Bollywood 2015: Hits, Flops, Blockbusters, Disasters!

Highlights of Bollywood 2015:

Highest Opening Day: Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan holds the record for the highest opening day collections of 2015 (27.25 cr). No other film has come close to challenging the first day total set by the film. Salman’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo is almost certain to beat that total when it releases on the Diwali holiday later this year. It’ll be interesting to see if Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale beats the 27.25 cr figure to take the highest opening non-holiday for 2015. It’ll be difficult because ‘Bajirao Mastani’ is releasing on the same day, which also happens to be a working day.

Highest Opening Weekend: Salman’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan also holds the record for the highest first week this year. The film collected Rs 102.6 crore in its first 3 days. PRDP has more than a good chance of surpassing this figure, even though Sunday doesn’t come in the first 3 days (PRDP releases on Thursday, 12th November). The only other non-Salman film that has a chance is SRK’s Dilwale.

Highest First Week: It’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan again. The film collected Rs 184.65 cr in its first week. The outstanding word-of-mouth helped big time. Both PRDP and Dilwale will have to carry similar reports to challenge the first week total of the Kabir Khan directed film.

Highest Grosser: Will Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 321 crore) remain the biggest grosser of 2015? Or will the two other obvious choices go on be the highest grosser of 2015. That’s the big question as we head towards two of the most important months of the year – with two major weekends in Diwali and Christmas.

  • Biggest Success - Bajrangi Bhaijaan (All Time Blockbuster)
  • Biggest Disaster - Bombay Velvet (lost nearly 100 crore of its investment)
  • Costliest film – Bombay Velvet (Cost of production only)
  • Star of the year - Salman Khan
  • Best Debut – Kapil Sharma

  • Srk last grossing film oso clash with slb film sawariya n now Dilwale clashing with BM, History is going to repeat

  • @Joseph BM 190cr, are you mad? If BM get solo release then it also not cross 150cr due to clash BM remain bellow 100cr. And PRDP 350cr Dilwale 175cr mark my words PRDP won’t cross 175cr

  • @xzone,YOU r saying if SRK fans start bashing then only we can bash SRK Otherwise we cant bash SRK,BUT SRK FANS CAN BASH AAMIR from front RIGHT????
    Dont you think this is Double-Standard from your side,Dont you think this is not sensible comment.
    I agree YOU never bashed AAMIR,even you can check any article I never bashed SRK & there are so many AAMIR fans,they never bashed SRK.
    BUT If I’ll remove you & @challa
    from the list all other SRK fans bashed AAMIR unnecessarily.(YOU can check any articles on AAMIR).
    Almost 6-7 out of 10 SRK FANS bashed AAMIR while there are only 1-2 out of 10 AAMIR fans Bashed SRK.
    We are not againt SRK,We r against SRK fans Because they have been bashing AAMIR from DHOOM 3 unnecessarily.
    If you r really sensible fan of SRK then plz tell them if they will not bash AAMIR,I can assure you no AAMIR FANS will bash SRK.

  • @Hyedrabadi eNViouS (NVS) aka hahaha 03:20 pm/ 03:21 pm : The same can be conveyed by a single comment, isn’t it? Or while posting the comments, some judwa kind of creature enters into you who provokes you to post the same shit twice. ?? :P
    Ok I’ll reply you in your style ;-)
    So Hahaha, criminal was coming after complete 1.5 years with a masala movie, and his previous movie was a blockbuster. So everyone including his fans were waiting for that movie hahaha. On the other hand, SRK was trying a highly risky venture hahaha with a poor story line hahaha. Despite of that , Ra-one collected 200cr+(worldwide) way back in 2011 hahaha. Unlike 2014 released flop ho hahaha. Only criminal fans like you can compare a sci-fi with a masala action movie and a 2011 released with 2014 released movie hahaha.
    As far as clashes and holiday releases are concerned, no one is as coward as your criminal hahaha.
    After “Ek tha criminal” he waited for 1.5 years as no festive dates were available hahaha. And when he was hopeless and sohail started bugging him, he had no option except releasing his crap on non-holiday hahaha. And rest all , as they say, is history hahaha.
    Again, the most recent example is, Multan. When he came to know that there is no festive date available, he wontedly pushed it for Eid though shooting is yet to be started hahaha.
    So who is the real coward you Hyderabadi?? Hahaha

  • @xzone, I have been here since last year, but I saw you since last couple of weeks, that’s why I said so. May be you had taken a break or so. But when you were not here, there were not just 5 or 10 that I just mentioned but even way more srk fans including @Deepu, @sakhi, @vikram and many others were the ones who used to bash Aamir even when aamir fans were not much active. Still I will take one last chance for them to stop, if they still won’t than I will be forced to bash srk. So I wont initiate to bash srk from now on, but if they will, than I will reply them. Deal?

