Bang Bang Official Box Office Collections for Thursday (Day 1)

Bang Bang has collected Rs 27.54 crore on its first day at the domestic box office, making it the 5th highest opener of all time.

The Hrithik Roshan starrer is the 2nd highest opener of 2014 after Singham Returns, which released on higher number of screens and also had significantly higher number of shows at multiplexes.

Bang Bang is the also the biggest opener of Hrithik Roshan’s career and the second higher of Katrina Kaif’s career after Dhoom 3.

The All India occupancy on Thursday was 83%, which is the best for any film released in 2014.

Some points from our box office collection report published earlier today

  • Several exhibitors have confirmed to us that the ‘show count’ of Bang Bang at multiplexes was around 20-30% lower than Kick and Jai Ho, and also about 20% lower than Singham Returns.
  • Although Fox Star Studios has officially announced that the film has released on 4300 screens in India, trade sources have confirmed to us that the film has released on approx 3500-3600 screens including regional versions, which is the lowest for a big release in 2014.
  • The fact that the film was competing with a critically acclaimed film like ‘Haider’, makes the first day business of Bang Bang excellent
  • The Top 5 opening of all time before the release of Bang Bang is as follows: Dhoom 3 – 36.22 cr, Chennai Express – 33.12 cr, Ek Tha Tiger – 32.93 cr, Singham Returns – 32.09 cr, Kick – 26.40 cr.

  • and Yesterday Modi Sir ordered all central employees to b present in their office….so technically we can’t call it a complete holiday like 15th August!still i expected more than 30 cr…….let’s see where It finally goes!best of luck Bang Bang!!

  • a request to SRK fans plz dont use words like jadoo n all these things are done by salman fans and aamir fans not by us plus SRK and HR are friends … and reply to all SRK haters except babaji

  • bang bang is 3rd highest opener in katrina kaif’s career after Dhoom3 and Ek tha Tiger. Whereas Hritik Roshan’s Biggest Opener.

  • Congrats to them. With clash thats a phenomenal figure. Without clash I think its safe to say D3s record would have been in danger but good figure on the whole.

    Watching it tonight- then I will read nipuns review before posting my review on nipuns review…!

  • People who prayed box office inida like a god when Krrish 3 was released should see this time that there is no difference between box office india collection and the official collection shown by fox star studio!! I hope this time the fans of khans will have no excuse!!

  • No of screens and shows are less because of theator owners not considered Hritik as in the level of khans

  • It’s a disappointment. I have told before itself ( on predictions page) that anything below 30 cr will be a disappointment. Now some people are talking about clash. I want to ask them how does it actually impacted the collections? Because no. Of screens are almost equal to that of recent biggies like ETT, SR, YJHD etc. Plus the buzz generated for Bang Bang was tremendous. So excuses won’t work. One should accept the fact that Bang Bang has a lots of loopholes and the makers of Bang Bang tried everything (romance, action, comedy) , but they end up with nothing.
    Collections will drop gradually and it will end up somewhere between 150-170 cr.

  • 24.75 crs on first day for hindi version only.. Today it dropped by 20%.. So 20 crs at best for today.. And weekend(3 days) will be around 65 to 70 crs.. I am disappointed as i expected 100 crs for the weekend.. I hope it jumps big on coming days..

  • watched bang bang today…!!! not very special movie as it seemed from the trailer. i liked it as i went with low expectations after reading the reviews but my friends went with huge expectations and were disappointed and said ch***a kat gaya.

    the movie has numerous flaws (the main plot line of robbing kohinoor to stop that treaty is itself very weak point to be taken seriously )
    the locations and some action scenes are really brilliant but we had already seen them in the trailer/teaser/dialogue promos/songs (although bullets keep on flying in the movie but not a single bullet touches katrina kaif )

    in the whole movie you just keep seeing hrithik(who has done a fabulous job and looks extremely charming) and katrina (who looks very cute and thats it. its better not to talk about her acting talent). there is no scope for any other actor in the movie even though jimmy shergill shines in his 5-10mminutes role (you have to notice the intensity in his eyes when he delivers his dialogues ).

    the movie is long and could have been cut a little bit short. (knight and day was not even 2 hours and looked a bit dragged)

    bang bang is exactly similar to knight and day (siddharth and hrithik kept on repeating it is not and we will offer you something different) with an extension (bollywood masala of ‘bhai ka badla’)

    i think audience should like this because of action scenes and entertainment it provides neglecting the flaws (the only thing which might obstruct its path in touching 200 crores is the huge expectations it carries with it)

    carrying so many flaws but still i will say indicine is unfair to bang bang in giving 2.5 stars.
    if indicine can give 4 stars to kick then bang bang deserved 4.5 as bang bang is still much much better than kick on any day.
    my rating is 3 stars out of 5

  • @babaji hny buzz is low, strenge cheak ormax media, srk top5 films buzz since 2011
    hny,jthj,ra1,ce,don2. Week 5 stage buzz of 2014 hny,kick,jai ho, bang bang. Week 5 stage apple jai ho, hny, kick, holiday, 2states. Clear your fact, you are overestimating from bang bang n underestamating hny, 40cr plus openning likh ke deta hu

  • My prediction went wrong due wrong information about no of screenings and less shows on available screens
    Anyway movie gonna rock
    I asked my 6-7 friends of different locations and they all enjoyed the movie
    But I have never seen such kind of negativity before on social media
    It happens only in India
    That’s why our country is behind
    If a person progress some higher people will let him down
    Sorry to say that but this is the truth

  • The collections are very good..but I guess it could have been near 30 crore had the single screens maintained the momentum throughput the day..in the long run the mixed reports might play a spoilsport

  • Haters take it nw…
    Bang Bang opens in Pakistan with 76.85lakhs…
    The highest ever in Pakistan…. Beats Kick which had 13 lakhs on day one…
    Chullu bhar paani mein doob maro Haters…

  • BANG BANG…FAIL…just see the critics review report of both the films..HAIDER is clear winner. I hope in coming days haider will perform well…and what indicine is doing…It didnt show the new POSTER of HAPPY NEW YEAR..why it is against SRK..and supporting all others…WHY WHY WHY WHY????

  • People say achieving kick box office numbers is a cake walk but its a daunting task and Kick will remian top grosser for this year.Bang bang an HApyy diwali both wont cross 200

  • makers..sit n think, why such a big movie flopped???
    a movie made for 135 crore, needs to collect 180 crores for a HIT tag!!
    seems difficult now…after audience poll today. disappointing.

  • @Gautam, did you even read the article? It recorded highest occupancy of any film in 2014 so far. A clash = less number screens and also less number of shows on multiplexes.

  • Short review
    Bang bang is best example of great action with poor script (including direction, editing)
    Acting: hritik has done a great job
    Katrina can’t act
    She deserve GOLDEN KELA AWARD ,sorry but its true.
    Only last 45 minutes are good .
    Overall bang bang completely disappointed me
    Agree with indicine it deserve 2.5 stars that is only for hritik and action

  • wondering how ppl enjoy that crap film for Ajan Devgan (Singham)?!!!!! a crap crap crap film!!!! I didn’t see Kick yet because I was away on vacation during the release date, but I heard ppl said: if u want to enjoy watching it.. just give your brain a vacation then you’ll enjoy!!!!!! hahahaha.. that means that it was also a crap stupid film.
