PK has opened to near full houses at multiplexes across the country on Friday. The early morning shows opened slow, some multiplexes were as low as 30-35% for shows that start at 8:30 in the morning, but as the day progressed, premium multiplexes were recording 100% collections.
The best response has come from cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Noida, Gurgaon, Kolkata, Pune – even though ticket prices here are selling at a premium, people were seen lining up to catch the Rajkumar Hirani – Aamir Khan film. At smaller centres too, the response has been very good. Exhibitors from south Indian centres like Mangalore, Mysore (city), Coimbatore (where PK is competing with Lingaa) have been reporting high occupancies for shows that start 10AM onwards.
3PM Update: PK is going from strength-to-strength at multiplexes. Ticket prices hasn’t affected business at premium multiplexes, where tickets are selling at all time high rates. Mass centres like C.I, C.P, Bihar, UP are average at best, but a film like PK was never to be expected to take a bumper opening here.
6PM Update: At metros, PK is on par with Happy New Year on a working day! Most night shows are sold out in advance in cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune.. It remains to be seen if the cold wave affects late night shows in North India, where the advance is lower than other places.
Love u Aamir loved the movie
Pk opening indicates amir can give openings at non-holiday while srk-sallu r eid-diwali dependent.
This shows akki n amir r king of non-holiday.
Pk opening is blockbuster
Watched PK with 8 friends and everybody loved the movie

One friend was not standing for standing ovation to PK so we asked him PK hai kya and then he stand and it was great fun of watching PK today thanks to aamir and hirani
PK’s first day collections will be nearly 35to40 crores.
Aamir haters crying lol pk rocks
Mixed response to the movie???
I doubt. The critics rating here on indicine in 7.9/10 Which is brilliant. Go check on bollymoviereviez, where they assemble all the critics review at it is 4/5 (5th highest rating ever)
Indicine has a host of Aamir haters who are bashing the film without watching it This movie shall trend like 3I Most critics say it is better than 3I
When all the top actors in this year given the poor made film, all is well by Aamir and Raju Hirani.haters are talking about it similarities with omg, lol if this was logic than I would say baby is story of same terriost vs police game like holiday and earlier films,hny is the copy of dhoom 3 and other heist and revenge drama.Lol.
Forget this pk will prove to be a winner all the way despite being most awaited and mos expected film. The average critics rating of pk is 4/5 so higher than any commercial movie from last 5 years. Raju and Aamir and team delivered a masterpiece yet again Let’s see what will be final outcome of the movie.Opening was historic considering the film is non holiday a masala film like kick and bang bang failed to collect 30 cr + let’s see will pk able to score 30cr + its looks definite due to increase rates. Still a 100 cr weekend is on that too being non holiday.Outstanding.
Will watch on Sunday.
Pk rocks.
Pk will aurely smash crappy shit year’s lifetime record in one week or so. Lifetime will surely break dhoom 3’s lifetime and cross 300 crs. Aamir is Baap of all actors in Bollywood. Haters keep hating.
at the end of 2014 I watched these movies in theatre
1st was jai ho
2nd was gunday
3rd was captain America 2
4th was holiday
5th was x men day of future past
6th was ek villain
7th was lai bhaari ( Marathi ritesh deshmukh debut)
8th was kick (2 Times)
9th will be pk.
COMPARISON OF PK AND 3 IDIOTS RATINGS:-
Indicine:-
PK ***1/2 3 Idiots ***
Rajeev Masand:-
PK ***1/5 3 Idiots ***
Raja Sen:-
PK **** 3 Idiots **
TOI:-
PK **** 3 Idiots ****1/2
Bollywood Hungama:-
PK ****1/2 3 Idiots ****1/2
Hindustan Times:-
PK **** 3 Idiots ***1/2
PK has received much more critical acclaim than 3 Idiots.
1st early estimate??
@Bulli, you watched it wit with friends hahahaha, I knew you were and are a fag and drag queen.
From Monday people will spit on PK, wasted facial expressions just like in Dhoom 3. The man just can’t act. Name one film in which his acting was extraordinary.
