Wazir makers declare the film a ‘blockbuster’, celebrate success

Wazir has dropped quite significantly on Monday, but the makers of the film have already declared it a ‘blockbuster’ and continued the trend popularised by Tamasha last year.

In a series of tweets, Amitabh Bachchan expressed happiness over the box office collections of the film

“ASTOUNDING !! The foot falls on Monday for WAZIR are greater than on the first day .. ‘Maajhe .. ? adbhut ! ”

“Most valuable, reliable, authentic REVIEWERS ARE the audience .. NEVER EVER DISREGARD THEM !! WAZIR badumba ”

“WAZIR, normally Saturday sees slump – collections below the 1st day and then Sunday it rises again .. here it rises from the 1st day”

“Thank you WORLD for your expression of love appreciation and patronage for the success of ‘WAZIR’ !!”

With all due respect to the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, it’s before the multiplex era, that films would drop after a huge opening at the box office. In recent times, only films that are not targeted at the multiplexes audience or those that are completely rejected by the audience, tend to show drops on Saturday. Otherwise, most multiplex films, the category in which Wazir falls in, tend to show good growth in business on Saturday.

Wazir has collected Rs 24 crore in 4 days at the box office.

  • With due respect to Bachchan sir, he might’ve tweeted this under the influence of alcohol, just like Bhai demanded Yakub Memon to be acquitted all of a sudden 2 o’clock in the night.
    On a serious note, Wazir is a fine movie, but AB Sr. has gone a little overboard.

  • I dont know what to say… Footfalls of Monday Greater than Friday ? It collected 2.5 crores on Monday Man.. #KuchBhi …

  • @Kaali: dont drag salman on each and everything still many beleive Yakub should not be hanged whats wrong on it everyone have own freedom of expression we are not in a stone age.

  • Is Amitabh Bachchan planning to take over Comedy Nights With Kapil & Replace it with Comedy Nights With BIG B ???

  • dont expect this from amitabh sir celebrate party for wazir ? hahahaha like tamasha movie. but i expected from farhan akhter bcoz he is just fake person and stand in bollywood just bcoz of his father and mother

  • @Indicine, in any case does Amitabh Bachchan means that the tickets sold on Monday are higher than Saturday but due to drop in ticket prices the collections are less..

    I know it is highly unlikely but still have this doubt

  • This kind of promotion is not suited for Millennium superstar Big B.Thats the reason that I hardly care from the words and collections thrown by producers.They can come down any level for cheap and fake statistics.

  • Hahaha. Blockbuster only after its 4th days
    bhai also tweeted yakub menon is innocent like me plz don’t execute him .
    later he said sorry it was not my tweet
    it was my driver’s tweet !!!!!

  • Amit Sir is true loyal to his product. Though I have not yet watched the movie it should be good one considering the rave reviews that say about towering performances. Some of my freinds who watched has lot of appreciation for this unconventional thriller.coming to fate of movie this just beginning. may be like PIKU it will also reach out to where it should be. For instance if it collects another 7Cr in next 3 days 1st week net will be 32Cr appx. If another 15-16 Cr is added to it in next week then it shall be run away HIT! Besides, its collection in overseas are quite encouraging. In 3 days it has collected 10+ Cr net which could be 20 Cr life time if not more. That’s fantastic considering its genre and casts. Hence in that context it could be termed as Bluckbuster! Pls do not compare it with movie masala. It is different.
