Dangal Box Office Collections: Plunders records on Sunday

Aamir Khan’s Dangal has exceeded even the highest of expectations, as a sports-based film without the typical commercial ingredients or a popular leading lady (romantic angles can be a major factor at smaller centres), has recorded one of the biggest days in the history of Indian Cinema.

The abnormally high growth on Sunday and the fact that smaller centres too have shown growth, now means that the film has a very good chance of becoming the highest grosser of the year. The trend is extraordinary over the weekend, because the film opened well on Friday, peaked at multiplexes on Saturday (evening onwards) and then went up further on Sunday with the Christmas holiday giving the film an additional boost of around 5%.

The credit for both the content of Dangal and the kind of numbers that the film has put up at the box office over the weekend – should go almost entirely to Aamir Khan. He has seen it through, right from the scripting stages and casting stages to eventually the record-breaking box office numbers.

Monday and the next couple of days could well decide where the film is heading. If the film falls below the 20 crore mark on Monday, then a 300 crore plus total would be difficult to achieve. If it manages to hold in the range of 22-24 crore, then the 300 crore mark is almost a certainty.

Ticket prices at multiplex chains are down from the weekend levels today, this will have an impact on collections even though the occupancy in the morning continued to remain high – with some places close to Friday levels.

Our LBO prediction has been delayed by a day, because we simply couldn’t pick the trend or analyse it the way we wanted to do it. The picture is more clearer now, so the final prediction will be up in about an hour from now. Do stay tuned for that.

  • Dangal is biggest highest day ever not hny and if hny (44cr) is highest that means krrish 3 is also 244 cr
    Krrish3(244cr)>CE(227cr)
    Hrithik>srk
    What an irony

  • indicine all your predictions gone wrong for Dangal…you completely misfire about Dangal box office predictions ,even sunday predictions were 37-38 cr.from your side

  • @indicine Is HNY Collection is fake? Dangal has screen, occupancy and prices all high but also didn’t collected more tgan HNY opening.

  • Aamir khan is the biggest crowd puller of Indian cinema. Many disagree but they will get to know when Thugs of Hindustan release on national holiday.

  • Wow simply awesome

    Go aamir sir all the real SALMAN fans are with you

    Watched it yesterday it’s a great movie but certainly not the greatest movie of the decade

  • My prediction was 106 crores too for the weekend.
    Watched Dangal : trust me this film is full of emotions. The climax is so emotional and huge that it will give a massive boost to the lifetime collections of Dangal . I loved the climax very much.
    Before having watched Dangal I thought it will beat only sultan but afterhaving watched Dangal, it can beat Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Pk’s record too …. absolutely brilliant film.
    When the film is brilliant, then the records are bound to be broken .
    The content is very very strong.

  • Dangal’s Sunday vs HNY’s 1st day:

    Screen count:
    Dangal>>>>> HNY

    Ticket Price:
    Dangal>>>>> HNY

    Occupancy:
    Dangal>>>>>> HNY

    Still, HNY’s 1st collections are much more than Dangal’s Sunday collections. @indicine, can you explain please????

  • I told everyone that Dangal is going to be the biggest hit of 2016 and probably the biggest hit of all time ..!!!!!
    Because the content is very very very strong …..
    Congratulations Aamir and Aamir khan fans !!

  • my prediction is going to be successful

    My predictions for some of THE BIGGEST FILMS OF 2016 ;
    First commented on March 2016

    I just keep older one in brackets if there’s a change in my prediction n reasons will follow in my comments on Indicine pages.

    Fan .. 85 Cr?Crap/Bad Film
    Excellent .. 138 Cr
    Mixed .. 97 Cr
    ………………………………………………..

    HF3 .. 108 Cr?Average Comedy Film
    Excellent .. 150 Cr
    Mixed .. 105 Cr
    ………………………………………………..

    Sultan .. 301 Cr?Good Film
    Excellent .. 307 Cr
    Mixed .. 215 Cr

    Due to Huge Eid period having three big days i.e Eid & Jagarnath Puja, Eid & Baasi Eid. With perfect 5 days long weekend, Sultan puts up 60% of lifetime collection which is similar story of many films that gets perfect long weekend like Sultan. I don’t get surprised by Sultan crosses 300 Cr because I know the EDX POWER, NOT KHANS? better than anyone else. Follow the sign (?) below for more details.
    ………………………………………………..

