Bajrangi Bhaijaan: Biggest television event of 2015, beats cricket matches

Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan has emerged as the biggest television event of 2015. The Kabir Khan directed film, which premiered on 11th October, has gone on to beat the viewership of all live sporting events (including IPL and other cricket matches), fiction / non-fiction television shows and all other televised events this year.

Talking to Bombay Times, Salman thanked the audience for their love towards the film

“On behalf of the cast and crew of Bajrangi Bhaijaan, I thank viewers for the love that they have given this film by first watching it in large numbers in theatres and now, in their homes. ” Salman said.

Hemal Jhaveri of Star India, was overwhelmed by the response to the film

“We are overwhelmed with the response. We knew that an iconic film like Bajrangi Bhaijaan will surely deliver exceptional viewership but these numbers are truly beyond our expectations. This movie is a reinforcement of our promise of being the only true home of blockbusters and a validation that our strategy is aligned with the viewers’ demands”

Bajrangi Bhaijaan is also the most watched Hindi film on television in the last few years, beating the previous record of 3 Idiots.

  • Wonder what was the TRP of Bahubali. It only did 120Cr in Hindi, many like me & the Indian cricket team saw it first time on TV. Remember how India lost the last ODI against SA in quick time as they had to catch Bahubali at 8 pm

  • hey indicine can u pls update any news abt bahubali tv premiere…hw mch trp ratings did bahubali got?
    i read it ws recrd breaking down south

  • Dis year is totally belong to salman khan, with prem ratan dhan payo he will be the ONLY ACTOR TO 2 ALL TIME BLOCKBUSTER IN ONE YEAR…bhai rocks

  • BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN ***** Ghatiya Cricket ** and Other Shows ** #SalmanMeriJaan #WeLoveYouSalman Hum hain Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi par Prem se sab Bajrangi bulaate hain.

  • Instead of premiering it during the afternoon with an India vs SA game still going on, had star TV telecasted it during the evening prime time slot then the TRPs would have been much higher , probably in the 18-20 TRP range.

    During its theatrical release it was Baahubali & during its TV premier it was the odd timing & the cricket match and still BB defied all these challenges to emerge as the most watched & most loved Hindi movie on both the big & small screens after Gadar & 3 idiots since the 2000s, just phenomenal !

    @Ranbir flops aka sambuddha , Lol ur comments don’t make us angry they rather make us laugh :D :D , yeah tamasha will be go onto be the biggest tamasha at the BO and I sincerely pray that it does 500 crores in India alone, keep entertaining us with ur stupid comments :D :D

    @crow dance (kid) at 12:57 p.m , hahahahaha Lol how can u even imagine rani ganguteli in BB ????? ok for few secs let’s imagine then, if srk was in the movie first & foremost the movie’s name would not have been ‘Bajrangi bhaijaan’ but still would have been the abbreviated BB i.e ‘Berangi Bakri’khan ‘ :D :D , hmmmmmm…… Bharti Singh or dolly bindra would have had played the role of munni and not harshali, hmmmmmmm………. abhishek bachan would have had played the nawaz’s role and hmmmmmmmmm…………but wait a minute …… this movie required subdued natural acting & not the type of nautanki overacting that srk does , so imagination cancelled , we can’t imagine ur queen Kong in ‘berangi bakrikhan’ Lol :D :D :D

  • Hahaha Indicine is trying hard to pacify criminal fans. First , article on “ED summoned SRK” and now this article. So they just to want to prove that all the allegations, of them being an SRK fan is rubbish and see, we can publish an article against SRK as well, at the same time, we can publish repeated articles about criminal. But indicine, sadly that is not the case here. They don’t have any issue with number of articles but they have issues with SRK articles (whether it is one or 100). Whether you publish one or multiple articles related to SRK, their cribbing will never stop.

    See, they have issues with SRK articles, but they can’t stop themselves by posting their comments.
    They proclaim they will prefer Bajirao over Dilwale but they are the one who will watch DIlwale first day itself so that they can come and mock the small loopholes of the movie.
    They have issue with you posting multiple articles related to SRK, but no body asked why you posted this article again (TRP related) though few days back, you published a similar article.
    So the conclusion is, they are the most double standard fanatic on this earth, so whatever efforts you make, they won’t stop crying.

    1. Honestly speaking , there was no need of “yesterday’s ED summoned SRK” article. All know , that not only KKR, but entire IPL is based on Money laundering and black money. Time to time, it has been proved by different agencies that lots of black money is involved in IPL. So its not about SRK.
    Since he is a bigger face not only for KKR, but for entire IPL, he is being targeted . How many of you knew ‘Jai Mehta’ before his association with KKR? Though he was the husband of Juhi Chawla, many were unaware of his personality including me. So its not like KKR is solely governed by SRK. They have many stakeholders and all are responsible. And before blaming someone directly, one should go and study first, ‘What is money laundering’. Because it’s not something very easy and volatile that everyone can come and comment without knowing the A-B-C of the same. But indicine, honestly speaking, that article was published just to prove that you can write even against SRK.

    2. Coming to this article, a similar article was published few days back and many readers had questioned there itself, if these TRPs are true as on the same day , cricket match was also there. So a big discussion happened that day itself. And I don’t see the need of you publishing this article today again ,though its not at all related. So this is your second attempt to pacify criminal fans.

    But again I will ensure , since the problem is there in their roots, you can’t just make them happy whatever you do.
    And as far as we SRK fans are concerned , we are not at all bothered. You publish 2 or 20 criminal articles daily, we don’t have any issue. Because on a single day, you published 2-3 articles related to “Prem Ko doobne se bachao” first look, but I didn’t see any SRK fan questioning your loyalty.

  • The TRP ratings of Baahubali in the States of Telangana & A.P for its TV premier was in the 35-40 range , yes , 35-40 TRP ratings for its Telugu premier! indicine any idea about its Hindi premier ratings on Sony max ????? I guess it was very high and could be in the top 10 list .

  • PRDP 1st week-200cr
    2nd week-100cr
    Remening-100cr
    Lifetime domestic 400+cr golden combo of bw is back this combo create many history`s will dought search history never going

  • Looking at the TV response, its almost certain that Bajrangi would have done 350 cr+ if it was not for Bahubali.

    Love and respect to Salman from an Ardent Aamirian!

  • @NVS
    RANI ganguteli???? Let me laugh for some minutes.
    Okay buddy if he /she or whatever was it would have surely collected 100crs only 220 cr less than its real collections..

  • @fan pk : Are you a mental ? Even check Chamatkar, 1 2 ka 4, Duplicate, Raam Jaane & recent JTHJ TRPS before you bark about past n outdated era !!!!!!!!

  • @xzone : You are pacifying yourself by writing this long peace of filth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    * If KKR wins IPL, it is due to SRK when it is screwed up then it is due to Jai Mehta and its in IPL nature. #Double standards !!!!!!!!!

    * Do you understand the difference between 2 articles ? Do you know the mechanism behind how TRPs calculated? Previous article was about BB beating 3 idiots TRPS and getting highest TRPs among Bollywood movies and this articles shows all time TRP records broken including all sports, reality shows and serials etc . !!!!!!!!!!!!! It is still better than posting sneak peak video and posting pics of the same video as another article !!!!!!!!!!!

    * We Salman fans need not to feel insecure and get pacify by these articles. It is you SRK fans who are feeling the pich, first BO, then overseas, then 300 crs club, then Bigg Boss and now TRPS on your face to prove your stupids thoughts and conclusions as wrong !!!!!!!!
