‘My Name Is Khan’ is still relevant: Shah Rukh Khan

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, whose film ‘My Name Is Khan’ completed 7 years of release, expressed sadness over the plot of the film still remaining relevant today – given the increasing plight of muslims after the 9/11 attacks in 2001.

“It’s kinda sad too that ‘My Name Is Khan’ is still relevant. But thanks Karan, Ravi, Kajol, SEL Shibani Niranjan Deepa Jimmy and all cast/crew for a special film” Shah Rukh tweeted.

The actor’s tweet is also being seen as criticism towards US President Donald Trump’s executive order to temporarily bar entry into the US to refugees and citizens from seven Muslim-majority nations.

The director of the film, Karan Johar, thanked SRK and said “Thank you Rizvan for spreading your love, your message, your innocence… Seven years of ‘My Name Is Khan'”

Released in theatres on 12 February 2010, My Name Is Khan collected Rs 210 crore worldwide. It was the biggest overseas grosser of all time when it released and performed better outside India.

Shah Rukh won his 8th Filmfare Best Actor award for performance, his last to date.

  • @nn one more thing there is a huge difference between ready and raees. when ready came it was the highest ever grosser for a non holiday release. it fell short of two films and they were dabangg ( eid release) and 3 idiots ( xmas release). ranbir kapoor and kangana ranwat later crossed it. at the time of it’s relese ready was an all time grosser for non holiday. the first film to cross 100 crore without edx). same can not be said about raees. it came with more screens than ranbir’s yjhd and kangana’s twmr and failed to beat them with hiked ticket prices. and why non holiday releases his x mas release dilwale did lower business than twmr despite having more screens and ticket prices.

  • @Indicine- Post it if you have any neutrality in your comment section.

    @Dishonest Dog-Hey rickshawala, what about Ready and TWMR’s worldwide gross? Anywhere close to Raees and Don 2’s worldwide gross? We know India is a place of Illiterate imbeciles like you, so it hardly matters if SRK falls a few crores short in domestic box-office. And also no one had to face the sort of negativity and bans created by the rickshawala-standard politicians of your country during the time of Dilwale. All lallu has outside Eid is Jai Ho with 4000 screens which failed to get any opening in spite of Solo release. So Lallu is a smaller star than Kangana and Ranbir who is just surviving due to Eid, forget about comparing with SRK. SRK doesn’t need Eid to prove his stardom and crowd-pulling capacity. Don’t you feel any shame that in spite of loosing your own bet , you are commenting here? Any doubt about the standard of Local star, Teesra Khan for two decades Flop-King lallu’s rickshawala fanbase??

  • Indicine
    1. Despite more screen why No Entry didnt beat Main Hoo na’s opening?
    2. Despite more screen every year why Salman failed to beat Trimurti/Koyla opening till 1999?
    3. Jai Ho was a solo 4000 screens release,,, not jai ho then Bhaijaan has 2 other Jan releases SOLO Salame Ishq and Veer

  • @NN
    Lallu was not a teesra Khan, he was a choutha(4th) khan last decade. Even Saif ali khan was ahead of him

    Now let me come to the point
    SRK Vs Salman
    Head on clashes
    Don vs Jaaneman

    Semi clash(Like The Jungle book vs Fan, which rickshwalas bark so much)
    Deewana Vs Ek ladka ek ladki
    Jaagruti vs Chamatkar
    SKPGY vs KANK
    CDI vs Marigold

  • @Sayar : The same Madhuri could not cross her HAHK in entire career despite working with your kingu. We can also give credit to Kajol with names ‘Paglapur waale Kajol le jaayenge’ and ‘sab kuch hota hai par Salman’s HAHK ka record nahi todta hai’ !!!!!! Salman had 14 clashes in his career out of which 12 he won (same day release) and yes he had guts to face SRK despite being in worst phase and lose than running away like a coward citing excuses. Coming to Raees, when it was announced you srkians were expecting to thrash Sultan and later predicted 250+ crs for lifetime and then after confirmation of clash were chanting 170-180 crs with clash and now comparing with Jai Ho. Mulla ki daud masjid tak likewise your gangu teli aukaat is less than 150 crs without Deepika. 300 crs is a distant but forgotten dream for you & your idol. Last thing, as per Indicine Salman Khan ruled 90’s decade if you don’t trust them don’t visit their site & comment here.

  • @nn i am commenting because you are forcing me by saying illogic things. why will i talk about worldwide collections? a film releasing on xmas can never gross lower than a post ipl release be it india or worldwide, it shows srk’s poor crowdpulling capacity. when salman films come on festivals the other non holiday releases fails to collect even the half of that, but when gangu teli’s films come on festivals then he has a consistent record of failing to cross non holiday releases. let me give a list.
    1. ra one ( diwali release)- failed to cross non holiday ready
    2. don2 ( x mas release)- failed to cross non holiday ready
    3. jab tak hain jaan ( diwali release)- failed to cross non holiday niche film barfi, housefull 2 , rowdy rathore
    4. dilwale( xmas release)- failed to cross non holiday twmr

    even his diwali release happy new year almost was successfull on not crossing non holiday release yjhd but somehow srk ki nak bach gayi.
    now give me a single example when any salman film released on any festival this decade has grossed lower than a nonholiday release.

    do you think after seeing srk’s track record on festivals this decade any trade person will call him even a star, forget about calling a superstar.
    just because he has a fluke ce nobody will care about that. infact srk ne ce ki bhi band baja di thi, when it failed to cross ett’s opening, but then deepika and rohit shetty came on to rescue and gave the film a good trending .

