    DON2 HIT

    MNIK HIT
    RNBDJ BLOCKBUSTER

    @IAmTheVastUniverse: srk have lees blockbuster than salman because of high budget films but srk gave all time highest grosser which salman can’t despite golden phase also srk gave back to back clean hits(BOI) where salman or amir faced failior jai ho, talash n pk(probably) but srk can’t. If salman n amir films floped then noone talked about then but when srk films fails to break previous films record several question comes since 1995 which shows srk is miles ahead of salman.

  • MNIK(202CR),RA ONE(241 CR),DON2(210CR),JTHJ(252CR),CE(422CR),HNY(384CR)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>dabang(180cr),ready(184cr),bg(195cr),ett(318cr),dabang2(258cr),jai ho(180cr),kick(378cr).look at chindi star’s film collection 4 films are below KING KHAN’S 4 YEAR BELOW FEBRUARY RELEASE MNIK(202CR)WW.now don’t cry much,lol.KING KHAN gave 2 back to back 200cr grosser,sallu struggle to get100cr and then give 200cr.forget of even chasing of 11 GIGANTIC 11 HITS IN A ROW CONTAINING 4 BLOCKBUSTER.ONLY KING KHAN could able to did that,rest are chindi,llo.

    so @tiger,besides JTHJ which film is from YRF after 2011?,lol.
    I also forgot to add with out Rajshri production/south remake /David dhawan/Anees bazmi/sonakshi sinha/masala genre.

    1.KING SRK
    .
    .
    .
    20.sallu

    KING KHAN made big productions like YRF/DP/RCE/EXCEL ENTERTAINMENT.while sallu let down bigger productions like rajshri and many more.KING KHAN made career of heroines like Kajol,Madhuri,DP,Anushka.while heroines worked with sallu already becomes history like bhagyashri,actress of film lucky /sana khan and many more now are struggling like sonakshi besides Katrina who still persists due to her tremendous talent.

    now comes to the verdicts of last 10 movies.kindly as you’re a indicine user so check one article—-SRK’S 10 HITS IN A ROW,CONSISTENCY REDEFINED.after HNY,IT become 11 HITS.you salman fans believe in multistarrer or special appearance movies upon which sallu depended before peabhu deva saved his career through south remake like no entry/partner.but WE SRKIANS couldn’t take fardeen starrer DMG and Irfan starrer bill,so taking those films instead of LEADING STARRER movie couldn’t help you.yeah it can give you 1-4 minute pleasure bit not genuine happiness.if RA ONE is a flop so as ready,dabang and all sallu’s films are disasters.even your favourite boi also said RA One is a clean HIT.but why r u crying again.BTW it gives me too much fun.

    Now comes to clear your big confusion—-excluding ATBB CE,in last film HE HAS 3 BACK TO BACK BLOCKBUSTERS—-CDI,RNBDJ,OSO.before that many of are VZ,MB.rest are big super hits like MHN,DEVDAS,JTHJ,HNY and rest are normal HITS.when jai ho(108cr) is above DON2(110CR),JTHJ(120CR)?BTW I thiu u r a customer of rakeshji’s box office site,that’s why so many wrong things written haphazardly.

    repeating same masala genre still one flop like jai ho,so sad.how could someone can give such flops even remaining in comfort zone and even after giving 5 remake blockbusters?,lol.actually I know you’ll cry by saying non holiday release.still KING KHAN’S FEBRUARY RELEASE—-MNIK IS a clean HIT could have been a blockbuster if wouldn’t have face controversy and would have release in all states.while acting sallu couldn’t be even compare with KING KHAN’S FOOT.15 FILMFARE is out of reach.KING KHAN is in the league of DILLIPJI(14 FILMFARE),BIGB(8 FILMFARE) and will be rembered even after millennium.but non actor sallu is in the league of fardeen,sohail will be a shame for his garbage remakes,lol.

    @iithewasteuniverse hope u got ur answer.actually sallu is totally a starpower less actor who can’t give even a hit with out masala.flilm+eid+3rd grade dhinka Chika music,lol.who couldn’t give a hit before 2010 with out multiactor/south remake.a whole decade his cans boycott his films,so sad.that’s why he is a stardomless actor.however I mean a non actor.that’s more than enough what he is which is even a big shame then giving his flop rows before 2010 and now proved himself zero stardom actor after giving flop ho and beaten his worldwide collection by KING KHAN’S HNY.KING KHAN IS A TIME BEST HERO.

