Box Office Highlights so far in 2015

The first quarter of 2015 has been dull for the industry. The Top 5 superstars were missing from action, even though Ranbir Kapoor was seen in this year’s biggest Hindi opener ‘Roy’.

The biggest grosser of the year – Akshay Kumar’s Baby was also one of the most critically acclaimed movies of the year. The film fell short of the 100 crore club, but did well in major cities and circuits like Mysore.

    These are the confirmed BLOCKBUSTERS

    Gabbar Is Back
    Hamari Adhuri Kahani

  • @hrithik, if prdp collects as much as brothers this year, u should be happy!!!!
    If bb and prdp collects above 200 crore u should be happy.
    It is not aamir movie to sustain well …

  • i have watched gabbar’s and bobay velvet’s trailers. So i make predictions for these Two.
    Gabber is back lifetime : 80 crore to 118 crore.
    Bombey velvet lifetime: 60 crore to 90 crore … do not except much from it.
    1st 100 crore will be bhajrangi bhaijaan.

  • @the phenom

    Yes Jai Ho went horrible wrong but bhai has accepted responsibility for it falling way short of expectations but our King has not accepted his part in Crappy New Year falling way way short of expectations. He infact has put all the blame on some mythological medieval king Charlie for not bringing the 300cr storm…!

  • Since everyone is giving their predictions,let me give top
    My prediction:

    Gabbar is back:135crs
    Bombay velvet:75crs
    Bajrangi bhaijaan:240-250crs
    Drishyam:70-80crs
    Brothers:150-160crs
    PRDP:205-210crs
    Dilwale:260-270crs

  • Top5 grosser of 2015
    1 Dilwale 275cr plus
    2 Bajrangi 205 to 215cr
    3 Brothers 180 to 200cr
    4 Prdp 140 to 160cr
    5 Jagga jasus 120cr

  • Dilwale is strong contender to break the record of pk if it is accepted like chennai express or golmal3

  • @babaji, akki fan agree with u…
    i hope brothers become 2nd highest grossing movie after dilwale.
    no chance for bb and prdp to gross 200 crore.
    i hope brothers collect 200 crore by any means.
    i hope gabber collects 100 crore+.
    all the best akki from a srk die hard fan.

  • @ indicine, how can you say that Baby is the costliest film, if you are including Fast and furious 7 in the list and mentioning that it has highest opening day, opening weekend and opening week in 2015, THEN it should also be the costliest film also, its budget is around $185 million, that comes up to be around Rs 1200 crores, BABY’S budget at the max is around 75 crores, that is a fraction, to be precise 6% of Fast and furious 7

  • some sallu and aamir fans are saying that hera pheri 3 and bajrao mastani will clash with dilwale. lolsssss?…
    i cannot stop laughing… we are ready for any clash whether that is hera pheri 3 or bajrao mastani.
    we are not afraid at all … !!!
    we also want fan to release on eid 2015 to put an end to our bhai’s career.???

  • @javed : Oh really ?? Dilwale will collect 1470 crs in india and 7000 crs in WW and BB and PRDP will struggle to reach 200 crs on festival release. #Logic by Srkian !!!!!

  • I’m no wonder!!! If sarkar fans predict dilwale for 800cr domestic and WW 8000Cr. Hats of you sarkar fans……
    Bb flop
    Prdp flop now happy srk fans… cheers srk fans

  • @hrithik, if bb and prdp becomes the highest grossing movie of 2015 ,,, i will admit that sallu is 100 times better and bigger star…!!!
    but if dilwale becomes the highest grossing movie of 2015???
    what sort of excuse will u give???
    will u admit that srk is 1000 times better and bigger than sallu, will u ???
    this is my betting..* challenge me priboy!
    what if dilwale smashes pk’s record!!!
    what kind of excuse will u give ???
    u sallu and aamir fans always will say it is becoz of deepika and rohit shetty..
    just keep crying….!!!!
    in 2015; there will be solid demonstration who the bigger star is!!!

  • @ Navin :
    HNY grossed 205 cr in domestic and 381 cr worldwide .
    Still you say it ‘ fell well short of expectations ‘ ???
    don’t know how much you expect from a SRK-film … lol

  • @javed : Better back off else Don 2 returns to haunt you this Christmas. You may have to quit Indicine as well. I am not over confident but have literally seen some srk fans predicting, challenging, betting n falling flat on face to vanish. One example of loser is @sss he lost the bet but still shamelessly wandering on indicine. It was my good gesture to let him off !!!!!!!!

  • @javed, u have been dreaming for highest grosser of the year since 8years. But we all know very that will never gonna happen. Btw, keep dreaming afterall u can’t do anything beyond that.

  • @hrithik, and tiger. i am scared of u people!
    seriously, i am waiting for bb to do sth that i have not done in my entire life.
    just wait!! we will take revenge for hny.
    i have a group in facebook lallutard’s haters. i have 3000 loyal haters fan base.
    we will spread nagitivity for bb like no hater has ever spread.. just wait and watch! we are srkian, hrithikian, akkian.
    this is not threatening! and i will see if ur bb and prdp crosses 200 crore club.??

  • @romance, exactly dude nobody can dare to clash with a rohit shetty movie. Also u r defending by using rohit shetty’s name not king’s name that proves rohit shetty is way bigger star than our king.

  • So far the highest grossing movie in India is the Tamil film ‘I’ it has collected 229cr worldwide gross!!!

  • @hritik try to understand between rohit shetty n kabir khan. ETT scoor big because of salman kat hype, bb is a original not remake n salman with out remake is big zero, therefore dificult to cross kick. N prdp either become hahk or mpkdh so i don’t want to comment about that. Dilwale will cross 250cr in a worst case sinareo as its a masala famali entertainer, if it is as good as ce then 300cr sure, During don2 xmas fall in sunday like jai ho. Dilwale will not become highest grosser if prdp surprise,

  • Ok indicine yes it is a bigger success then baby bt I mean What @Baap of all khans commented that it should also include in most costliest film . Right na ?

  • Why put shamitabh in worst film or disaster one as it did average business not being a costly film why not dirty politics n other films who flopped badly
