Bajirao Mastani, Dilwale 3rd Day Box Office Collections

Bajirao Mastani has shown phenomenal growth in business on Sunday, what with collections of the film set to come in the 18 crore range. The Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed film picked up by around 20% on Saturday and then again by 20-25% on Sunday, giving the film a very good weekend of around 47 crore in India.

The historical is carrying excellent word-of-mouth and looking at the weekend trends, there are chances that the film could collect 10 crore plus on Monday. Usually, when there is 20% or more growth on Day 2 and Day 3, it’s also a sign that the film has been liked by the audience and will hold during weekdays.

The other release, Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale wasn’t so lucky. As far as protests and cancellation of shows were concerned, it was a peaceful day. But there were a few stray incidents, like in Mangalore (Karnataka) where some shows of the film were cancelled on Sunday and advance booking has been put on hold for the weekdays due to protests.

The average growth for Dilwale at most centres that we tracked was around the 15% mark, some were a little lower, others were higher. The impact of shows getting cancelled or resuming after protests is currently not very clear. As per estimates, the film should collect around 23 crore on Sunday, taking the weekend total to around the 64 crore mark.

For the industry, it has been a big day at the box office. The combined collections of both Bajirao Mastani and Dilwale is set to be around the 42 crore mark.

Monday and the remaining weekdays will be important for both films, as the better performing film will get more shows at multiplexes in Week 2. There is the much-hyped Hollywood film ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ which releases in theatres on Christmas day, it will occupy a few screens too. The fact that big ticket Hollywood films are performing well in India (especially at Metro cities), has encouraged exhibitors to allocate plenty of shows in recent times.

The battle for screens and shows will continue in Week 2, so steady / good collections during the weekdays will be crucial for both Bajirao Mastani and Dilwale.

  • 5 out of last 8 SRK films have broke 1st day record in overseas .

    CAN YOU IMAGINE THE DOMINANCE LEVEL

    DILWALE BIGGEST OVERSEAS OPENER.

  • Breaks Opening Day Record And Its A Non-Holiday Release.
    Now in overseas, Imagine Collections In A Christmas Weekend..

  • And one more time this man SRK stands alone. None of these “Friends” came forward to say anything against these protests..

  • Pi Ki Value 3.14 Ke Baad 10 Digit taq batao : SRK _/\_ What’s Pi I can proudly say most of the actors don’t know..

  • SRK RULES.
    44cr ww on day one.
    41cr. In India two days..
    More than 84 cr. WW in two days..
    WOW <3. SRK THE EMPEROR.

  • Highest opening day in UAE..
    Highest opening day in Pakistan..
    Highest opening day in UK..
    Highest opening day in Overseas..

  • Priyanka’s performance as Kashi is being termed as one of the Best in History of Indian cinema wow,kudos to her hardwork

  • WW 1st day of HNY was 78 crore ,
    Which means if Dilwale released on 25th december with no competition WW 1st day would be 100 crore +..

    What a golden opportunity lost , koi baat nahi WW 1st day 100 crore sirf SRK ki film hi kar sakti hai aur sirf SRK ki hi karegi..

  • So a gap of 18 cr in weekend.. now it remains to be seen how much the gap increases in weekdays.. anything less than 10 cr wld augur well for bajirao in the next holiday weekend.. more and bajirao wld only be playing the catching game even in week 2!! Very difficult to predict!!
    But luking at the trends n wom for both films, the difference it seems wont be more than 30crs in lifetime collctns in favour of dilwale.. maybe srk factor n genre cld help get bigger gap!! But if its anything less than 35 it wld be a gr8 achievement for a film like bajirao n the genre it belongs!!
    Dilwale was alwys goin to be the winner coz of legend srk n genre plus more screens but bajirao has given tough competition so far being an underdog!!

  • So BM has grown by 2.5 crores today whereas Dilwale went up by 3 crores. Bajirao Mastani really needed a growth of around 4 crores today to indicate good WOM. 10 cr monday looks tough. Even Tanu weds Manu Returns had a sunday to monday fall of around 45 percent. I see BM collecting 8.5 crores tom. 76-77 cr week 1 is on. Akki’s Holiday had a 30 cr week 2 so BM with christmas holidays might score 35 crores week 2. Lifetime should be 120-125 crores at max.

