I wonder how big next Aamir's movie will be in China (Thugs of hindustan)...although they will remove/change hindustan for China release.

Fudging rumors is there for all the big movies in India. 

 

"Dangal box office collections: Something wrong? Cinemas hardly full, yet Aamir Khan film’s earnings skyrocketing!"

and some more such articles.

 

As mentioned these kind of articles/rumors are there for all big movie collections. But many such articles are just of attention seeking as they don't have even connection with trade analysts.

If you check BOI and Taran (biggest trade analyst in india) you can see they are more/less in same range for most movies (may be 10-15crrs difference)...Except Rakesh Roshan's movies fudge (which are outrageous) while others hardly matters.

Rajnikant movies fudge is even more outrageous than rakesh roshan.

Don't know why they do it when it becomes clear they are fudging.

As for bahubali, only south collection can be fudged and I don't know why how much.

Considering Dangal will make 60-70% more than Dog depending on extension, its no contest.

 

Dangal saturday is already at 53.5m. 100m should not be a problem at all. It will coast past it.

100%

I think 230 was the midpoint last sat.

105m cometh

Just passed GotG2 

 

PR was down 99% yesterday WoW. No mercy. Will finish under 30m/ $4.3m. 1.2x OW

Yes have heard about Rajni's movies fudge but can't comment as BOI or Taran don't report those numbers. But with Robot 2 this might change which is expected to be another huge blockbuster.

 

Looks like many bollywood stars specially the khans are not very happy for Baahubali. As considered to be a regional movie have broken all kind of records in hindi belt and have relegated them back to no.2, 3 and 4 in rankings.

I will like some proof of unhappy khans for my curiosity.?

2.0 can do more than 200 in hindi belt. Can become 2nd highest grosser pan india.

Isn't it quite obvious? Normally they will tweet and praise many shitty tom, dick and harry movies. Many times bollywood stars will go orgasmic even for mediocre movies but have mostly remain silent on Baahubali.

 

Baahubali however actually shows the true potential in Indian market. It will gross north of $200m in all languages combined within India. A proper epic movie which includes both north and south stars could reach its full potential to become the first Indian movie to gross $300m within India.

 

Rajamouli and Aamir khan collaborating rumors if turns out true then that could be the movie (Mahabharata ).

This conversation seems more suited to a different forum. Very excited to welcome new Indian friends into the China forum but please try to stay on topic.

Mermaid and F7 and Monday/Sunday release and so 3rd saturday was farther in its run. So that gives advantages to leggy runs like Zoo/Dangal which had a friday release.

maoyan is not so accurate lately on realtime tracking due to system upgrading

I guess today jumps were unusually high... So tomorrow drops should be a bit steep as well....

 

How much will Dangal make? 60m? 70m?

So 100M dead for Guardians? It's looking at over 670M before POTC opens.
