Bang Bang has recorded the best ever weekend collections for a Bollywood film released this year. The film opened very well in the domestic markets and the response overseas was equally good too.
Fox Star Studios has officially announced that the Hrithik Roshan starrer has ‘grossed’ more than Rs 175 crore (4 days) at the worldwide box office, making it the highest grosser this year ahead of Kick which collected Rs 158 crore in its first 4 days worldwide.
The overseas collections of the film is way ahead of the first 4 day business of Kick, which grossed Rs 33 crore. However, the film was affected by the pre-Eid period in muslim-dominated markets like U.A.E, Pakistan and even in UK.
A Hollywood website, Deadline, reports (Note: the collections are for 3 day weekend between October 3rd to October 5th)
Bang Bang stars Bollywood heartthrob Hrithik Roshan and the increasingly successful Katrina Kaif in a remake of Fox’s Knight And Day. It took $25.4M (Rs 152 cr) worldwide from about 4,700 screens in more than eight markets. Notably, in India, it earned $19.3M from 4,200 plays. That’s the 3rd highest-grossing opening weekend ever for a non-franchise title and the biggest and widest opening weekend ever for FoxStar. In North America, the FIP financed and produced film scored $1.35M from 271 screens and in the UK earned $922K from 116. Those are each the biggest Bollywood openings of 2014 in those markets. The Middle East is led by the UAE and its $1.8M from 44 screens. In another milestone, that’s the 3rd highest grossing opening weekend ever for a Bollywood title in the region. Impressively at release on Thursday, it grossed approximately $7M worldwide, a huge turn. Further, the U.S. debut bested that of Kick from superstar Salman Khan which bowed in July.
Bang Bang has also performed outstandingly in equally important overseas markets like Pakistan, Australia and New Zealand.
According to Fox Star Studios, the worldwide collections of Bang Bang is as follows
- India gross – 123 cr (net collections after entertainment taxes is 94.13 cr)
- Overseas gross – 41.14 cr
- Worldwide total gross – 164.14 cr (4 days India, 3 days overseas)
waiting for FoxStar’s success party! Lol
@indicine you said more screen doesn’t matter more collection so according to you if bb got 1200 screens like Haider it would collected 27cr right?to your second Haider should have releade in more screens i with my friends had planned long ago to watch Haider but it didin’t release in our city at all so Haider is affcted by the clash as bb,if Haider had a solo release it would have got minimum 2000 screens the first day collection would have been aroun 10cr.you said bb 1st say collected more than Haider’s weekend right?you are the only one who said there is not much audience for a film like Haider but to save bb you compared,i want to say the budget of Haider including promotion is 30cr while bb 140cr,the screen size of Haider is 1200 screens while for bb it is 4500 screens,the genre of both the movie is completely different.then compare Haider’s weekend with bb’s weekend so according your logic bb should have been collected 4times than Haider and lifetime should be 4 times than that of Haider,let’s see what happens
highest grossing films in 2014.
pk-278

@punk so fox star adding haiders screen count in their report. So automatically collection if those mention above too devided between bang bang and Haider. U r beating Akki fans in terms of manipulations.
@punk for ur kind info there are little more than 5000 screen in India for Hindi movie only and more 2000 for regional. Bang bang released on 3350 screen for Hindi virsion and around 800 screen in other languages. But indicine giving collection for all languages but considering screen count for Hindi only.
@Hrfans
Didnt you know the fact about clash before release…Accept it that BB is trending poorly…It should have done minimum 27-28cr on sunday but it failed to do so
One request to all HR fans, don’t spend time on Internet only and don’t download pirated copy of their idol’s movie. This time please buy ticket and rush theater to watch Bang Bang. Concentrate more on Hrithik’s present project rather than future projects. Already, Hrithik become a laughing stock in trade; please don’t humiliate him anymore. At least make sure, 5th day of Bang Bang better than Kick’s 6th day.
This is Greek God’s megastar power.

