‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ has entered the Top 5 highest grossers of 2016, and the film could go as high as the 2nd spot among Hindi releases this year.
The Neeraj Pandey directed film has beaten bigger film (in terms of star cast) like Hrithik Roshan’s Mohenjo Daro, Shah Rukh Khan’s FAN and Akshay Kumar’s Housefull 3.
The film could eventually surpass the lifetime business of the other two Akshay films – Rustom and Airlift.
‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ is also the highest career grosser for Neeraj Pandey, who has previously directed classics like Special 26 and Baby.
It remains to be seen where ’MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ will stand at the end of year after the release of Shivaay, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Dangal.

Waiting of miyaaa bhai and adhm
1) sultan
2) dangal
3) shivaay
4) airlift
5) ms dhoni
Top 5 of 2016
All time blockbuster…..Megastar
So What ? There are so many other bollywood news apart from these boring articles related to Dhoni’s 3hours long biopic. Why are you not posting about Dangal movie inside reports and Hrithik has to mimic all actors voice in Kaabil.
Who cares! Give me news about raees, is it true that mahira Khan will be replaced?
Pink just a hit??
Shivaay and Dangal will surely be in top 3 grossers of 2016.
@indicine Is it true that Shivaay makere sorted out 3000 screens in India, which means it will get around 3500 screens by the release of the film?
SSR is next superstar
his film of choice is better than ranbir ranveer sidharth
only problem is with SSR is he only done 1 film in a year with perpection
next aamir khan SSR
and i believe that SSR acting in ms dhoni is better than crap fan srk
Should be 130+ …!!!
Really happy for neeraj pandey..!!!
#Crack
but u had gvn detailed analysis of how dishoom is a semi hit. so wat happened now. y r u calling it abv avg??
Many have commented about box office performance of MS dhoni. Here is my take.
Box office analysis of Dhoni TUS has 3 timelines..
a) When movie was made
People thought making a movie with 80cr budget with SSR as lead will be a disaster, it may fold under 50cr.
b) Post trailer and pre release
People thought it will do very well at the box office and will do 125cr at box office.
c) Post weekend
After extraordinary weekend everyone thought that movie will easily cross 150 cr plus.
I feel movie has done really well if you look at holistic picture.
Star power of MSD has been proved. Neeraj Pandey has got his first big commercial success. SSR has got the much deserved reckoning.
MSD biopic will not beat rustom/airlift
Very good movie. MAHI mar raha hai. I like how Dhoni used to pretend talking on phone. I sometime do the same.
Very Good Movie….
I Like Dhoni as Shusant..
But I think It Will Lifetime 130-135…
Excellent Movie
Sultan will be No.1 in 2016
Trade fig including dubbed version is 107.50 crs , so diff is only 4.8 crs which is not much .
My top 5 of this yr so far
-ms dhoni
-rustom
-sultan
-ghayal once again
-ki & ka
Now waiting for shivaay, befikre and dangal
people are just wow…..i have never seen such criticism for any trailer like before….ya i am talking about befikre trailer,whether its youtube,twitter comments(any critic who shared),indicine comment box..or any other place,people are critising aditya ,ranveer ,vaani ,yrf like hell…………….but at the end of the day 17 hours 47 lakh views..wow……………..then why are you watching this trailer…go to hell
mark my words,this movie is going to open 15+ crore and 50+ weekend………this movie is going to start a new trend in bollywood.
@Syed : Jalan ki boo aa rahi hai !!!!!!
Duniya ka sabse bada Superstar not even in Top 5. Love to see faces of Srk fans now !!!!!!!!
Too much fun !!!!!!!!!
It is also a fitting reply to blind Akki fans who thinks Akki is more powerful than Salman & Aamir. MSD will beat Airlift for sure.

Megastar Bhai’s SULTAN first 4 days collections>>>>>>>>> all the other releases (including gigastar, makki & jokerboy movies) lifetime collections.
Too much funnnn!
only sultan will win the race this year
Honestly i am not akki hater. To those who have thought of me as akki hater, i would clerify that i have been bashing him only because of his few lunatic fans like @Jolly and few others. I even congratulated him on his 3000 cr article. But his dumb fans never allowed me to respect him and provoked me to bash him with their hatred against ajay. My last warning to them, dont force me to bash akshay. I supported rustom over MD, airlift and baby as well. So be reespectful. Cheers.
@05:36pm
hrithik (original) also know as (aka)
Salman Fan
Agree with you
Sometimes im regretted to say you
Arey Sharam Karo Jinka Un promote kiya (Mohenjo Daro) tu toh ussi ka Actor ka naam lekke comments karte ho
Hypocrisy
Now n then you Mrs So called Intellectual Salman Fan supporting
#Kaabil Movie
For what sake
First of all agree that you are just a parrot of Saint’s or astrologer
Haters are always hate a movie wheather its a damn good or utter crap like Haters are at peak Jealous n ego when Mohenjo Daro trailer released and before the day its theatrical release
Go To Pak
Ban #TigerZindhaHai
No more shooting or artists from or to Pak
TJB should be an ATBB as it is all time biggest hit of Hollywood..please correct it
@SHIVAAY GANG AKA (AJAY ROCKS) thank you as an akki fan even i find other fans annoying including sunny akkiholic, rew1 and many others. Anyways my best wishes to ajay and entire team of shivaay can’t wait for diwali going to go first day first show with family and friends to watch shivaay.