O..M…G:2
Superb movie! Must watch guys
@gauravv forget that even Indicine is Aamir hater,though they try to be smart by not saying againnst him directly.Even though the Raju and Aamir has high anticipation still the movie got 4/5 as average rating despite it second half slightly drag.Still Indicine said the film no where near to omg and others.They given 3i only 3 stars and saying now we had high hopes, this way pk got 1/2 star more than why disappointed.Actually admin got patriotic feeling and felt proud being an Indian after watching HNY as they had no hope from srk and farha but they had all hopes from Raju And Aamir and despite bring good to feel they are criticising film on comment section. hahaha.
Have you watched the film and what you feel about the movie as I have booked my ticket for Sunday noon show.
Meanwhile my 3 friends have seen the movie and they all loved the movie.
Pk complete copy of oh my god….
Pk is awesome.Rating 4.5/5,must watch it
it was a good movie i think 1st collection 45-50 cross and weeknd collection 150+
@bengal ka pagal, u rock big time…rofl.
Outstanding Awesome Wonderful ….no words to describe for Pk Aamir’s acting truly hats off and as hirani said abt Aamir this act couldn’t do like Aamir
Aamir was outstanding man another benchmark will be done on box office it will creat the 3rd club of 300 for sure i can bet to anyone
@Aniel : If you havent watch Lagaan, Ghajini, RDB, Taare Zameen Par, 3 Idiots then I will send you free DvDs watch it you will learn two things : Pure acting with versality and How to be a good actor without bleating. You are still in HNY days where audiences ignored movie from Monday onwards after 108 crs n didnt even turn into a Blockbuster despite so many promotions, SLAM tour n Diwali solo release !!!!!!!!!!! PK in worst case will surpass HNY 205 Crs. Mark my words !!!!!!!!!!!
OMG- Just come from My second show of PK with family and I loved it more than the first time. Short review as Im pretty tired from drive back n wallet surgery- expensive day but well worth every penny.
Ok so repeat values are definitely there and content is strong n captivating. Second half has the right elements including the forsaken love angle which mass audiences would love so I dont buy ‘this forced love angle sentiment’ of yours Indicine. (Read your review and will not respond to it as its not the right place to do so)
The best scene was the ‘The final Question’ segment- again similar to OMG but not many saw OMG n more will see PK so the emotions delivered by PK in his response n subsequent reasonings were sublime. Paresh did a stellar job but here PK is really exhausted searching for God n his suffering brings a silence to the room as we all can relate to similar frustrations/ fatigue. I get frustrated seeing dynamic made chameleons on Indicine roaming freely or SSS Khans spelling deteriorating or Indicine posting more silly Qs from
Sambuddha Mukherjee about Arjun Kapoors potential debut in Tollywood or a possible reconciliation between Saruman and babaji kshitij Srivastava….!
Also the Sarfaraz / Jaggu church scene retold brought a tear to my eyes n audiences held their breath during that part. Really heartfelt emotional ride- top work team. I think second half was GOOD n ofcourse first half rocked big time but the ending scene (I wont spoil anyones enjoyment here so relax) brought the house down.
All in all PK the character was magnificently played by Aamir- cant see anyone else doing that role- he held the audiences attention with everything he did or said- proud of Raju Sirs direction as his friendship with Aamir ensured he got the maximum out of Aamir and PK….!
The only thing stopping me from giving the movie a total 5 stars is I (spoiler alert) would have loved it if Raju Sir had shown the audience PK using his ‘remote’ to actually send out signals to his spaceship… This was shown in Jaadoo Mil Gaya n the kids loved this in that movie so more so for the kids this addition could have given greater scope for kids to come back for more.
Film deserves more than 4.5 stars but thats the best I can give it.
Watch it and forget 3 idiots- different topic with 3 lead characters who brought so much to the movie- here PK and Jaggu are main draw so they are one man down compared with 3 idiots but still do enough to keep you intrigued through 150 mins. This ones a classic and boxoffice winner all the way into the 300 cr club.
Our dear friend @IamAKN aka Asad Khan Nasar getting trolled on iMDB by iMDB users for posting fake reviews of PK against iMDB rules..
too much fun..
you better watch senseless movies bloody Aamir hater..Aamir movies aren’t meant for people like you…
@sss you please watch Maya Memsaab, guddu, eng babu desi mem, chaahat, duplicate, billu, Ra.one, HNY this Christmas and new year rather than watching PK..