  • @imdicine,kindly post my very important 12:28am comment with out any abusive word.I’ be.glad if you kindly publish this comment and show it to all,thanks.

  • @romance, according to u 60cr budgeted 113cr collected jai ho is a failure but 150cr budgeted 116cr collecte ra one is a succesfull movie….KNOWLEDGE OF SRK FANS..

  • @kingshuk : please read your own confusing statement :

    @Hrithik — Its confirmed…SRK tweeted just
    about its casting…Kirti even auditioned for it.

    One way you are talking about casting another way just auditioned. Hope you learn something from it n improvise. Stop blaming others !!!!!!!

  • @tiger i don’t understand the logic. 75cr budget ce is not atbb despite 208cr but 160cr budget film d3 is atbb which did 260cr. Ce roi is more than d3. But i trust boi n ra1 was hit, hny did 178.25cr.

  • @tiger,jai ho’s budget was 80cr base and 100cr+ distributor,which is a a disaster earning 108cr behind DON2(110CR) and JTHJ(120CR).still boi gave semi hit to save his image in public,lol.RA ONE is a clean hit which released in 2500+screen hike jai ho which was independence release with 4800+screen count and hiked ticket and most important of all bhai returned after a year still his fans couldn’t give even a hit.still it is below KING KHAN’S every movie from RA ONE to HNY,LOL.

  • @sss : Salman is stardomless. Really ???? Had Srk done Marigold & Main Aur Mrs Khanna he would have been vanished. Despite giving disasters look at his come back. For your Information Srk was consistently doing Romantic boring crying sagas between 1995 & 2005 (Asoka was exception which flopped). Srk started experimenting only from Paheli that too is an unofficial south remake. Atleast Salman buys the official rights n admits openly whereas Srk cheats his own fans. It is joke of the century that Salman is stardom less. Ho ho ho Lolzzz !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @sss, in which world r u living??? jai ho collected 112cr according to even trade pundits. Atleast ur mates like @romance r fan, @vikram etc fight with correct collections. Like i can also say don2 collected 98cr, jthj collected 95cr…..but i m nt a hypocrite like u to say more collections for salman movies nd less collection for srk movies.

  • @hrithik,then why did @iamwasteuniverse and @tiger said salman said 1st KING KHAN has zero stardom,it’s the answer to them not to you.I already told you from.beginning I didn’t started 1st.

    2nd thing is boring and crying sagas!!!!lol on u!!!!paheli is not a remake put this into your mind,lol.SWADES is below average not a flop.paheli/SWADES//asoka are non entertaining classics like rdb/3i/lagaan.so don’t try to target those filmse.all were doing romantic movies at that time still it’s the performance which differentiated KING KHAN from other romance movies like in DEVDAS,KHNH,K2H2,K3G(family drama),MB,VZ those are LEGENDARY movies and incomparable and you also know it very well.but why are comparing these masla less movies with sallu’s one by one masala genre movies?can salman gave a single hit romance genre with out zero fight ?no,oh sorry if you want to add those barjatya’s family dramas then I can’t help you.I mean a movie like KHNH which modernized completely romance genre in Bollywood.he is total a failure actor in romance genre.

    yes I have the guts to say if KING KHAN would have in marigold/mamk then at least it wouldn’t have even flop leave disaster.but I know after that you’ll take names of YRF/DP.then look at a simplest film like—-CHALTE CHALTE is a clean HIT despite not having a big director/banner.what u will say now?

    so can salman do a 100+cr movie with a disaster director anubhav sinha and can made HIT like RA One?or can he do a 150cr budget with having tmk fame Farah khan and can give a SUPER HIT like HNY?I know it’s impossible.salman can’t save his friends through his bad phase.while KING KHAN helped zayed,shreyas,anubhav and now Farah to be part of BO success.neither of these movies with YRF/DP.

    the main reason behind bashing jai ho as disaster is only to make people like @universe,@tiger is to realise the importance of HIT.because for them HIT doesn’t matter at all rather than blockbuster only,so for US also below HIT are flops/disaster.still you know me very well.I don’t start fight.neither I want to fight with you again.whatever I wrote that are genuine from each point another point.you can’t control you friend’s behaviour which tends me every time to to give them answer in that language that they like to listen.that’s all.