    MD° .. 60 Cr?Ignored Film
    Excellent .. 310 Cr
    Mixed .. 217 Cr

    All medias & all sites were muted on MOHENJO DARO and same did by Industry. Mute Medias &  mute sites, mute Industry altogether created ignorant environment for MD & they succeed in it because due to that MD opened lower than Rustom. MD was a film that could easily cross 217 Cr but it’s a Rustom team’s Dirty game (all media & all sites get muted on any film in clash called Dirty Game) that changed whole MD standings.
    You (Many) will troll me for this predictions & I will troll you for DIRTY GAME of RUSTOM.
    ………………………………………………..

    Rustom° .. 127 Cr?Paid Good Film
    Excellent .. 107 Cr
    Mixed .. 75 Cr

    Reverse to MOHENJO DARO, all media & all sites were just opened up/reported only about Rustom e.g Rustom will be AK’s 3rd 100Cr film…. bla bla bla & plus Industry supports. Over the top vocal for Rustom by all medias & all sites (shows they get paid from Rustom team) and whole Industry supports altogether made Rustom big. Clashing with Huge film as huge as MOHENJO DARO made Rustom even bigger than it was. Thanks to Dirty game, MOHENJO DARO & Industry supports, A film that couldn’t earn even 75 Cr even with solo release that film earned 127Cr with clash. So, Rustom is paid success film, paid reviewed n Good Film.
    ………………………………………………..

    Shivaay° .. 100 Cr?Good Action Film
    Excellent .. 180 Cr
    Mixed .. 126 Cr

    Since Diwali falls on sunday means its 3 Days weekend falls on Darkest Pre-Diwali periods like KRRISH 3 which is disastrous sign for any film even in solo. Due to Darkest Pre Diwali Periods, Clash & Dirty game against it from ADHM team side, Its first 3 days are more in danger. Post Diwali i.e Monday will be huge in clash if somehow it manages 45 Cr+ in first 3 days.
    ………………………………………………..

    ADHM° .. 110 Cr?Paid Good Film
    Excellent .. 120 Cr
    Mixed .. 84 Cr

    Like Rustom, even if ADHM crosses 50 Cr all credit will go to Dirty game of film team. Creating negativities for one film from opponent film through paying media/taking supports called Dirty Game. In this way,  Media talks/reports about just one film & completely ignores other film e.g Media n industry are mums on Shivaay like MD & Media & Industry are open up/saying/reporting continously about ADHM like Rustom. Pre Diwali will affect ADHM more than Shivaay even if ADHM gets paid reviews from paid medias like 3* n above.
    ………………………………………………..

    Dear Zindagi .. 65 Cr?Average Film
    Excellent .. 93 Cr
    Mixed .. 65 Cr
    ………………………………………………..

    Dangal
    Excellent .. 355 (243)Cr
    Mixed .. 248 (170)Cr

    Due to Winder holidays periods having penalties of big holidays n big days too like Pre-Xmas market on 24, Xmas on 25, Good bye Year on 31, New Year on 1 which always start from 24 Dec & end to first week of January. Follow the sign (?) below for more details.
    ………………………………………………..

    ?FACT?There is no need to be GOOD FILM to cross 200 Cr or 300 Cr when a Film is releasing on EDX holidays because EDX is like 7 Khoon Maaf. To cross margin like 500 Cr, needs something extraordinary even on EDX holidays (Fact validation:- all films release during 2014-2017).
    .
    .
    ? My predictions for some of THE BIGGEST FILMS OF 2016 are based on all the factors that a film is releasing with like Solo, Non holidays, Non EDX Holidays, EDX holidays & Big Clashes=(°).

    NOTES ;
    My predictions in clash means healthy clash like BB! Vs HAIDER, not One Side Dirty Game just like Rustom did against MOHENJO DARO.

  • More 7 days in the hands of Dangal…The film will be high till Jan 1, but after that big drops are certain.

    In these 7 days even if Dangal collects 20cr per day, that makes 140cr. Plus present collections take you to 250crs. More 50crs left to achieve…

    I repeat 300crs won’t be a cakewalk.

  • @indicine:

    HNY collected 45cr nett 2.3 years ago with 25% lower ticket price & 15% lesser screens compared to Dangal. Dangal was getting houseful shows in most of the cinemas as per your tweets & articles (much better than hny opening day). Therefore, Dangal should have collected over 60cr nett on Sunday. What do you say???
