70's there would be no non Hindi film in the top fifty and now we are in approaching the 20's and it can be seen how that trend has gone in the last fifty years. 

 

 

 

 

1. Bahubali 2 - The Conclusion (2017) - 121.72 crore

BOI should stop reporting South films and embarass themselves.

 

@oMeriMombatti when I am here, you don't need BOI.

Should i bother watching it in the theatre? The trailers looked fine vfx and action wise...or wait till it hits television. I watched both Bahubali 1&2, 2.0 on TV. Liked B1&2, but hated 2.0.

[Legion Again]

I saw some disagreement on reddit about how big it would open after the OD. Some guy called "itsjat32" was saying a 55-60cr Saturday, guess that worked out pretty well