Bollywood Debutant Director with Salman cast movie as below:
1. MPK (1989) Sooraj R.Barjatya; ATBB
2. Love (1991) Suresh Krissna; HIT
3. Auzaar (1997) Sohil Khan; Average
4. Bandhan (1998) K.murali Mohana Rao; HIT
5. KKHH (1998) Karan Johar; ATBB (according to INDICINE, Filmfare, Wikipedia and etc)
6. HTHS hum tumhare hai sanam (2003) K.S.adiyaman; HIT

10. Bodyguard (2011) Siddique; Blockbuster
11. Dabbang 2 (2012) Arbaaz Khan; Blockbuster

Most of Salman film is debutant director.And also have flop film of salman with debutant director but not problem coz Salman helping that director.
Pls NOTE: I mention only BOLLYWOOD DEBUTANT DIRECTOR not Globalwood.
Have any ACTORS such as record with debutant director???
Khantards are bullshits…
Even at the time of Besharam last year we saw that…though i agree that the film was a bad one but still there was too much negativity surrounding it.
Besharam had a parody scene of RK singing DDLJ song which infuriated srk fans..while also had a mention of CHULBUL which outraged sallu fans..
Also the fact that YJHD did so well,Khantards sensed him as a potential threat.
Same with Bang Bang this year.
Overseas markets will take the film sail through profits but domestic business is a bit of a concern due mediocre trending
For those SRKians who hated Hrithik & BB…
CE had an opening weekend worldwide gross of 159.5 Crores..
Bang Bang had an opening weekend of 83.98 Cr Nett… It implies Domestic Gross of 119.97 Cr…
So Worldwide weekend gross is 161.11 Cr….
Considering Clash & low screen count (Negative points) nullifies 4 day weekend & extra holidays (Plus Points) Bang Bang has effectively broke CEs record….
RIP HATERS..
PS – All the above figures are trade figures.. Result is similar in case if Producer figures…
@Sht Stop ur Bullshit, Most anticipated movie im South india recently got a screen count of 1035.. (1450 including International & North india) and u expect a Hindi movie dubbed into telugu to get 800 screens… Height of Nonsense..
@Arjun Kapoor
Are you mad
A movie has done 175 cr worldwide just in 4 days and u r calling it a failure.
Mentally retarded person
It will be a blockbuster in overseas market. It is going on at a much faster rate than Kick. If only it was a solo release in India…..
kick was collected low because of ramzan otherwise kick would top with 50cr collection as you see jai ho is 2nd highest with 34cr so if jai ho kind of desi masala collected that then it is underperformance of bang bang in overseas also but bang bang will not cross kick life time records in overseas for sure in india it is already sinking so overall average.
Why in the world do these people publish gross collections as it only creates confusion? They should only publish net collections after deducting all the taxes paid as the taxes will always go in government’s account and that will not help the movie to become hit.. It’s the net collections that only matter.
So, the BOI fans have arrived again! I didn’t see them during Kick and chances of them showing up during HNY is also minimal. Don’t know why some people have double standard. Don’t know why they post it on a site which itself doesn’t believe in BOI. I know there are not many, only few of them whose life is dedicated to troll people.
How many times I have to tell BOI is not certified by government? It is not official site for Bollywood. They never post actuals, only producers can know the actuals.
Some people have started calling it as a “trade” site and figures quated by them as “trade” figures. Do you guys even know the meaning of “trade”? Guys like Taran Adarsh, Komal Nahta etc are also trade analysts. Why not blindly follow them as well? Can’t you guys stick to only one source like all the sensible people do?
BTW, it’s literally impossible to pay sites like Box Office Mojo and Deadline, still I wouldn’t be surprised if someone comes up with something like they have manipulated overseas collections LOL.
@babaji. Don’t be ignorant and hypocritical fox star themselves saying its worldwide 4700 and in India 4200 then y r u denying it. It is better to ask fox star for clarification. Jthj and SOS released on 4600 screen combine in 2012. And Telugu Tamil Malayalam have seperate market where no Hindi movie get released other than dub.
These moronic hr fans know better than the distributors themselves…fox star studios is itself reporting all india screencount is 4200 then how the hell hr fans calling it just 3300. Believe hr fans bb has underperformed big time n should finish within 180 crs mark..? ?lolol
@nipun nd @babaji stop compairing bb with kick nd his review
