Jab Harry Met Sejal: Lifetime Box Office Prediction Update

Note: The final IndicineLBO Prediction will be published tomorrow, this is just a quick update on what number to except from the lifetime business of Shah Rukh Khan’s Jab Harry Met Sejal.

It was one of the biggest releases of the year, a film that was expected to bring the best out of Shah Rukh Khan and more importantly the director, Imtiaz Ali, who has directed films like Socha Na Tha and Jab We Met.

But right from the moment the first ‘mini trail’ was out, the interest in the film dipped and the survey we did during the ‘Tubelight’ weekend, made it pretty clear that the normal audience (not including fans) simply weren’t interested in SRK’s latest offering.

Yet, we expected the film to collect around 17-18 crore on its opening day at the box office. That was the ‘IndicineFBO’ average range, for which we were criticised and mocked from those who were certain that the film would open above 20/25 crore.

The decision to stick to the 16-17 crore range came when the response to the advance booking was dismal outside the main cities. The final prediction was supposed to be 16.5 crore, but we decided to go with 17 crore. A case of pressure from fans affecting our prediction accuracy, because lower prediction and higher collection would mean extreme criticism.

Coming to the lifetime box office collections of the film, the reports vary from negative to extremely negative. There’s a drop of 15-20% on Saturday from Friday (until 3PM) and even though business is expected to pick up in the evening and peak at night, the film would need nothing less than a miraculous turnaround to show the kind of big growth it needs on Saturday and Sunday – after a poor start on Friday.

We are currently expecting the film to wrap with lifetime collections of around 75 crore. The level of collections in the next three days will decide if it goes above that number or does the unthinkable and falls below. We should be able to get a more accurate figure looking at the Saturday number.

Stay tuned for the final ‘IndicineLBO’ box office prediction tomorrow.

  • Now all hopes on aanand l Rai, hope they find a better title for dwarf movie!
    Katrina-srk-anushka once more!

  • Shocking! Compared to all this, Tubelight’s collections are now looking as great as Sultan did last year. Now I’m afraid to even think about how bad films may perform in the near future…

  • Those who had seen JAB TAK HAI MOJO 2 say it is even crappier than Yash Jis 2012 original… bad idea by Intiaz in remaking this crapfest… he should have just gone ahead n made a porno remake of it with same lead pair n released it straight onto Brazzers under the Incest Section…!

  • Indicine has written the unthinkable -75 crores LBO. I guess Fan will end up being a winner in this flop competion.

  • some so called patriots will spread negativity even if it is bad keep ur mouth shut dont degrade ur own.country’s person He represents India.. And if u love ur country so much then keep it clean help in progression dont just pretend to love ur country if u really do then take care of it by just bashing a person dont call urself patriots!Some foreigners were saying that ur country hates ur own person there are hate more than love plz understand this u r degrading ur own country by doing all this same thing was done during tubelight also and if toh fails there will be negativity too Dont do this type of shit !

  • Less than Jai Ho yet some shameless Paglapurians predicted that it would beat Tubelights lifetime total after just 1 week… lol

  • #JabHarryMetSejal s not a perfect film

    So tillDen enjoy #Jhms
    Cheers

  • @ Indicne stop worrying about fans reaction, all u have to do is remain professional and say it like it is. I can die for Salman Khan but I never complained when u called it a flop just 4 days after release, while other sites maintained it was below average . I stuck with u and declared it flop. So do the needful and tag this briefest a disaster. I know red chillies calculator will drag it to average but I believe u have the courage to say it like it is. Long live Indicne.

  • JHMS Review:
    1st Half is Good & Funny.
    2nd Half is Boring & feels very long.
    Acting by SRK was Superb, Anushka was gpod too.
    Overall the movie is Underwhelming.
    My Rating: 2.25/5!
    My Lifetime Prediction: 85cr

  • Tubelight without Eid and same screen would have done same business
    Dissapointing year for Bollywood
    Tzh last option

  • “We are currently expecting the film to wrap with lifetime collections of around 75 crore.”.. .. …And some idiots call him world’s biggest superstar.
    #Too Much Funnn!

    • The problem is that he himself says that he the worlds biggest superstar.. and how much he loves stardom..ando how much he hates being a normal person.. he is still living in the early 2000s where these kind of statements were not taken seriously by the people.. but these days, due to his arrogance, he has lost his touch with the indian youth, who get his arrogance and are not going to cinemas to watch his movies.. its high time he stops behaving like normal people and start making movies that connect with the heartland..no one cares about his superficial stardom these days.

  • Lmfaooo, “global king” ke kya din aa gaye hain. His insufferable fans and his own arrogance deserve everything they get. He has been obsessively chasing trends, picking fights with random people over ego and maintaining his arrogant blindness for years now. In Greek tragedy, this is called Hubris. ALR project looks trash as well with this same bland duckface Anushka and plastic Kat. He has got no sense and no humility to listen to people.

  • But to be honest I am happy with the failures of tubelight and JHMS. So from now on they don’t take audience for granted and will focus on making good movies. If you are a SUPERSTAR you have to deliver SUPER PERFORMANCES. Period.

  • Why is this Golmaal ( 200 cr ) more than padmavati (180 cr ) !? Because of diwali holiday ? ???? My prediction is different from yours)) padmavati will 200-240+ and Golmal 150-170 cr .. Even bajirao was 187 cr with clash how solo relase can be 180 ?? Let’s wait and watch