  • @tiger jai ho is semi hit(failior) but ra1 is a clean hit(success) the difference n srk is giving back 2 back 11clean hits soon srk break rajesh khanna’s back 2 back 14hit records

  • @sss : You are asking Salman which he proved 20 years ago in HAHK. He dont have to prove anything not specially to people like you. It is not a joke to survive in industry n remain among top actors despite giving many flops n seeing so many ups n downs. Same way Srk has nothing left to be prove. In current scenario Salman is ahead of Srk (atleast in India) whether you accept or not. I have told to you bash the fan himself who is talking bad about Srk instead of Salman. If you keep abusing Salman it will force me to bash Srk which I dont want to do it !!!!!!!!!!

  • @sss, the biggest CHAME LEON of the site…..whn did i start fight??? Read ur earlier comments…..king of hypopcrites…

    Yeah, nt only @hrithik but also the whole @indicine family khows u r a DHOODH KA DHULA….deleted cmmnts badshah.

  • @romance R fan, salman has the highest grosser of 20th century(HAHK)…..do u think any record can b match with it???

  • I agree srk can never match our GIGA STAR SALMAN the SUPERMAN’S record…

    Let alone srk..Even mighty amir cant…

    35 flopzz…ha ha

  • @hrithik,I tried your way from the day of entering!that is bashing ids and as a result indicine made me the person whose most comments deleted,lol.even you can also try it if you can.so tell me another way.

    ahead of KING KHAN!!what salman proved,lol?tell me which of his film is a BIG HIT instead of barjatya’s family entertainer like DEEWANA/BAAZIGAR?still KING KHAN was no.1 rank in 90’s decade by giving maximum HITS.coming to hahk is barely talking among people compared DDLJ.that shows how DDLJ is bigger than hahk?secondly hahk is a family drama and DDLJ is a pure love story.in that decade peoples went to watch hahk due to family value rather to watch salman in that movie while KING KHAN’S charming act pulled audience into theatre however family audience couldn’t come in huge number.still the difference between DDLJ(64CR) and hahk(70cr) is not that much.what what glory never end watchable movie DDLJ got that couldn’t be achieved by one/two time watchable hahk.that’s enough for me.even EPIC RAJ character is so much popular than prem.so what salman proved?A BEST PERFORMANCE/RULING each DECADE is far greater than a normal highest grossers.try to understand that.14 FILMFARE proves what HE IS that is A MEGASTAR.which couldn’t decided by you or me nor 11 CONSISTENT HITS/5blockbusters.if you didn’t have faith on FILMFARE which is simply PRICELESS and not soldable BY anyone so as WE don’t have faith in recent maasla film success of salman.will salman showed HIS dare in HIS acting skills neither HE tried in different genre which VERSATILITY shown by KING KHAN after few years in films like ANJAAM/BAAZIGAR till now.all he knows is to hide behind masala genre films.still he can’t give a simple hit after his so called big stardom in a independence release in a year gap.so WE showed his ability,no need explain about that.KING KHAN also proved what HE can do when got a release in EID with 3 big release that is similar with salman’s biggest hit which got free run still a little ahead in domestic and far behind in worldwide.if only BO matters then non of those films like SWADES/PAHELI and even a normal hit like lagaan/rdb wouldn’t have remembered by anyone.could you remember the the highest grossers from 1940-1960 with out searching over internet?I know you can’t.similarly people will only remember good films after 30-40 years and it’s superstars after many years in which salman will not get even in top2.so KING KHAN nothing have to prove because HE already RULED 2 decades and in this decade also HIS HIT LEGACY STREAK continues to beat MEGASTAR RAJESHJI.so in India may be salman in no.1 in bo after 2010 by doing masala genres but considering ALL,NO.1 is KING KHAN,THE name itself shows.what salman is to prove is to show his skill acting and versatility in order to prove to BE GENUINE NO.1.I don’t want to fight,take it lightly and reply.

    @tiger,chameleon??who??it’s @iamthevastuniverse who 1st gave hatred comment,then I started again kindly check and instead of telling him you supported.so you’re the real chameleon/hypocrite.hence proved.btw your name is very funny.whatever-the real king!!in your whole life you will be claim that for salman but so sad salman can never get that title.you think I’M lying,kindly check—-THE KING OF BOLLYWQOOD,the photo you’ll get is THE REAL KING OF BOLLYWOOD,got you moron,lol.

