The week 1 collections of Emraan Hashmi’s Murder 2 are staggering! The film is on an absolute dream run at the box office and is already a super-hit. After a huge opening on Friday, Saturday collections dipped slightly but Sunday was humongous as the film collected 22.25 crores during the weekend. Monday was always going to be crucial if the film had to be one of the biggest hits of the year and Murder 2 remained rock steady on Monday. The rest of the weekdays were good too and the film ends Week 1 with Rs 36.5 crores nett. Made on a medium budget, Murder 2 is the biggest R.O.I (return on investment) HIT of the year. Check out the detailed, day to day Wee k 1 collections of Murder 2

Buddha Hoga Tera Baap has been declared a FLOP by the trade. Here are some of the reasons.. The theatrical business has failed to live up to expectations as the Amitabh Bachchan starrer opened to a disappointing response on Friday. The film was quite obviously affected by the release of biggies like Delhi Belly and Transformers 3. On weekdays the business was steady on the lower side, but not enough to recover its investment through

Delhi Belly is yet another winner for Aamir Khan Productions! The film is a massive hit in cities and the youth has taken to the film big time! The romantic comedy will soon be the Dil Chahta Hai of this generation, a cult classic that is also – arguably – the craziest film to have come out of the Hindi Film Industry! Its an ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT or WALK OUT UTTERLY DISGUSTED kind of film and credit certainly goes to

A few years ago, sequels were risky but films like Hera Pheri 2 and Dhoom 2 changed it all. Now every successful film has a sequel, there is Dabangg 2, Wanted 2, Ready 2, Krrish 2, Dhoom 3, Once Upon A Time In Mumbai 2.. the list is endless. Double Dhamaal is the sequel to 2007’s Dhamaal and with director Indra Kumar at the helm, the film should be yet another laugh riot. Coming to the box office, a lot has changed since 2007. A 15 crore weekend was considered huge back then, now anything less even for medium budget films like Double Dhamaal is likely to be termed as ‘disappointing’. Below is the box office prediction for Double Dhamaal..

Shahrukh Khan, widely regarded as one of the sharpest minds in the industry, hasn’t enjoyed much success as a producer. So far, he has produced 10 films (including Always Kabhi Kabhi which released today), out of which 4 have done well and the rest have failed to make any impact. Kaal, which he co-produced with Karan Johar, opened well but soon faded away. Below is a list of Shahrukh Khan Films as a Producer (box office verdict in brackets)

Ready has shocked and surprised the trade once again. The demand for the movie is just mind-boggling at the moment. Second Friday (8th day) witnessed a drop and the film managed a decent 4.5 crores. On Saturday it picked up, but what’s shocking are the collections on Sunday, which according to our early estimates could be as high as 9 to 9.5 crores! Single screens were full all over, infact extra seats were added on many screens to accommodate more people. Most multiplexes were houseful too for the evening and night shows. We spoke to a 11 year old kid,

3 Idiots, Dabangg and Ready are three of the biggest money-spinners in the history of our film industry and comparing the box office figures of these films gives us a good idea on why 3 Idiots went on to nett 200 crores in India and remains the biggest grosser ever, why Dabangg did very well initially but couldn’t beat 3 Idiots and why Ready is unlikely to come close to the lifetime business of Dabangg. Check out the comparison table below

Ready is officially the first Blockbuster of 2011. The film has surpassed all expectations and has held-on pretty firmly during the weekdays. Although many trade pundits predicted huge drops Monday onwards, the Anees Bazmee directed film witnessed less than 50% drop from its first day of release (Friday). Below is a day-to-day nett gross of Ready