  • Another heart wrenching article for SRK fans !!!!!!!! They keep denying facts and keep dreaming but Indicine keeps proving them wrong with facts about Salman’s success !!!!!!!!!!!!! And shamelessly they keep visiting same Indicine !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-p

  • Look this moron @xzone he is frustrated for not seeing halku’s name in the list. He is spouting multiple comments on each Salman page and threatening Aamir fans. Abey lallu, we have already made Ugly, Fugly, Tugly out of some srk fans, What will you do ? Teri aukaat kya hai ??? Don t pretend to be a saint with a hidden agenda praising Aamir. I know you are fan of phatto actor who knows how to manipulate things and make his fans believe in them !!!!!!!!!!!!! First give this gyaan to yourself and your lunatic mates then come and try giving gyaan to other actor fans !!!!!!!!!

  • @xzone
    I also don’t bash SRK unless these retard SRK fans like sss, the phenomenal idiot, iamdhakkan bash Aamir unnecessarily.

    After Aamir, my favorite has always been SRK.
    But, the movies he has done after 2010(after MNIK) have forced me to criticize him. There hasn’t been a single watchable movie other than Don2 of his. And I know you too agree on that.

    I don’t like people bashing any actor but if they’ll force me by putting up wrong facts, calling names, I’ll throw them outta window.

  • Why do all these so called fans of actors make fun of other actors’ physicalities?

    SRK fans make fun of Aamir’s height and call Salman Gorilla just bcoz he has that body builder’s body. I ask why?
    God gave Aamir that height, Salman made that body after years of hardwork.

    All Salman fans and some Aamirians make fun of SRK’s wrinkles and fake 8 packs. I ask why?
    We all will be old one day. We also will have wrinkles. There’s no need to make fun of that.

    I have also seen fans(mostly Akkians) making fun of Hrithik’s 6th finger. What the hell?
    What’s the need for it?

    Are all of us physically perfect? Do we have no physical deformity? If yes, why are all of us not superstars and why they are superstars?
    Compare box office collections but don’t make fun of these things, I ask fans of all actors.
    #Peace

  • Welcome Back did not beat the collection of Baby, just because you have power does not mean you can change collections.

  • @nvs,TRUTH bites hard,jail ho a big flop.any verdict below HIT VERDICT is a flop for THE SRKIANS.got that you born oxymoron?????also forgot veer—-disaster flop in the same year 2010,flop star fan’s disaster comments,rofl.

    @shoe-chit,actually I didn’t like perfaketionist’s chameleon personality and his fake stardom as well as chamchagiri of some other actor also same personalities of his fans like you,that’s why I always bashed his 2rs fake stardom and fans like you.

    @tej gourav,believe me nothing is in the hands of koyla,he is just good for nothing.Same scrappy koyla acting with liquor drunken eyes(nothing new with no change of expression),so what’s big deal if some new comers of pkp2 beated that Wife’s success beaten most disaster giving star of Bollywood crappy koyla,so what’ sbig deal instead of that, you should feel proud that he is still existing in this industry for no reason.

    @hrithik,but who is bigger shameless than you school drop out,who bashed heavily in many articles and claimed/cried heavily indicine is a KING KHAN’S SITE,still why you’re still visiting her elike a shameless retard?????did you sold all of your shame ?????,ROFL.what a hypocrite you’re,ROFL.

  • @Syed Ahmed Khan 6:46 pm : SO according to you, if Criminal is enjoying success, then only his fans have the right to stay at indicine and rest all should leave (as they are shameless for you) ?
    Well, I can’t expect a better logic than this from a criminal fan.
    Keep it up !!