    @ sayar srk has only three films in his career which has a record breaking opening day and were solo starers. they were koyla, main hoon na and happy new year. while salman has four record breaking solo openers only in this decade. so what srk does in his entire career salman does only in one decade and that too when three years are remaining in the decade. so thank your god that he was not serious about his career in the last two decades ( even today he is not, but still he takes more responsibility)and also was stuck in his personal life, unless if he had worked in the same way he has been working till 2010 then srk’s name would have beeen deleted from bollywood long time ago.

  • @hritik
    Do you know to read? I have replied how as per Indicine Salman was falsely top, include kkhh and count from the time when srk even didnt make his debut. Also Indicine hasnt counted Nischay type flop movies(See Salman’s filmography) for his success ratio.
    OKay! What?? Kajol
    Before ddlj Kajol had 2 hits, both with SRK: KA and Baazigar

    Now see who was Madhuri before HAHK
    Tezzab, Dil, Beta, Ram Lakkhan, Khalnayak, Thanedaar=All Blockbuster

    As far as working with srk is concerned, its opening after all, rest depends on word of mouth

    Openings
    HAHK=9 lakhs LOL
    Dil Tera Aashiq=Yet to be updated, I m sure its less than 25 lakhs

    Now with SRK
    Anjaam= 30 lakhs
    DTPH=98 lakhs
    Koyla=1.06 cr
    Devdas=2 cr approx

    And I never said Raees will do 250 cr+ with clash. I dont keep much expectations from LT of srk films nowadays because his choice has become THE WORST. I m only hoping from ALR next(If it gets solo release)

    BTW you mean Salman lost only 2 clashes
    LOL
    He lost with John Abraham : Phir Milenge vs Dhoom
    He lost with Anil Kapoor: Auzaar vs Judaai
    Lost with Akki thrice: Kyun ki vs GM, AAA vs Suhaag, Blue vs MAMK vs All the best
    Lost with Akshay Khanna: Positive vs Saawan
    Lost with Rakhi Sawant: Marigold vs BMG
    Lost with SRK: Don-Jaaneman

    So stop fooling yourself!!!!!!!

    @INDICINE PLs publish this

  • @sayar : Now from where did word of mouth come came ? Why cant you consider same for Salman’s movies. If Tezzab, Dil, Beta, Ram Lakkhan, Khalnayak, Thanedaar are all All Time Blockbusters then Jai Ho is a Blockbuster of the century !!!!!!! Lol. Go and check the facts, do not blindly follow BOI or some foolish sites. Only Dil and Beta were biggest hits of Madhuri without Salman. Saajan and HAHK were with Salman. Tezab was Hit but not ATBB. Kahan laatey ho aise verdicts ?? Its simple, if you dont trust Indicine and their criterias then dont visit and comment here, how many times should I remind you that ? Khalnayak and Thanedaar were not Blockbusters and not even listed on BOI. Yeh Pluto ke stats yahan mat post kar !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Nangi naach aka NN : Agreed Salman’s non holiday is 120 crs Ready less than YJHD, TWMR. What about SRK’s non holiday release ? 85 crs Flop that too in 2016 !!!!!!! Lol. Before that 74 crs MNIK in 2010. Abbey idiot, HAHK was the first movie to make foray in overseas and opened the gates for Bollywood movie, if SRK had not worked with YRF/Dharma he would have been fighting in Bigg Boss. Your idol does so much promotions killing people on railway platforms and still manipulates collections to save his movies. This shows what is his current ‘Aukaat’ now. Dont even think of comparing with Megastar Salman Khan, it is impossible for your gangu teli to reach Salman’s aukaat. If Eid is so lucrative wth your gangu teli ran away from Eid ? It is better to face the clash and lose than running away like a coward and later gave excuses of friendship and movie not being completed. If movie was not ready then why did they released teaser so early with Eid 2016 as release date ? If he did for friendship then why Raees was not moved immediately after first announcement of Sultan coming on Eid ? All excuses to hide his cowardliness !!!!!!!!!

  • @Indicine-Please post this. I haven’t used any vulgar language

    @Dishonest Cow-Moron, talking about SRK’s underperformers on festive releases, your lallu couldn’t even deliver average grossers on Festivals in last decade. Remember his Dilwali releases which were Disasters? Main Aur Mrs Khanna and JaaneMann ? Even in this Decade on Diwali he couldn’t deliver a Super Hit on Diwali, his crap film was a big underperformer. That shows he is nothing without Eid. And Deepika and Rohit SHetty helped CE being an ATHG??? Deepika can’t even make her Dream Hollywood debut even with the most followed Hollywood star Vin Diesel a Hit in her own country. What stardom does she have in India then? CE was carried through and through by SRK alone, and he proved that if he comes on Eid solo he can deliver ATHG, which Gangu Teli Lallu can’t. And why are you so afraid of comparing worldwide grossers of films? Where does Ready and TWMR stand when it comes to worldwide gross? Dilwale and Don 2 were huge hits worldwide, which wasn’t the case with Ready and TWMR. THe success of a film is evident by the total worldwide gross of a film where your lallu stands like a Bheekhari. Just because your lallu is a Local star with “gawar” fanbase doesn’t mean all the other fanbases will be “gawar” like his fanbase. Lallu has no stardom outside India and Pakistan. And who cares whether a Liar and shameless person like you considers SRK a superstar or not, when a few days ago CNN called SRK a megastar??? Your Local star lallu is praised by Local websites like Indicine only, but even Indicine accepted that SRK was no.1 for most part of his career whereas Lallu has the most inconsistent career. And there should be a limit to your lies and shamelessness. Nobody forced you to comment here in Indicine, what do you mean by “forcing”, ha???? You yourself gave word that you won’t comment here if you lose your bet, still you are commenting here one after another. Any doubt that Local star, Teesra Khan for 2 decades Lallu’s fanbase consists of “gawar” rickshawalas like you?