  • Whatever it may be,but DILWALE IS A LONGER RUNNING FILM.

    ON MONDAY ONWARDS THIS FILM WILL NOT DROP heavily I think.bm is showing growth but when DILWALE will start IT’S game then bm will be out of game.but anyways MONDAY is the crucial day to decide.

    Don’t worry sultan the same thing will happen in RAEES VS sultan,when critics will thrash sultan,then you’ll realise at that time.

    And yeah only now deshdrohi parties are the hopes of salman fans.because from last 3DECADES your star is trying,but IT couldn’t happened.but anyway DILWALE will surely thrash bm in terms of collection in any case.

    But I can see there is huge negativity there behind DILWALE.even though DILWALE is the best Rohit Shetty film till date,This is a complete package for FAMILY.

  • Unlike Mastani, Mughal-a-Azam has great shot construction,smooth story telling, Logical narration, great acting, No self obsession.

  • Sanghis will watch Bajirao Mastani (historical Hindu-Muslim love story) & ‘boycott’ Dilwale (whose hero SRK is married to a Hindu in real) !

  • How shameless is this media. This industry. Everyone know facts. No one is ready to support him. Our Man is fighting alone. We are helpless.

  • Dilwale lost 10cr weekned due to protest otherwise 75cr weekned n due to clash lost further 30cr weekned other wise 100cr plus weekned on cards. Overall Sadly Dilwale lost 35cr weekned n expeting to recover its damage on weekdays n holiday because wom is good n Dilwale is long running horse

  • In this decade 2 big films had bigger 1st day in overseas than in India.

    1) Dilwale
    2) My Name Is Khan

    SRKKajol has too much potential.

  • SRK is going to see what happens when you are so arrogant. His third class movie Dilwale will stand no where in front of Classic Bajitao Mastani. Hats off to SLB by having such a great faith in his work and donot get bullied by this arrogant so called superstar.

  • No matter what happens good films succeed, iam not saying dilwale is terreble but it has many flows and is is an original or there is nothing new according my neutral friends obviosly i will not ask a sallu or any hatter coz i won’t get honest answer.
    Its time we except masala genre is dead, only 3 things work in bollywood currently good content,sex and salman, and that is why i believe kkhh3 will damage airlift though iam an akkian. whatever happens to Dilwale srk will remain a mega star.Nice gesture from Srk from Cnwk.

  • In fact, protests by some idiots and dumbs are giving free publicity to Dilwale, isn’t it, Indicine? As you mentioned last year, the protests helped PK too to have free publicity.
    So protests cant be neagative for Dilwale if it was positive for PK.
    In fact, admit that Dilwale badly made film and rehashed of a few Hwood & Bwood films.

  • Excellent collections of Bajirao mastani consideng lesser screens & shows compare to Dilwale… Superhit for sure..

  • Just Came Back After Watching Bajirao from Theatre .Deepika and Priyanka were Fantastic but it was Ranveer who really cleaned bowled. he lived the Role of Bajirao to the max. His Mannerism,his Dialect,his dialogue delievery Everything was Spot on as a Warrior.

    I am totally amazed by SLB Direction. This is master piece. It is not compared to Bahubali but still one of the best from Bollywood. the movie Reflects Perection.

    4.5/5 . Thank u SLB Ranveer , Deepika and Priyanka for this Amazing Experience…

  • The problem is srk fans showed extreme negativity n hatred at time of prdp.. it was really disappointing to see.. now at the time when srk and his film shd be supported salman fans cant seem to forget the disrespect n shallowness they had to bear during prdp n so they r hesitant to oppose the hooliganism of hatemongers n sum r even justifying such fringes!! I only wish that fans of all three khans keep the competition healthy n be teue to themselves n not steep low!! It isnt helping a deserved superstar like srk when sumwhr he needs full support of movie fans n people of india as a whole!!
