Highest Opening of 2015: All Is Well at No 27

All Is Well has opened to a very poor response at the box office. The Abhishek Bachchan starrer is below a female-centric violent film like NH10 and other disastrous films like Shamitabh, Detective Byomkesh Bakshi and Mr X.

The opening is better than other Abhishek Bachchan films like ‘Khelein Hum Jeen Jaan Se’ (1 cr) and Game (1.8 cr), but worse than some of his other solo films like Raavan (6 cr), Delhi 6 (4.75 cr) and Guru (3.5 cr).

Abhishek films rely on content to do well at the box office, but given the fact that his solo films open so poorly, even some of his best films like Guru (Hit) and Dostana (Above Average), just about end up recovering costs.

Meanwhile, the Top 5 is dominated by Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar. While Salman is in a different league altogether, Akshay has given two 10 crore plus opening this year, even though all his films have been about 15-20% below trade expectations.

  • The numbers are not very poor when you consider that Srk’s film Yeh lamhe hai judaai ke did 40 lacs lifetime in 2004.

  • I am sure DILWALE will be in the top 5 if not top 3 in this list. BAJIRAO clash is giving nightmares. i see ranveer chasing my KING in MY dreams, with a flexible sword in his hands. His name is Runveer that doesnt mean he should always run.
    Wish MY KING makes a film like Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

  • RAVAAN had 2 versions 1 in south starring VIKRAM..
    another in hindi starring useless abhishek…
    VIKRAM ALSO PLAYED VILLAIN IN HINDI VERSION…
    BOTH SHOOT SIMULTANIOUSLY…..
    1 in south got great success n critic reviewz…
    othr in hindi was disaster….
    so wats the point…
    abhishek can ruin any film with his pathetic performance…

  • My Predictions ..means Asli predictions ..!

    All iz well ?15-20cr |Flop
    Manjhi ? 10 -15 | Average
    Phantom ? 40-50 cr |Flop
    Welcome back ? 90- 100 cr| Above average/HIT
    Hero ? 40-50 cr| Above average\HIT
    Katti ßatti ?50- 60 crs| Above average\HIT
    Singh Iz ßling ? 125| Superhit
    Shandaar ? 80-90 crs|HIT ..! Datx it
    Ekdum jhaKkAssss

  • Salman Khan = 27.25 only
    Akshay Kumar = 15.20 +13.05 + 9.03 = 37.28!! (If you add minimum 15 crore opening from SIB) then the total would be 52.28 crore!!
    By this logic, if Akshay does 1 movie per year, then the opening would be above 50 crore!!
    Now look at the genere
    Baby = thriller
    Gabbar is Back = Crime action
    Brothes = Action drama
    Singh is Bling = Action Comedy
    Akki is the King of Bollywood

  • Brothers had a huge fall in business on day eight with collections in the 1.25-1.50 crore nett range. The drop is 90% from its first day. This huge drop has come even though the new releases were weak and in reality a film a big like Brothers should be dominating the box office this week also. The film should grow over the weekend but not like successful films and the weekend may come out to be around 5 crore nett, if its lucky it may come out a bit higher but the fact is its not going to do even a 10 crore nett second week which is unthinkable for a big film. Brothers has no chance to do the lifetime business of Gabbar Is Back and even the figures of Baby look out of reach. So despite being Akshay Kumar’s biggest film of the year it will probably turn out to be his lowest grosser as compared to the two previous films.

  • Singh is Bling should also join the top 5 list as the target is not that huge..Prem Ratan Dhan Payo,Tamasha and Dilwale will make it to the top 5 opening days by the end of this year

  • Our Sarookh movies opening will be the same like All Is Well without heavy promotions +kajol+ rohit shetty +Varun Dhawan shame shame sarookh fans

  • Sarookh has not even entered in 250 cr yet and Fans are dreaming of 400 cr
    C’mon guys..Expect acc to stardom He has very little chance of entering in 300 cr club even 2018 too much fun

  • @indicine how ABCD2 is excelent and Tanu Weds Manu Rreturn is very good ?TWMR is best movie and collection is also very good in compare to ABCD2.

  • I think Abhishek puts in more dedication when he appears with bigger star casts. Apart from Guru n Ravan he is so lazy on d screen! Yuva should be one of his stand out performance though he wasn’t d lead actor. Bol Bachan he was so good I think he was nominated or won d a filmfare I guess. Hny I think he stole d show and in dhoom3 he was cool. Between appearing on screen wit d likes of an aamir a shah or an ajay means you have to talk impress them 1st even before d director!!
    So in summary abhishek brings out d best in him with bigger actors but that’s not boosting his star power at all unlike his peers like hritik john Shahid who can carry a movie on their shoulders. Verdict….. disappointing career!!

  • @indicine the budget of hamari adhuri kahani was around 35 cr and it earned around 38 cr but why it declared as a flop please respond as its verdict must be average even koimoi delared it plus/above average

  • It will be a bigger hit than my Dhobighat!

    I need good supporting casts, directors, big banners and X’mas to make my films successful.
    Without them, I have Mangal Pandey, Dhobi, Backlaash etc.. Now, I fear Dangal Pandhu will be a flop because Gulity Bhai is doing Sultan based on a similar theme being released earlier on Eid.

  • @dodger
    Yeh lamhe hai judaai ke was completed in 1994
    It was a delayed release and still it collected more than salman’s marigold
    Which actually collected 38 lakhs
    It was released in 2007 and is regarded as one of the biggest disasters of indian cinema

  • @stark Marigold collected 1 cr. And excuses dont work, if your star was big, yljk should have crossed 1 cr at least.

  • @stark. hahahaha lol where did u get that information from that marigold collected 38 lakhs???? It did more than a crore.

    One of the biggest disasters of all time – YLHJK might have been a delayed movie but it was released in 2004 and at that time srk was a still a big star giving conescutive hits, it released after his consecutive hits devdas, chalte chalte, khnh & just before his mhn & veer zara, it had a popular actress in raveena tandon and still it flopped big time, his voice might have dubbed in the movie but his physical presence wasn’t, while on the other hand ‘marigold’ was more like a delayed low budgeted hollywood debut of salman, it wasn’t a typical bollywood movie and it was barely promoted that too when salman was going through the worst phase of his career, according to BOI both are disasters but taking all the factors into consideration we can clearly say that YLHJK was a bigger disaster than MG and easily the biggest ever disaster of bollywood with a superstar featuring in it.

    If he wanted srk could have easily avoided the release of YLHJK as he had all the power to do it (it was a very low budget movie and the mahacrap that it was it had not chance whatsoever to do well at the BO, he could have easily paid few crores to the makers as a pre-compensation and could have completely stopped from the movie from releasing at all and could have avoided the embarrassment of having the biggest disaster of all time ) but he didn’t and after the movie ‘disaster’ed’ big time at the BO he completely disowned himself from the movie, such a cheap character he is.

    When ‘jai ho’ under performed at the BO Salman took the entire responsibility for the movie’s failure and even publicly acknowledged it (though it failed because of all the reasons other than salman) while on the other hand when the ‘crappiest movie of them all’ Ra.1 under performed big time at the BO did srk ever accept anything similar? instead he even physically abused shirish kunder for telling the truth about the cRAp.1’s disastrous nonperformance, really srk is such a cheapo.