    @Sayar- It’s not true that SRK’s choice are worst. It’s true that SRK isn’t choosing universal scripts but he has the courage to do different and versatile films. Raees is anyday far better film than Lultan which succeeded just because of Eid. And if Lallu did Dark thrillers like Fan and Raees, the films will crash on day One itself.

  • @ sayar why can’t indicine include k2h2 as salman film if you can include saawan, phir milenge as salman film where his screen time is as big as k2h2.
    you srk fans expected raees to thrash sultan but after seeing the trending of raees we all know what could have happened . at least against kaabil it managed some kind of opening and that saved it in lifetime but against sultan even that would have not happened and the film would have flopped.
    and maintain a rule . if hahk is not a salman film then andaz apna apna is also not a salman film because at that time aamir was a bigger star. if msk is not a salman film then jaan e mann is also not a salman film . and same goes for many films like london dreams, mamk, chal mere bhai, phir milenge, yuvraaj, hello , heroes , salam e ishq, baabul etc etc. salman has done also some flop films with madhuri so they are also not salman films. chand ka tukda starred sridevi who was also a big heroine so that was also not a salman film. stop this chalupana. according to your logic if salman does a film with madhuri or sridevi and if it works it becomes their film and if it does not work then it salman’s film. jeet, saajan are not salman films but andaz apna apna is a salman film because it was a flop. you have listed a long list of madhuri films but how many of them were hits because of madhuri . and even if i approve them how many of them were bigger grossers than mpk forget about being bigger hits. now what’s your excuse for mpk , bhagyeshree right.

    now listen the real bitter truth. films like hahk, ddlj, mpk, k2h2 , raja hindustani, dtph worked because of word of mouth not stardom. neither hahk workeed because of salman’s stardom nor ddlj worked because pf srk’s stardom. but salman slowly and steadily has reached a position today in his career where films are working because of his stardom. today he does not need anyone or anything to make his films work. films like ett, bg, ready worked because of his stardom. today he is pulling 3crore plus footfall for his films which is equal to the footfalls of atbbs of 15-16 years ago despite of piracy and many things. that is salman khan for me, a man who gives 5 back to back bbs , a man who gives 8 blockbuster just in one decade and that too not a full decade, a man who can gurantee a 2crore footfall even for a film like prdp, a man who can give initial like ett and bg . salman is not a two film wonder star like srk whose all career is about two films ddlj and ce. so you can deduct as many hit films as you can from salman’s filmography by giving fake excuses but it does not matter he will add 2 or 3 blockbusters more in no time. but srk’s whole career will be stuck in two films ddlj and ce.

  • @Indicine- Why do you keep blocking my comments? Don’t like facts to be posted?

    @hrithik- Lol, SRK doesn’t need need YRF-Dharma for overseas business, his Dil SE was the first film to enter UK top 10 back in 1998 without any big banner. Barking about MNIK, it was the first film to gross 210 crore on Non-Holiday, any such achievement of Local star Lallu khan? Who calls Lallu a Megastar, I mean who? Indicine? That’s your consolation? Few days ago CNN called SRK Megastar. Kaha CNN aur Kaha fanmade Indicine. Yeah, “bechara” Lallu khan has to be content with praises from Indicine when CNN calls SRK a Megastar. I guess CNN doesn’t even know the name of Local Non-Actor Lallu. http://edition.cnn.com/2017/02/07/asia/raees-pakistan-bollywood-film/ Abey gawar, if his knee needs surgery, should he continue shooting action scenes in that state and release Raees on time at the cost of his health? He gave Lallu bheek, so be content with that Local star’s “gawar” fan..!!

  • @nn again illogical statement . salman’s bajrangi bhaijaan has done 603 crore worlswide and sultan 583 crore worldwide, now tell me any srk film which is even close to that. forget about these two prdp did 365 crore world wide, while fan 180 crore worldwide, which is almost half. srk right now has no films in top5 worldwide grossers in lifetime and also in all time top 5 worldwide weekend. infact his highest grosser world wide is 395 crore of ce which is even lesser than the domestic gross of sultan and bb. now what will you say? you willl say that srk is not getting solo festival releases, though that is also an excuse. then why will i compare the worldwide collections os ready and don 2, one a non holiday release and the other a xmas release. compare the worldwide collections of don 2 and bodyguard, or bodyguard and ra one. i have no problem in talking about worldwide collections as salman kahn has not only given the highest grossers of 2010 , 11 , 12 and 15 in the domestic market but they were also the highest grossers in worldwide in those years. what ra one did or what don 2 did were absolute massacar. there is no logic to defend that a xmas release or a diwali release is grossing lower than a post ipl release whether it is domestic or worldwide. even if you say ra one did not have content that is not enough because a festival release like eid , diwali and xmas should not need content to beat a post ipl release. even sultan was a poor film still it would have not grossed lower than housefull 3, tubelight or tiger zinda hai will never gross lower than toilet ek prem katha . but srk did it four times in this decade, hny managed to get past yjhd by few crores unless it would have been five.

