PK vs Dhoom 3: PK showing much better trends

PK is showing much better trends than Dhoom 3, which indicates that the film will not only cross the 300 crore mark, but could go on to be a much bigger grosser.  The second week collection comparison suggests that PK is likely to be ahead by around 20-30% and could sustain even better during the weekdays.

Comparing the word-of-mouth, the Rajkumar Hirani film is easily the better liked film of the two. While Dhoom 3 also did well, it wasn’t carrying that ‘must watch’ tag – which could be a key factor, especially with the New Year holiday and a open week before the release of Tevar.

  • I am big pk fan but why do you guys abusing Shahrukh and Salman….dont you guys want they be good friends and we enjoy there movies….i just hope shahrukh and salman also does content rich movies even though box office wise it wouldnt make any records…hate no brainer masala movies love content rich movies

  • @flopArjunKapoorfan @sky
    Can u please keep ur opinions with you.
    I am hardcore ranbir fan. Let me tell u facts:
    1) srk : stammers a lot
    2)amir : steals credit
    3) salman:- tries hard to act but fails.
    4) hrithik: shivers,shivers and shivers.
    5)akki: laughs throughout his movies.
    6)ajay: does worst films
    7)ranveer: torture acting and bores people to death.
    8) emran: only kissing scene n romance in full film.
    9) varun: overactor n full to non-versatile
    10) sid: expressionless actor.
    11)arjun: god knows what he does or even tries to do.

  • why are you not posting collection of UGLY. UGLY as a cinema is far ahead of PK . Indian audience are not mature enough to understand movie like UGLY. This is cinema par class.

  • @kingshuk – im not a fan of any specific actor but your comment that CE trended better than D3 is just so silly. Clash happened after a week, even first weekdays prove which trending was better. Plus OUATIM was a big flop, didn’t effect CE much really

  • True that PK is carrying must watch tag.2 nd time I watched 1st morning show of PK and it was very cold but a uncle above 60 years was sitting next to me in that cold morning

  • @kingshuk yes I read boi,haven’t you read what they said,pk may get 12 million dollar collection in us/ccanada.
    I haven’t said that Christmas not playing part in pk success,but I just wanna give you some facts which you know,understand but not ready to accept being a srk fan.For example you said srk is far ahead than Aamir in overseas,he was but not now.You said Don was not a brand like dhoom but you should know Don 1 was blockbuster in overseas so as dhoom 2, srk who has 3.7 billion fans as per complan+Google boy if he need a brand like dhoom to score bigger than Aamir on Christmas than I think both are equivalent.be specific either srk is much much ahead than Aamir there it he need a brand like Aamir to score big.If you choose first option than srk lost big margin,if you choose second than it shows Aamir has made a huge mark in overseas.
    My only advise if you from heart ready to accept other success you will get more satisfaction than butnig with jeulosy.
    Learn something from srk fans like @challa,@king,@gautam,@i am srk fan,@yy mithaiwala,@zeeshan etc rather than walking in line of @sem,@sss,@romance,@imakn etc.

  • Aamir’s pk gonna surpass 300cr easily but our king and greek god movies need a lot of manipulation to cross even 200cr and 150cr mark….lol.

  • @kingshuk, when boi said hny collected 180cr lifetime u srk fans called it fake site…..now beliving boi blindly for anything said about pk……double standard should have a limit…

  • If you think PK was better than Haider, then guys you are totally wrong at establishing your point.

    If PK portrayed the mentality of the indian society,
    then Haider portrayed the actual reality of the indian society!

    No matter PK is a movie with content which has inpressed everyone. Rajkumar Hirani is a genius. In India, we can trust upon someone for content based movies then Rajkumar Hirani is the guy who has did it over and over again. Same views for Vishal Dadlani. I WOULD IF PEOPLE IN INDIA WOULD FORGET THE ACTOR AND START WATCHING MOVIES ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTOR’S PAST MOVIES THEN BOLLYWOOD WILL GROW.

    THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOLLYWOOD AND BOLLYWOOD IS THAT THEY WORSHIP DIRECTORS AND WE WORSHIP HEROES.

  • PK FIGURES ARE NOT CORRECT.

    Till date OFFICAL domestic figures is 175 cores nett
    Boxoffice India is owned and run by Amir khan and his close friend Which only updates with aamir bigger hit,

    India will never change , IF anyone or anything relate to religious come it because popular either its fight between cast or a movie on religious…

  • @ sky

    I am sorry. I disagree. CE was just a bad bore of a movie. Neither it was high on entertainment nor it was high on content. It is barely rated 6/10 on IMDB. The real rating is even lower as SRK fans have biasly rated it higher.

