A new actor is born with barfi…
@Mind you..there’s a lot of difference between a star and an actor…
Hats off RANBIR….take a bow..
gud going barfi…
people only going to watch movies not aliens either its star or actor or performer movie
Great film and it is terrific that it has received great response at the BO.Ek tha Tiger has the highest weekend record(3 days) but RA.One still hold the record of highest weekend collections if Tamil and Telugu Versions are included.
ranbir is star thts why barfi got gud opening an excellent movie Iqbal may not open this much big becoz no star and shreyas talpade is not star just an capable performer
Hoping for the Best!
Movies like Barfii need to do well to keep ‘Good Cinema’ alive between all this madness for remakes and plotless action comedies..
ranbir is star kid like hritik and media is backin is there clearly..rockstar is such crap still got gud reviews..barfi is gud hats off anurag basu the real hero
Oh god…ranbir not star? comin frm leadin family kapoors..just imagine if any newconer done tht zero publicity&15 crore weekend thts all
Nice movie a award winning performance..
I don,t like the movie 1st half is good but second half is so boring i was sleeping at 2nd half also story is stretched at some places which make it boring.2/5
youngest superstar of bollywood.even aamir khan did not get this kind of opening with taare zameen par,
sharukh khan with mnik,hrithik with guzaarish
@kumar, yeh u r right. But the actors u have mentioned above redefined what is the meaning of acting.
I TOLD SO…..when Indicine published low predictions..I always expected 33cr .
Monday I read is 6.5cr..That would be OUT OF THE WORLD…
I am sure..if heroine had’nt released..it would have done close to 100cr..
Well. Aisi films Boxoffice se aaage hoti hain
@Aashkaran, you should do the box-office predictions next! On a serious note, no one in the trade expected such numbers. Extremely positive WOM has helped, otherwise weekend would be 8 – 8.5 – 10. And that itself would have exceeded expectations.
Ranbir and ileana luks cute n fresh together,prianca too luks cute- hats off to entire cast of barfi,lovely movie
LOL..sorry..but I always knew it would do that much..from its first promo it had positivity around it..plus Ranbir is decent crowd puller all it needed was massive a WOM which I kept in mind when I thought of predicting numbers..
Now Days…Good Films Never Fail..
in your faces losers(who ever said barfi would be a flop!!!!)
salman is roaring on box office still

Salman Khan can play both Shahrukh and Aamir!
One should think twice before speaking anything about superstar Salman Khan. If you dare to take panga with bhai, you are in for a danger. But, filmmaker Karan Johar was possibly not aware of this. Karan had recently said that he will end up in the hospital, if he does a film with all the three Khans in Bollywood. Johar’s statement did not go down well with Salman and he did not leave a chance to hit back at the filmmaker.
According to a leading daily, Salman Khan, during an interview said, “I am very happy that you met Karan before meeting me. First you have to tell me, which three Khans are you speaking about? Bolne mein kya jaata hai! Anyway, I can play all the three Khans together.” He added, “I will don Shahrukh’s RA.One look, my Dabangg look and Aamir’s Ghajini look.”
We hope the two other Bollywood Khans are listening to this. No wonder, many of us believe that Salman is a very unique actor. Not only that he delivers great acting skills in his movies, also he is known for his great style and attitude.
Shirin Pharhad …+Joker+Raaz3+Barfi+Heroine+OMG (worldwide collection) can not cross (ETT worldwide collection)
This is Salman
Can Ek Tha Tiger join 200 crore Club?
Present figure 199.11 cr. nett.