    and why are you talking about salman’s festive releases of last decade, this excuse of eid , diwali and xmas releases has only started this decade. can you please name me all the eid and xmas release of 2000-09 and what were their boxoffice performances. and stilll if you want to talk about that srk also has given flops on festivals like trimurti on xmas, swades on xmas and asoka on diwali. and there were many diwali releases of srk in last decade which has done lower business than non holiday releases for example don2, dtph, mohabbatein, trimurti, swades etc etc.

  • @nn salman has given all time grosser even without eid , diwali and xmas.
    and deepika has proved her worth with films like ram leela, yjhd and bajirao mastani and again she will prove with padmavati. she has achieved 1 200 crore film and 3 175 crore plus films and she is yet to work with any superstar. even her bajirao mastani would have easily crossed ce( the bheekh given by her to srk) if your gangu teli would not have disturbed her with his magnam opus dilwale.
    and the flops you are mentioning for deepika can not be bigger than maya memsahab, yeh lamhe judai ke, one two ka four , phir bhi dil hain pakistani and many more

  • @hritik
    Cool !!! But I still didnt get tha How can Salman win 12 out of 14 clashes. In that sense He lost only 2 clashes(released same day)????
    He lost with John Abraham : Phir Milenge vs Dhoom
    He lost with Anil Kapoor: Auzaar vs Judaai
    Lost with Akki thrice: Kyun ki vs GM, AAA vs Suhaag, Blue vs MAMK vs All the best
    Lost with Akshay Khanna: Positive vs Saawan
    Lost with Rakhi Sawant: Marigold vs BMG
    Lost with SRK: Don-Jaaneman
    Lost with Ranbir: GTGH vs BAH

  • @hritik
    Tezaab was a BB. U will know post update. My point was SRK proved his stardom after his openings. His all movies opened bigger than HAHK(Even 12 yrs delayed YLJK)

  • @hritik
    YRF-Dharma??
    Aise to even we will say Salman lived whole 90s only on Rajshree and Saleem Sahab gave him movies. LOL
    Look!!!
    SRK movies verdict sans YRF-Dharma
    Deewana-In BOI archive its superhit, will come up soon
    Baazigar-BOI will give it a sh verdict as per their archive
    Trimurti-record opener
    Koyla- record opener
    Pardesh-Super hit

    BTW KKHH was Dharma’s 1st film. And now see results of Befikre!!!!

    I wot go to 70s or 80s. But in 90s. Yash Ji directed 2 movies w/o srk
    Parampara and Lamhe=flop
    Aadi directed Befikre=Disaster overseas depite having NRI content

    Sooraj Barjatya w/o Salman post 90s
    MPKDH=Flop but Vivah=Even Sahid Kapoor has a Blockbuster

  • Look at this Dishonest Cow, still commenting one after another in spite of beaten in his own bet left, right and centre. Deepika gave 200 crores and 175 crore grossers? It was because of SRK that CE was an ATHG. Lallu fans steal the credits of Madhuri and Karishma for decades and now they have gotten a new “mother” in Deepika. Lol, what happened to Piku’s opening, Tamasha’s opening and lifetime and what happened to FInding Fanny? It was Ranbir Kapoor who delivered YJHD, as he was almost becoming a superstar in that phase. Do we have any doubt that Lallu fans are all dumb, uneducated, idiot rickhshawalas? He says he takes data from BOI, but still doesn’t have the brain to look at who was at number 1 for two consecutive decades. And Indicine accepts it as well. According to Indicine SRK was number 1 for most of his career. http://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/askindicine-qna-4pm/
    Indicine itself declared that SRK is the most consistent megastar ever and Lallu is inconsistent. Lallu has poor success ratio and poor hit ratio. No one compares to SRK when it comes to consistency.
    TALKING ABOUT SRK’S FLOPS???? LET’S HAVE A LOOK AT LALLU’S FLOP-CAREER IN SHORT::

