  • So akki has touched right chords with airlift i hopt he maintains it and do superb films and deliver blockbuster

  • Big Fall once again 74%. Monday collection 2 Cr.
    Despite being positive reviews Airlift couldn’t manage to catch the limelight. Lulz.

  • Akki should beg, Airlift is struggling inspite of great WOM. If any Khan/Hrthik was in Airlift it would have done 200 cr.

  • Mega satar salman majority of fans supported airlift.movies like ‘Airlift’ can do as good a business plz akshay fans Respect Salman bhai

  • I am really excited for Rustom . For me it is one of the most awaited movies of 2016 along with Mohenjo Daro, Baahubali : The Conclusion, Shivaay, Dangal, Raees and Fan . Neeraj Pandey is exceptional although he is not the director of Rustom but he is the dialogue writer and has also written the screenplay of Rustom . I am excited for Rustom more than H3 . I just want Rustom to be postponed from 12th August because it does not make any sense to clash with Mohenjo Daro . Both movies have different genres and both are looking good on paper so it is better that Rustom is postponed to October or November as no Big movie is scheduled to release in Nov except Rock On 2 .

  • I am a supporter of good movies and rustom looks interesting other films this year which are on my watchlist are
    neerja
    jai gangaajal
    rocky handsome
    fan
    housefull 3
    dhishoom
    rustom
    mohenjodaro
    shivaay
    sultan
    raees
    dangal.

    I hope rustom gets a solo release not necessarily on independence day.

  • rustom will be yet another classic from akshay after airlift….akshay nowadays is doing terrific movies and is trying to explore different genres which was not the case with him a few years ago…

  • Rustom looking terrific
    Neeraj as a screenplay writer nd dialogue writer is Enough.. content Rich movie Guranteed & the new director should add commercial value in which neeraj lacks. …perfect combo…¡

  • ßack off
    Leave d date 12 August for rustom. Otherwise Somebody’s mega budget movie might struggle to recover it’s cost . Just saying..Though I knw clash will be averted.

  • Mohenjodaro and Rustom both are Period dram, which means the better film will win…. u can’t say now that which will win.

  • Mohanjodaro is bigger budget film ..akshay has his own fan following nd 80 cr is minimum for it if WOM IS even average while the way kites bombed .I doubt if the content would not be good of mohanjodaro I see problems for hrithik…. a strong content will Make mohanjodaro 150 plus on clash easily ..

    Hrithk should release it on non holiday and show everyone that even without holiday he can do 150 cr.

  • this year akki sir will create a new record 3 back to back 100 crore movies in just 8 months.

    2016 is only Akki’s year
    baki sab clash mai flop ho jayege haha

  • I challenge all the lallutards that say i ur fattu bhaijaan to release sultan on non holiday aakuad hai to
    Jai ho -non holiday -112 cr
    Ye aaukad hai bina holiday k
    Yjhd without holiday -190 cr
    And akshay u made have fun all time
    Also non holiday rr-134 cr
    Bhais 2000-2010 -flops /disasters
    Akkis atleast gave one hit and superhits in an year and but our bhai hide only in holidays
    Atleast srk relases his fan in non -holiday but our bhai no aukkad
    Real superstar which films are crowd pulls through theatres
