100 crore movies in 2012 – Prediction

4 movies crossed the 100 crore mark in 2011 – Ready, Bodyguard, Singham, Ra One – and Don 2 is likely to cross the magical number this week.

There are several biggies lined up for release in 2012. But how many will cross 100 crores at the Indian box-office? Here’s our prediction..

  • Agneepath – Starring Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Sanjay Dutt and Katrina Kaif in a special item number, Agneepath should be the first film to cross 100 crores in 2012. The hype is HUGE.
  • Talaash – First Aamir Khan film after the biggest blockbuster in Bollywood history – 3 Idiots! Need we say more?
  • Rowdy Rathore – The fact that action films are favorites for box-office gold, should work in Rowdy Rathore’s favour. The film should provide the much needed boost to Akshay Kumar’s career, which has been going down-hill with every release since 2010’s Housefull.
  • Ek Tha Tiger – The average of his last three films, at the Indian box-office, is approximately 140 crores! Plus Ek Tha Tiger is releasing during EID. Should cross 100 crores in Week 1.
  • Bol Bachchan – This could go either way – but given Ajay Devgan and director Rohit Shetty’s track record together (Golmaal series, Singham), Bol Bachchan could go on to be one of 2012’s biggest hits!
  • Dabangg 2 – Three factors why this should easily cross 100 crores – Christmas release, sequel to one of 2010’s most loved films and Salman Khan!
  • Yash Chopra film starring Shahrukh Khan – A legendary director and one of Bollywood’s biggest superstars – Yash Chopra and SRK come together for yet another romantic film. Fresh starcast with SRK paired with Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma. Should be treat and not to mention, a box-office monster!

  • ready , bodyguard and ra.one are not eligible to cross 100 cr mark. they did it only because of star power and nothing else…. salman’s acting was worstest of his career in ready…. desy boyz was a much much better comedy film. the only movies dat worked and accepted in all way were SINGHAM and DON2.
    3-4 yr back salman was giving back to back flops…. now akshay is in that bad phase…. if housefull2 works he will gain momentum and 2012 belongs to him . god bless AKSHAY …..

  • so king of 100 cr
    is srk because he has 11 film and don 2 will be tewelfth
    salman 6 movies
    hrithik and akshy 3 movies each
    amir 2 in exception to tare zameen par because it s exempt of tax
    vidya khan 1
    ajay 2 golmal /singham
    ranbir 2
    SIF ALI KHAN 2

  • @Amit agreed !! that director is more important than actor except in case of Aamir Khan For eg : Ashutosh gowariker’s LAGAAN is his best Work same about Farhan’s DCH and Rakeysh mehra’s Rang de Basanti ! Y all their Best Works ve Came out With Aamir khan ??

  • Agneepath will create a new history! The hype relating to the movie is all time high, and the business will do according to the hype. Only one thing can stop this movie is the content of the movie. If it has even an average content, the movie will breaking records. However, nothing can stop it doing business at the first weekend for sure which I predict to be earning 18 crore par day in first weekend. So how come it will be a flop?? not possible. Even if the budget of the movie was close to Ra.One, it would have been a hit but the budget is not that huge, but yet it’s a bigger release than Ra.One, so who can stop this movie firing all over??

  • I geniunely think Akshay Kumar could be back with a bang next year.

    OUATIM 2 should be a good film, something Akshay has not had in the last few years, and coupled with Ekta Kapoor’s promotion should do well.
    My Prediction: 65cr +

    Rowdy Rathore has generated a good hype, and with action being the flavour of the season this could well be a success for Akshay. Also the movie carries far more mass appeal than OUATIM, if it goes down well with masses this could be a return to form for Khiladi Kumar
    My Prediction: 85cr +

    Housefull 2 I am not expecting much from. This brand of cinema has never appealed to me much, but it does to some and will probably do very well. However, the Akshay Kumar brand of mindless comedies does not sell as well as it once did (note: Thank You) Not my kind of film but will probably do very well
    My Prediction: 75cr +

    Joker 3D is a worry, I am not too convinced it will open well and Shrish Kunder is at the helm, his last script Tees Maar Khan was shamefully bad. I think this could well be a downer and big flow
    My Prediction: under 50cr

    Khiladi 786 could go either way, alot depends on whether it releases on Diwali and alongside SRK’s next. If it does, it could well go the Action Replay way, however if it manages to stay clear it should do well in its opening weekend, particularly at mass centres, however given its a script written by Himesh Reshammiya’s, chances of sustaining are close to zilch.
    My Prediction: 60cr+

    So to summarise, I reckon OUATIM 2 will be Akshay’s best film, Rowdy Rathore his biggest hit, and Joker 3D a disaster. Could potentially be a superb year for Akshay, with 3 hits, 1 average grosser, and one unfortunate flop.

  • haters never believe truth though it s evident more than sun in a sunny day they still object
    because of spite hatred jealousy unjustifably
    so bark dogs all life long coz srk is always looking forward no time to wink back

  • talaash,ek tha tiger,dabangg 2,rowdy rathode,srk-chopra dis r superhits…nd talaash wil b d best movie..nd talaash/dabangg 2 will b the biggest grosser of d year…

  • frnds we r forgetting der is also KRISH 3……it has da chance to cross rs.200 crores
    2012 hottest jodi is priyanka chopra and hrithik roshan…..pc we luv u…….

  • Nice discussion so faar..all 3 khaans will score a century with every next film..hirithic and one of akshay film in2012 will cross 100 crores…and ajay is also set to score a century…my predictions for 2012 are 8 films crossing century…2 salaman,1 for aamir shahrukh hirithic ajay and akshay..plus one century may be for saif

  • movies releasing in 2012 are mainly action thrillers, suspense and comedies and blah, blah, blah….. but there is only one hardcore romantic movie in 2012, yrf and srk which is deadly combination, don’t be surprised if there is another ddlj in the making. SRK RULZ……….