    Lallu has such great ‘megastardom’ that outside India he’s a nobody and cries over SRK’s record blockbusters overseas.
    Lallu has such great stardom that he had to wait 20 years to achieve the superstar tag since he was a nobody for the entire decade of 2000’s.
    Lallu is such a chota superstar that inspite of acting in multistarrers( including Akshay, Amitabh, Anil Kapoor, Kareena, Preity) for an entire decade he couldn’t see the face of success and bhaitards complain about SRK taking the help of deepika.
    Lallu is such a chota star that he still hasn’t been able to give a hit in clashes and has all the clashes even to female oriented film like Fashion. And Lallutards compare SRK with Lallu when SRK has given blockbusters in clash.
    Lallu is such a chota star that even after being in the industry for over 27 years he hasn’t won any prestigious award.
    Lallu is such a chota star that all his movies in last decade took record breaking openings such as 5 lacs,10 lacs, sometimes 2 lacs, 1 cr, etc.
    Lallu is such a chota star whose magnum opus JAI HO took record breaking 17 cr opening with 4000 screens. Epic.
    Lallu is such a chota star that he has smartly started following the strategy of doing back to back south remakes
    Lallu is such a chota star that his all movies released in 2008 combined couldn’t match debutant Imran khan’s movie’s life time collections.
    Lallu is such a chota star that he is the only one whose almost all Diwali releases were underperformers.
    Lallu is such a chota star who is still hiding behind a shelter called eid and gives record opening only on pure eid holiday and yrf/kabir/Katrina, etc.
    Lallu is such a chota star that he has 50 flops out of 75 films, which is highest among all Khans of the generation.
    Lallu is such a chota star whose Marigold crossed epic 1 cr life time in 2007.
    Lallu is such a chota star who has no thriller genre in his 25 years old career and despite having highest number of films ‘among superstars.’
    Lallu is such a chota star that he has given talented actresses like daisy, zarine who are working in films like hate story, etc.
    Lallu is such a chota star who has never won a single clash and lost to everyone such as ranbeer, akshay, ajay, fardeen, etc.
    Lallu is such a chota star that even with a legend megastar Amitabh in film called god tussi great ho lost clash against then new commer ranbeer.
    But you know what made this chota star popular? The fact that he had the luck of being compared with King Khan.
    this is the reason bhaitards are called rickshawala fanbase. Such long comment and you couldn’t see the box office facts?
    What kind of star loses all the clashes in box office? What kind of star can’t give a hit in clash and has lost all the clashes including losing to a female oriented film Fashion. Answer. Lallu .
    So, Lallu<<<<King Khan.
    What kind of star cannot deliver record overseas blockbusters? Answer:Local star Lallu. So, Lallu<<<<King.
    What kind of star takes birth in 2009-10 after debuting in 1989? Answer: Lallu.
    So Lallu<<<<King.
    What kind of star after doing back to back multistarrer for an entire decade can't see the face of success? Answer: Lallu.
    What kind of star has to take the strategy of doing back to back south remake? Ans. Lallu.
    Lallu<<<<King
    What kind of star's all the movies released in 2008 couldn't match the life time collection of debut Imran Khan? Ans. Lallu
    Lallu<<<<King.
    What kind of star deliver's 50 flops out of 75 films, the highest among superstars?Ans. Lallu.
    This are all box office facts. But there are more.
    BETWEEN 1991-1994: SIX BACK TO BACK FLOPS.
    Lallu <<<<King
    BETWEEN 2000-2004: BACK TO BACK 10 FLOPS.
    Lallu<<<< King.
    BETWEEN 2004-2007: BACK TO BACK 9 FLOPS.
    Lallu<<<King.
    BETWEEN 2007-2008: BACK TO BACK 4 FLOPS.
    After south remake wanted,again the streak continued in 2009-2010—-3 FLOPS BACK TO BACK.
    Lallu<<<King.
    Even tushar kapoor and zayed khan can't break Lallu's record of back to back flops.
    So out of a flopstars career you have made a list of fluke hits and thereby trying to prove that Lallu is a big star. Actually Lallu is a big newcomer like Deepika who was born in 2010. So Lallu is the most promising newcomer and you have the audacity to comare Global megastar King Khan with Lallu!!!
    Let's take a look at Lolman's career in short
    1991-1994-6 back to back flops
    1995-1996-4 back to back flops(barring KA which had SRK)
    2000-2004—-9 back to back flops
    2004-2007—-8 back to back flops
    2007-2009—-4 back to back flops
    2009-2010—-3 back to back flops
    And also struggled 15 years to give own starrer hgoty.(highest ever) Don't bark about No Entry, it wasn't Lallu's lead role.
    What kind of "Cow'' tries to compare this kind of flopstar with Global star King Khan? The answer is Dishonest COW.

  • Well if someone says SRK hasnt crossed 150 cr sans deepika
    Salman in a fully fledged role(Not like 43 mins No entry, srk had 45 mins in DZ aise to) couldnt cross 30 cr without Madhuri upto 2007, srk had done it with K3g, Veer Zaara, Devdas

    Yes srk didnt break HAHK. But giving 1 BB in 1994 and coming in 2010??? Is it justifiable???

    BTW SRK crossed HAHK opening(parameter for stardom) even before HAHK release

  • @honest man

    I can say Tere Naam but wont as it opened well and was a semi-hit.

    So who says Deewali is a strong period??

    And if Salman had done Ra-One/HNY(worst films of decade) they would not have earned as much as they did

    Sultan is not a poor movie. It was a very good film. Its doing great in TV as well.
    Salman is a papa made star. Sooraj Barjatya phoned Saleem Sahab and gave him the role.
    SRK was an orphan who made it huge