    SRK’s films since CDI in 2007 has been low on ENTERTAINMENT and CONTENT both.

    Ra.One. Don-2, JTHJ, CE etc.

    HNY and CE survived purely on MASALA factor. CE was just bore where as HNY atleast partly entertained . Both were poorly scripted, directed and acted.

    SRKs biggest weakness is AAMIR’s biggest strength. AAMIR is choosy and picks script that will puts him is good position of establishing BO RECORDS.

    SRKs inner circle & poor choices are his undoing. ROHIT SHETTY is only good enough to work with DEVGANS and AKSHAYS of bollywood, the non-Khan “B” catagory of stars.

    SRK is teaming up with him again! CE may have worked on MASALA factor but it was just a loud, badly executed mess.

    AAMIR also works in non-entertaining, non-masala movies (TALAASH, DHOOBI GHAT) but are rated high on IMDB 7-8/10.

    But AAMIR also works in sophisticated, well directed movies high on both CONTENT, ENTERTAINMENT & MASALA –> 3 IDIOTS and P.K.

    This is where SRK has missed out on while focusing on KKR cricket and RED CHILLIES VFX.

    SRK once he turns 50+ might loose SUPERSTARDOM. Its a strong possibility. AB went througn this between 1987-1992 period as he was around 47-52.

    AAMIR has positioned himself exellently. SALMAN has learned to completely depend on TAMIL, TELUGU ATBB remakes to keep his fan following.

    SRK might actually loose out.

    FAN & RAEES are SRKs litmus test movies.

    FAN is making all the right moves. Just hired South Korean Stunt Director, worlds best who has made stunts for AVENGERS-2

    RAEES moved in completely WRONG direction. Pakistani Mahira Khan given lead role as his wife. Pakistani PTV dry television acting can alone destroy RAEES’ chemistry and lower both CONTENT and ENTERTAINMENT quotient.

  • Aamir-the one and only true megastar of Bollywood…..and i think bollywood nothing without Aamir…he is the only actor who can do any type of role or acting..Aamir we salute you and again you have proved that why you are mr.perfectionist

  • @sky – I never said this things like 3.7 billion fans or SRK is ahead of AAMIR in overseas and not rven denying the fact that PK will earn 12 million in overseas…I just said tge fact which made D3, PK earn big in overseas…i.may Don 1 is a bb in overseas but it doesn’t mean that all the next don parts will be bbs…wom, hype etc also matters…otherwise who would have thought that CE will earn 100 crs overseas…yes there are certain factors like eid holiday etc but it all depends on the mood of audience that which film they will accept or not…

  • @Tiger – I never chanted anything about HNY earning 200 crs or boi a fake site…but isn’t it quite obvious that a fan will accept thar collection which is higher ???

  • @abc – Just see the 3rd week collection of CE and D3…D3 17+ CRS in 2000 + screens and CE 16+ CRS in 500-800 screens…otherwise D3 would havr made it to 300 crs and CE would have finished below 200 crs as though OUATIMD SATYAGRAHA flopped but took away huge chunk of screens from it.

  • GUYS FIRST CONGRATS FOR PK COLLECTIONS BUT AT WHAT COST, MARK MY WORDS THIS MOVIE WILL COST AMIR HIS CAREER, IT WILL DO TO AAMIR WHICH MY NAME IS KHAN DID TO SRK, BTW MNIK WAS ALSO THE HIGHEST GROSSING OVERSEAS MOVIE. I LEFT PK MID WAY PATHETIC MOVIE.

  • PK again showed huge growth on Sunday like the first week as it grossed an outstanding 24 crore apprx as per early estimates. The film has grossed around 55 crore nett in its second weekend. The second weekend business of PK is as follows.

    Friday – 14,25,00,000

    Saturday – 17,00,00,000

    Sunday – 23,75,00,000 (early estimate)

    Total – 55,00,00,000

    This 55 crore nett figure has smashed all records for the second weekend by a distance. Dhoom 3 held the record and had grossed 37 crore nett for the second weekend. Kick which was the highest grosser this year before PK had grossed 46 crore nett week two. Only Dhoom 3 and 3 Idiots have collected more in week two than what PK has grossed in second

  • Bollywood star Aamir Khan has outdone himself, just about. His current release, the Rajkumar Hirani-directed comedy/drama PK, has become the highest-grossing foreign-language film of 2014 in North America with a cume to date of $7.91M after two frames. That sets it just below his mega-hit last December, Dhoom 3, which ultimately earned a touch over $8M at the North American box office — but PK could be on track to pass that. After opening last weekend to the biggest Bollywood bow of all time in North America with $3.57M at 272 locations, the UTV-released PK parlayed that into a $6.16M first week and added $1.75M this weekend at 264 dates. In a case of turnabout-is-fair-play, PK just leapfrogged Mexico’s Cantinflas, which was the foreign-language title holder before this weekend with $6.38M. Last year, it was Mexico’s Instructions Not Included which widely ended up the biggest foreign language title in North America, while Dhoom 3 came in 2nd.