  • Prdp- 300+ cr!! – atbb
    Dilwale 240 cr!! – bb

  • @Indicine : You missed this 9:34 pm comment of mine. Please publish :

    ****

    @Aamir-the megastar 5:23 pm : You took my comment wrongly. See my reply to Suchit. I have clearly told that let’s not get into the debate who started it first, but stop it from now on. Whether its SRK fans or Amir fans , they should not start at first. And if one side starts, then other side will have to be ready for the reward. But being an SRK fan, I ensure you that I won’t bash Amir until I am provoked till the core. Also, as you have seen, I have already requested my fellow SRKians not to bash Amir until his fans provoke to do so. Let’s see how it goes. But one assurance I am giving you today, if any SRK fan comes and bash Amir unnecessarily , I will join you to bash that fan back.
    But yes, at the same time , please be careful about the chameleon IDs, who will just exist for a day and then, will vanished. If you see some comments from unknown IDs like kt,pt,ct,ab,cd,pq,rs , just ignore them. Those are criminal fans, ready to instigate a fan war for their own benefit . If any known SRK fan does the same (e.g. sss,iamAKN, The phenom, challa and others), then I will be accountable for the same.
    And yes, for god sake , don’t count me in sensible visitors :D
    Because I have seen what people are doing here behind the mask of ‘sensibility’ . I would like to be counted ‘insensible’ fans, so that I can post my comments from my heart and not from my mind. Because to become sensible, first thing you will have to do is, start using your brain , which unfortunately I don’t have ;-)

    @Suchit 6:33 pm : Sure, let’s closely monitor who is spreading all these filth and also, go through my reply to ‘Amir-the megastar’ once. And as I said, be aware of chameleons.

    @SRKians : Again I would request, Specially @sss,@iamAKN,@The phenom , please stop bashing Amir fro now on until his fans are provoking to do so. Please don’t allow criminal fans to enjoy ‘salmir’ propaganda which sadly, they created for their own ease and comfort.
    ***

  • @Syed Ahmed Khan 7:00 pm : Hahaha so much insecurity started from now itself? This is, when I have just revealed the hidden agenda of you coward criminal fans. The day is not very far , when Amir fans will come to know about the reality. And yes, I don’t need the support of any fan (including SRK fans). I am alone enough to shut the stinking mouths of morons like you. So this is not to gain the support of Amir fans and nothing is fake. I respect Amir, and I do it from heart. Not like you moron, who sees Amir as a great actor until you get support for criminal from Amir fans and once it is over, you will bash him. Should I post that comment , where you addressed an Amir fan ‘Eric’ by saying “Tingulal k Tingu fan’ ?
    Its there on records. If you wish I will post it here.
    And yeah, all actor fans , be aware of this chameleon and hypocrite ‘Syed Ahmed Khan’. He can degrade himself till any level, will face the humiliation , but he will continue his blabbering. Many times I have seen him getting kicked by SRK fans like The Phenom, iamAKN and sss. Still he is in a position to blabber. See his shamelessness.

    And I am not a fool like you, who pretends to be an intellectual but in reality, he is the most hypocrite lunatic over here. I am not pretending to be a saint, neither am I. For you criminal fans, I am someone who will always keep on blowing your lungis without any hesitation. And there is no threat etc hidden in my comment to Amir fans. It was just an attempt to bridge the gaps between SRK and Amir fans created by criminal fans like you, so stop being insecure and learn how to defend your criminal on his own (without taking Amir’s name Lol).
    Enough of your salmir propaganda. Start counting your days now.
    And last but not the least, come out of Bangalore, you will know what my ‘Aukaat’ is ;-)
    It’s very easy to judge someone’s ‘Aukaat’ on web. But in actual world , its very tough my son.

  • @Xzone hahahahahaha….u looks too much desperate…Its abt respect man…salman fans respect Amir so never bash him…Amir fans love Salman …but ur insecure srk & his cheap fans always thinks abt no 1 Spot & d crown…simple example is srk fans hate ajay bcoz of son of sardar clash…hate sanjal leela bcoz of BM….hates ranveer bcoz of BM…u people dont have mutual respect….

    jai ho & Ra-1 put a analysis how jaiho semihit & Ra-1 hit?????????