  • @Sayar : Pagal bande first decide you want to debate about opening or lifetime collections ? When we talk about HAHK you are chanting about opening but when we talk about opening of ETT, BG & PRDP (like @honest man mentioned) you are talking about lifetime collections. Manipulation is in your blood & loyalty. If Salman was nothing without Saleem Saab & Rajshri then who gave Sanam Bewafaa, Baaghi, Pathar ke phool, Saajan ? Then Judwaa, PKTDK, Bandhan, Biwi No. 1 post HAHK ? That was for your claim for Rajshri made. I agreed he had series of flops after HAHK but even SRK gave continues flops after DDLJ. Just check how many hits your idol gave from Karan Arjun to DDLJ and then after DDLJ to Pardes – NONE. So according to your own logic first Salman helped him gave first Blockbuster of his career and then Yashji helped him gave ATBB and last Subhash Ghai saved him with Pardes before DTPH. Coming to opening even some below average movies of Salman opened better than hits of gangu teli Auzaar, DTA, PKTDK opened much better than KHKN, PBDHH (note that no one have accurate data pre 1996 not even BOI) I wonder from where u r posting these Pluto srats? And stop displaying your double standards like counting MAMK & Phir Milenge for Salman and not calling KKHH as his movie. In fact Salman had more screen time & more impactful roles than these movies. Last thing, I could have shown you proof of those 14 clashes results with stats & release dates but Indicine doesnt have option to post pics in comment section. For the last time if you don’t believe Indicine don’t visit their site. You live in your own fake kingu world & keep enjoying. This is nothing but fooling yourself.

  • It is funny when some 85 crs flop actor fans saying he saved 300 crs Megastar by giving Blockbuster in Karan Arjun. Whereas before KA Megastar Salman had given 2 HGOTD, 3 HGOTY & 2 ATBB. And their gangu teli gave first Blockbuster in Karan Arjun & first HGOTY after KA !!!!!! Lol

  • @Nangi Naach : Abbey idiot Dil Se was not first SRK movie to release in overseas. He already had 2 YRF movies released & one from Subhash Ghai whose concept was totally on NRI people. Can you explain why movies like Baadshah, Anjaam, Josh, Trimurti sank in overseas without a trace ? Where was the Global power ? Even Bombay & Roja did good business in overseas due to Mani Ratnam before Dil Se. Credit chor !!!!! It was obvious to open well. The bitter reality for you is your Global queen is yet to cross 500 crs WW despite having so many BBs in overseas whereas Salman have crossed 500 crs WW twice !!!!!!! Live with it you shameless retard !!!!!!!!!

  • @ sayar salman has given blockbuster in diwali and that was hssh and it was the highest grosser of the year . now you will come with your stupid excuse that it was a multistarrer but then jaan e mann, andaz apna apna hain were also multistarrers, so why count them . and the biggest diwali grosser belongs to salman’s prdp. salman had given blockbusters both in eid, diwali and x mas.

    and i never said sultan is a poor film, it was a very good film. my point is even if it was a poor film still it would have not grossed lower than post ipl release housefull3.
    you can say anything about ra one and don 2 but no excuse is enough to defend the point that a xmas release and a diwali release grossed lower than a post ipl release. because a xmas release don’t need content to beat a post ipl release. it only happened because it was a salman film and that’s why it grossed too huge for a non holiday release. same thing would have happened if bajrangi bhaijaan and sultan would have come on non holiday and a film like hny or dilwale would have released solo on any festival. even i think bajrangi bhaijaan would have beaten srk’s biggest grosser ce on a non holiday.

    and as far as yrf and dharma production is concerned they have given big hits even with solo starrers of abhishek bachchan and saif ali khan. let me tell you something very interesting. do you know that srk has never given any record opener to yrf . it’s a fact. but the first film yrf did with salman( ek tha tiger) and aamir( fanaa and dhoom3) both took record breaking opening. infact despite of doing so many films with srk they got their first record breaking opening with abhishek bachchan ( bunty aur bubly). srk has given only 1 record initial to yrf and that’s all time weekend record of veer zaara despite of doing so many films with them. but salman and aamir has 100% success in terms of record weekend as salman and aamir’s both the films( salman- ett and sultan, aamir-fanaa and dhoom3)smashed weekend record of all time .
    dharma has also same history . the only film of them to have a record opening or weekend with srk is k3g but that was due to hritik roshan. apart from that they have got no record opening with srk. hritik has given them another record opener with agneepath while they have got record weekend even with ranbir kapoor in form of yjhd. they are yet to work with salman and aamir.
    let me end my comment by quoting a famous song from a yrf fillm in my style.

    kabhi kabhi mere dil me khayal aata hain
    ke jaise srk ko banaya gaya hain yrf dharma ka khoon choosne ke liye

  • @HRITIK
    When did I talk abut PRDP/ETT? And when did I talk about Karan Arjun being an SRK solo film? Did I?

    BTW SRK broke Karan Arjun’s opening day record with Trimurti. Trimurti’s record was broken by SRK himself in Koyla. Before KA SRK had one highest opening of the year in 1993 with Darr. But if u say KA is Salman’s solo then fine!!!!!Accepted!!!!!!!!!!! u never know if srk enters 300 cr too.Fortune may change any friday, but u are a sane salman fan. For srk: His movies get openings but fail in long run, that has been the problem. Yes Salman is biggest superstar currently, I accept that. No more debate with you!!!!!!! Have fun!!!!!

    @honest man Did I ever say multistarrer?? Yes hssh was a BB , did I deny? U were the one who was saying Deewali guarentees bigger grosser , I was just giving example.