  • @sss : I think we need to stop it here. I stopped reading your comment aa soon as read ‘People went to watch HAHK due to family drama not Salman (which may be true) but the foolish thing you believe is people went to watch DDLJ just because of Srk’ !!!!!!! Srk himself revealed in CNWK during 1000 weeks of DDLJ episide that only one man backed him n DDLJ which was none other than SALMAN KHAN. Salman even told Srk that it will be bigger than MPK whereas Srk himself was not confident about DDLJ. Now you wanna prove Srk wrong ?? or you will still tell Salman was very small so he praised your king ?? Then only God can help you. You are a blind fan of Srk who does not want to see facts. My respect to Srk is growing as he even accepted that Salman n his family will be always close to him n there is nothing like patch up between him n Salman bcoz they both were never far or away from each other. Check YouTube n watch that episode if you still dont believe me !!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Optimus : please change your id to Octopus or Pessimist. Because every optimistic person will see positive or half glass full (Salman’s highest number of BB in India) instead of negative or empty glass (flops) like a pessimistic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @hrithik,I’m too glad that you didn’t say DDLJ becomes so HUGE because salman said it earlier.yes KING KHAN said that in comedy nights with kapill,HE didn’t have confident about that because KING KHAN was new comer at that time.even though DDLJ is biggest film in popularity still it is not MY BEST KING KHAN ROMANCE MOVIE.whatever salman said in order to praise and encourage as well as it’s a common sense what he said at that time no such films were shown.still I loves salman as a person.so stop your every time blaming towards KING KHAN.

    btw why didn’t read my comment after that.I know you read but you didn’t have answer to those question.what salman needs to prove I mentioned there.so let him to prove that.it’s KING KHAN who got FILMFARE for HIS performance in DDLJ so as kajol also and due to their wonderful act made DDLJ a EPIC MOVIE.the same I felt salman’s act was average while even madhuri/family audience created more impact in that film.in 1994,it’s KING KHAN who got FILMFARE for HIS performance in KHNH still salman didn’t get any award,that proves me right.but I know you’ll never accept anyone’s performance in a film neither in awards.so as WE also don’t care about salman’s frightened success to hide behind one masala genre in order to avoid flop.that’s all.

    @optimus,ha ha well said TRUTH always gives PAIN.

    @myanmar nigro,in jadu planet/mars may hahk is considered compared to DDLJ not in planet earth,lol.

  • @sss, really!! salman can’t giv a big hit without suraj barjatya!!! Then who starred in ETT, Dabang, Dabang2, Kick??? Ur king???
    Can u name a single blockbuster of ur king without yashraj/dharma, rohit/deepika???

  • @tiger,what I wrote in another page kindly read that again.with out sonakshi sinha/david-anees’s multistarrer films/SRK’S MADE YRF/south remake /mostly masla genre films.at least give one blockbuster just like CDI,if your actor knows acting with out that he can’t be called superstar.all his blockbuster genre is same,tell him to change the genre.then you’ll surprising to see his below 2010 career,even having so big stardom he can’t give even a hit to his brother sohail,then what kind of stardom is?,lol.he he he he.
    I added rajshri for whole 90’s.with out KING KHAN/rajshri salman didn’t have even a super hit in whole 90’s decade.don’t takre rajshri production so light they even gave shahid kapoor a blockbuster called VIVAAH.how what kind of stardom is that,lol?dabang1-2 got huge by sonakshi-even that dialogue thappad sent daar.nahi lagta got viral among masses,ett by SRK’S MADE YRF,where is salman????

  • @sss : May God give you sense !!!!! Biggest $hit I have heard on planet that Dabangg got huge by Sonakshi Sinha. Tell me why Lootera, Action Jackson, R.. Rajkumar are not big as Dabangg !!!!! Dude, you will never change n btw Filmfare is not a parameter to prove anything neither acting nor stardom. In that case, Manoj Bajpai or Naseeruddin Shah or Irrfaan Khan will have highest number of FF awards !!!! Everyone goes through ups n downs in life so did Salman whats the shame in it ??? But look at the way he has changed himself. Had he changed himself before you cant even what level he would have been. I am not like you to take away credit from Srk. He is better actor than Salman but currently slightly less superstar than Salman whether you believe or not. N this is not only my opinion but majority of Indians also believes in it !!!!!!!!!!!!!