    PK now has an estimated cume in India of $51.6M and an overseas total of $17.8M (including North America). If the $51.6M cume at home holds after actuals are reported, and not taking currency fluctuations into account, that would catapult PK to the status of biggest Bollywood movie of all time at 327.6 crore — well beyond Dhoom 3‘s 284.27 crore, which at today’s exchange rate would equal $44.8M. It would also be the first time a Bollywood movie passes the 300 crore benchmark.

    The story sees Khan as an alien who lands in the Rajasthan desert with a mission to study life on Earth. When the device that allows him to communicate with his spaceship is stolen, he sets out to find it while attempting to blend in. Ultimately, he heads to Delhi where the fish-out-of-water asks innocent questions that hold a deep and valuable meaning about the belief system that humans have created to reach God. There’s some controversy in India from religious groups against the film, but that hasn’t seemed to have dented box office at all.

    It’s been a couple of very strong years for Bollywood globally including 2014’s Salman Khan-starrer Kick; Fox’s Hrithik Roshan vehicle, and Knight & Day remake, Bang Bang; and Shah Rukh Khan’s Happy New Year. When PK kicked off last week, it entered the North American Top 10 at No. 9 becoming the third Bollywood title to do so in recent memory, following Dhoom 3 and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, both last year.

  • 22cr on its tenth day-sunday- OMG thats 5 cr less than what it did on Day One- this is Day Tens collection- repeat value for all future films should now be measured against PK not 3 idiots- its trending is so unprecedented that predicting third week is going to be an even tougher task than what week 2 was…. Nobody will get the final figure right but Im gonna forget about 350cr now and start talking about 400cr- PK truly is rocking

  • PK will cross Dhoom 3 domestic lifetime collections easily now.Even 350 lifetime is possible for PK.300 crore club is 100% sure now.

  • Many salmir fans might have a thought upon me as an amir hater.but actually I never was a hater of any actor till 2010.salman and amir when get success then their jobless fans barked a lot while the same WE didn’t when KING SRK was at top1.that’s the different US and them.

    @sky,DON2 affected fully negative wom created by RA ONE.but why you’re comparing 3 year before DON2 with today’s pk.whether in ticket price or in screen count.if that so then your star’s talash and tzp didn’t collected even half of KING SRK’S 7 year back KANK.then what you’ll said about that?in overseas/domestic a film runs after KING SRK’S name.while whatever amir achieved only due to content and brand,admit it if you have guts.

    @suchit,don’t bark much.yes WE know what’s the reason behind your excitement.how much FAN/RAEES will collect no need to predict.because no one can expect or predict KING KHAN.KAB kaise WOH record bana denge kisi ko bhi pata nahi hota woh.HE IS THE RULER OF THE GENERATION.BTW why your comparing your 12 hits in 25 year career half actor with KING OF BOLLYWOOD,lol.

  • PK 2nd weekend collection
    fri – 14crore
    sat – 17crore
    sun – 24crore
    total – 55crore! outstanding!!
    it will cross 300crore very soon…

  • @sss, thatz mean u accepted ur king is way behind salmir now.

    If don2 was effected due to negativity of ra one then dhoom3 was effected even more due the negativity of talash….

  • @sss khan stop being a saint.. you King fans never acknowledge any other actors in reality..I have been a follower of Indicine for the last 5 years..and since then nothing has changed..Bhai and Aamir’s success led to jealousy in you guys who until then appreciated other actors..this was also evident when K3 crossed CE within 2 months..

    Also..don’t care how much Fan or Raees collects..but as a cinema lover i hope it’s content rich movie when compared to rank craps like HNY, CE and Ra.One(which are classic as per the cinema loving you :P )

    Also speaking about Don 2..there was 3I and Ghajini before that..so your point is highly invalid!!!

    Also speaking about hiked prices..your King too did it and it was you guys who cried that people can shell out their money just to watch SRK onscreen, so from hereon stop being a hypocrite and speak sense!!!

    Amen!!

  • Huge protest against p.k in bhopal and ahemdabad….Dear aamir fans enjoy the protest…we srk fans wont call it Publishitty stund….6 yrs ago our MNIK released, shivsena attacked our film..that time u aamir and sallu fans were barking that was srk’s publicity stunt…feel…and enjoy the protest…