  • @Tiktik- In which world did you find that Bombay and Roja did well in overseas? THey were huge in Domestic but no report of them being huge overseas grossers. In fact Bombay and ROja were better made films than Dil SE and won awards internationally but it was Dil Se which made a mark in overseas being the first Indian film to enter the UK top 10. And talking about YRF, was SRK Yash Chopra’s son and nephew or any other relative..?? Why didn’t any YRF film become blockbuster before Darr? SRK was the biggest superstar of the 90’s and a phenomenal actor. Just imagine Gangu Teli Lallu in classic films like Darr, Dil To Pagal Hai, Veer Zaara, Mohabbatein etc. Those classics would have been wasted by Gangu Teli Flop King Lallu’s presence. It’s you Lallutards who are “Credit Chors”. KKHH was a Lallu film???? ROFL….!!!! “CREDIT CHORS” at their best. I myself am a Non-Indian 90’s kid. Nowhere did I remember watching films based on which production house they were from. Films were simply watched here since they had SRK in them, since the Deewana time. YRF-DHarma become known in the internet era so it’s Lallu who has been profitted by YRF, since he could earn some money with Ek The TIger in the overseas. Otherwise even to this day I haven’t watched 95% of Lallu films, not even on torrent. And why couldn’t YRF deliver at least a HIt in the overseas with their New-Age DDLJ i.e. “BEfikre”. Why Karan Johar can’t repeat the success he had with SRK with STOY and ADHM? Also HSSH was a Lallu film? I don’t even remember seeing his face much on TV during watching that film, all I was seeing was Saif Ali Khan and Karishma’s dancing. What logic Dishonest Cow, Andaz Apna Apna wasn’t a Lallu film?? Wasn’t he there from the beginning till end? If he can’t deliver a Hit with Aamir Khan, how can he take the credit of giving a Blockbuster with SRK? ANd Karan Arjun wasn’t SRK’s first blockbuster. It was Darr which was SRK’s first blockbuster in which he stole the light from everyone. Any such performance of Lallu the Gangu Teli Non-Actor? When the Western Media gives so much honour and respect to SRK, Lallu is known as a Criminal. One is a GLobal star with almost all his film becoming blockbusters/hit released in any time of the year with even Hollywood films, and the other is a “gawar” rickshawala Local star. http://edition.cnn.com/2017/02/07/asia/raees-pakistan-bollywood-film/ Where SRK is called a Megastar by SRK, Lallu is called a “CHichora” by other countries’ actress. That’s the level of SRK and Gangu Teli Lallu. IT’s true SRK has going through a bad phase but even in his 100th birth Lallu can’t achieve the stardom, love and respect SRK has.

  • @nn darr can be srk’s first blockbuster but before that salman has given already an atbb with mpk and darr’s footfall was not even half of mpk’s footfall, even saajan is almost sure to be an blockbuster. and now you will come up with excuse of multistarrers , then i will also say aaa was a multistarrer and i will delete it from salman’s flop list and there were many films like that. my logic is absolutely right if mujhse shaadi karogi is a multistarrer then why not jaan e mann , salman was start from end in both the films and the side hero was same ( akshay kumar). salman was also top to end in karan arjun even the films name start with his character name. you srk fans have created those excuses because srk can not match salman’s overall boxoffice career achievements. so you have to delete salman’s blockbusters so that somehow you can compare your gangu teli with salman. and in what logic mpk was a multistarrer, what logic hahk was multistarrer, if those films are not salman’s film then i am absolutely right that aaa and jaan a mann were also not salman’s films.
    and basically this staying from begining to end is a bulshit statement. srk also did negative role in anjaam , he was there from begining till end with your godmother madhuri, what happened nothing. but when he did darr it became a blockbuster. why? because sunny deol’s face was in the poster and that’s why people visited the theatre. srk was from begining till end in 1 2 ka 4 and asoka, they failed to take even a face saving opening, but k3g too a record opening and became a blockbuster. in all of those films srk was there from begining till end , then why so much difference. because in k3g hritik’s face was there in the poster, he was in the trailers, he was in the songs. people came in numbers to visit hritik and the job was done. same goes for hssh and no entry. it does not matter salman’s role time . he was there in the posters , trailers and songs. with saif ali khan , monish behl, fardeen khan and anil kapoor in his declining form a film can not become the highest grosser of the year.

    and as far as yrf is concerned srk has done many films with yrf till date but he has never given them record breaking opening. but salman did the first film with them ett it created immense buzz and smashed opening day record by a margin of 50%. same goes for aamir. and why aamir and salman even abhishek bachchan has given record breaking opening to them but srk despite of doing many so called classic films with them a record breaking opening has still not happened( srk is working with them till 24 years). he has managed only 1 record breaking all time weekend in form of veer zaara after working for 24 years while salman has done only two films with then ( ett and sultan ) and both has smashed weekend record. aamir has done the same with fanaa and dhoom 3. i can say only one thing yrf has wasted there whole career by investing on this small star, today they are investing on the right stars and they are getting the deserving result.