    @hydrabad mechanic akka sss u hakla fans doesnt know any thing below hit?????bhai u people even doesnt know anything above hit…blockbluster,ATBB u r nt used to it ….ur hakla is only a hit star…super hit stars r called superstar…blockbluster stars r called megastar…ATBB stars r called LEGENDS

    Star-Hakla
    Superstar-Hritik
    Megastar-Salman
    Legend -Amir Khan

  • @xzone : If you don’t believe in Indicine rankings then don’t visit the site. Simple !!!!! Only 5 years of reign is enough smash the entire YRF/Dharma made success of H@klu !!!!!!! :-p

  • @Kamal 10:00 am : & i don’t know why some bhojpuritards are talking abt decades struggler Khan when in last 7/8 years none of his film become ATHG ( whereas SRK gave 3 ), forget last 7 years even since his debut film Biwi ho to aisi till now he has not given a single ATHG with a lead role ?

    still his/her fans talk abt breaking record & comparing all decades struggler wid all decades Ruler?

    Salman has neither past nor present. if he had/have something, that’s 2 decades struggling years.

    @NVS 10:29 am : your this dream will not come true.. SRK has already given 2 ATBBs in a single year ( DDLJ & Karan Arjun ) , but don’t worry, check history may be you’ll find Criminal’s name in ”the list of giving back to back lowest grossing disaster films in a single year ” ( countless times ) .

    @Rohitene 12:23 pm : Like Don vs JEM.. or CDI vs Marigold/Kaafila.. or OSO vs Saawariya etc ?

    @xzone : Hahaha.. your every comment especially ”6:00 pm” comment to NVS is damn hilarious.

    Btw what you have said i will remember. but Honestly speaking i was on social network since MNIK but i ignored each & every thing of haters till 2013 even during Ra.1 time too, thought they will change but trust me they have crossed every limit, I love SRK (even more than my own self), can’t even bear a single word or thing against him still ignored as much as it was possible but at the end, i lost my hope.. what i’m now his bec of those haters who have based SRK & still bashing , otherwise i don’t even like to spend or even waste one second of my life for something else except SRK, & wasting my time for such actors/ppl which i can’t even compare with SRK, is a far thing . if I bash Aamir and his fans bec of his fans, same is the case for Salman and his fans .

    Check my twitter ID, since some active aamir fans have stopped targeting SRK, i’ve stopped it too but that’s not the case here. If aamir fans will stop bashing SRK, even without asking i’ll stop too.

  • @Komal Nahi Nahata aka Ishan Gulati: Don’t put unneccessary blame on Akki fans,whom did u saw making fun of Hrithik’s 6th finger??
    Akshay and Hrithik fans hardly fight here and even when they fight there is never any mention of physicality!!!
    These are mostly Salman fans like @ViratKohli making fun of HR.

  • @Babaji stop lying. Your mates like @sunny chachi always bash hrithik. Dont you read his comments? Whenever indicine praises hrithik and calls him a big superstar or bigger than akshay than @sunny starts bashing him. Even @nipun does the same when there was an article about best film of 2015 or something like that in June, than there was a huge fan war between akshay and hrithik fans. Haven’t you seen them? Now stop acting like a saint. I am aware of everyone in indicine. I was not actively commenting for last few months, but I was definitely active reading the new updates and I also used to read everyone’s comments.

  • @sss, keep showing your cheap standard as that’s all you can do. I wont go down to your level anymore as I at least have something called self respect which you lack. If I say something, I dont turn away. Learn something from @xzone and @challa if you have something called shame. I have stopped bashing Srk, because I am man of my words unlike you.

  • @sunny can you see the difference , I don’t abuse I don’t pass racist remarks ,I don’t just jump into a article and bash Akshay. You have been doing this for months!,*Always bringing Ajay name so you see how it feels? My own caseis different I am very diplomatic with my comments and they make sense or are supported with real facts but u? Ajay is that, ajay is this, ajay shd not be called superstar, koyla etcetc. Believe me had you not started all these you wouldn’t have seen such remarks. Even though true. What’s wrong? Frustrated never always proud!,what I said wrong? That most people top movies you see them mention drishyam and baby. Am I wrong? Akshay highest opener ever verdict is the same with off beat Ajays one of lowest opening ever this decade? Were they not not semi hit? It’s index comparism according to what’s on ground. If you doubt it then reverse everything back if not ignore me. I don’t go to Akki article and bash rather compliment which you know. You go to Ajay article an abuse him? So did I call you a genuine frustrated lad? No never. So live in peace and let box office allow us to translate that in a comment form. You go ahead bash Ajay while I deduce the notions. Mind your business and smile okay!! Wasting energy to tell me to stop not wise at all! Try and reduce your abusive comments esp on him then you see no one will speak even the fact. Cheers Sunny nothing personal only filmi!!!