  • @Dishonest Cow- Tell me one thing honestly. Do you have anything called “shame”? Gave your word that you will not comment in this site, still commenting one after another with the kind of logic that even a rickhshawala will feel ashamed of. Multistarrer can help in making a film hit but how can a multistarrer be helpful in being a “flop”? You mean to say if there was a smaller star in place of Aamir Khan in Andaz Apna Apna it would have been a Hit by Gangu Teli Lallu’s starpower(???) alone? If there was Tushar Kapoor instead of Akshay Kumar in Jaanemaan it would have made Jaan-E-Mann a Hit because Lallu would be the sole star(???) in that film? WHat kind of rubbish talk is this? Have you watched Anjam that you are comparing Anjam with Darr? Anjam is the darkest film SRK has done in his career and there was nothing entertaining in that film, only torture and violence. It was a good film and one of Madhuri’s best performances but films like this don’t become successful and SRK knew it before doing it but still did it because directors used to think he wasn’t good-looking enough. People will kick you out if they hear that you said Darr became a blockbuster due to Sunny Deol who nobody gave a damn about. The only actor people remember from that film is SRK alone.And go see Darr’s poster, it would be evident who was the bigger star. And what footfall are you talking about, the kind of footfall that states that HAHK in spite of being a few crore ahead of DDLJ recorded footfall twice more than DDLJ?? There is no authentic scope to measure footfalls, so keep footfalls aside from your stupid logics. And what K3G opening are you talking about?? The whole hype with K3G was that it made the combination of three biggest star of three generation together where SRK played the central character, people never expect to see hrithik from Karan Johar films, KJO makes it very clear in every promo of his films that SRK is the central character. And I don’t even remember seeing 12 ka 4s promotions. Lallu the Gangu Teli was the reason for HSSH becoming HGOTY??? The biggest joke, the same lallu who gave 6 back to back flops before HAHK and 4 back to back flop after that barring Karan Arjun which was saved by SRK. Lallu wasn’t even given any importance in HSSH since he wasn’t a star then. Lallu with Aamir Khan gives a Disaster and Lallu with SRK gives a blockbuster, both films were acclaimed and entertaining. So it’s easy to deduct who saved the film Karan Arjun,-SRK. And that lame logic of “karan” coming before “Arjun”, ROFL..!!

    Now coming to YRF’s opening. Yash Chopra and Aditya Chopra didn’t make films to create hype and give record breaking openings. They made films so that the films will be classic great films and will be a huge success at the long run, which they were. THey did the right job by picking Amitabh before SRK and they didn’t have any option aside SRK as SRK was the biggest superstar as well the best romantic actor. People will vomit at ETT, Sultan and Dhoom 3 if you compare them with the legendary success of Darr, DDLJ, DTPH, VEER-Zaara and Mohabbatein etc. Today both YRF and Dharma has become a joke as long as they are not associated with SRK. SRK covered various genres and took all the risks in all types of films whereas lallu was even afraid to do a CHak De India because he thought it wasn’t commercial enough. Now SRK is called the Biggest moviestar in the world and Pride of India and Lallu the Gangu Teli is called “Chichora” by people outside India.

  • @nn what you are saying has no logic if hssh is not a salman film then in no way andaz apna apna is a salman film, aamir khan is a way bigger star than monish behal and saif ali khan. what you are doing is called chalupanti. that if a film of salman works it’s a multistarrer, and if it does not work it’s a salman starrer. jeet, karan arjun are not salman films because they are hits. andaz apna apna, jaan e mann are salman films because they are flops. ye chalupanti apni mujrawali mother ke saath jake kar.
    and who told hahk was few crore ahead of ddlj. according to boi.com hahk did around 72 crore net while ddlj did 53 crore net. that’s a huge difference. now if you say you don’t follow boi.com then from where have you got darr as a blockbuster.
    i went to see k3g in theater. there were many hritik roshan fans who have gone to see the film. hritik roshan at that moment was a bigger star than srk, it’s a fact. that year hritik’s yaadein took 1crore 59 lack opening which was almost record breaking while srk’s film 12ka4 took a 77 lack opening. do i need to explain more.
    as far as hssh is concerned it has the second highest weekend of all time and the highest first week of all time, it took a huge start. that was due to salman . whom should i give the credit for hssh. saif ali khan? how many solo hits he has at that time and what were their opening. or monish behl? had he been offered even a solo hero role ever, a useless guy who used to do roles of phatichar villains in films. or karishma kapoor? who gave a disaster named silsila hain pyaar ka which took a 27 lack opening. salman’s each and every film took a big opening in 1999. whether it was biwi no1, or hssh or hello brother all of them took 1 crore plus opening. and people like karishma kapoor and monish behl can not even give a 50 lack opening on their own. in 1999 all the top three lifetime grosser belong to salman .
    darr took a bumper opening and that was due to sunny, look at his track record in the 90’s. most of his films have taken bumper start. and why only anjaam even baazigar was lesser than darr despite of having chartbuster music. though boi.com is yet to update but i am dam sure baazigar’s opening will be much lesser than darr.
    it’s not the duty of the directors to give record breaking opening, it’s upto the star. aditya chopra and yash chopra gave srk great trending films but what srk gave them , slow openers. yrf is the name of the banner who took non saleable actors like abhishek, john and uday chopra and went on to make the biggest brand of indian cinema”dhoom”. that’s why when they came with a superstar like salman the buzz reached the roof and we got an unbelivable opening like ett. when they worked with aamir in dhoom3 it went on to beat the opening day collections of ce ( holiday release) even on non holiday, now can you say me what was the defect in ce.
    and why are you talking about salman flops after hahk. now let me tell about srk’s flop in 1995 and 1996 ( at the time of ddlj). trimurti, guddu, maya memsahab, chahat, army, oh darling ye hain india, zamana deewana or something like that and many more. it’s too many right.
