Dilwale has collected around Rs 22 crore and Bajirao Mastani has collected around 12 crore on its opening day at the box office, as per estimates based on collections from a few centres and circuits from India. Note: Final collections will be posted in the morning.
The film has performed extraordinarily well in West Bengal, where the first day business is set to be around 5 times more than Bajirao Mastani. Shah Rukh Khan is the king of the Bengal circuit, the advance booking here is excellent for the entire weekend.
The other ‘class’ circuit where SRK’s ‘massy’ films are doing well is Mysore and even other South states like Kerala and Tamilnadu. The collections in some of these South Indian centres are comparable to big films which release on national holidays without any competition.
Dilwale has surpassed Bajirao Mastani in the Gujarat / Saurashtra belt and the gap between the two films is surprising because Sanjay Leela Bhansali films, especially Ram Leela, perform very well in these circuits. The occupancy for the morning shows in Gujarat for Bajirao Mastani came as a huge disappointment, in fact even Dilwale was underperforming, but both films picked up towards the end of the day.
In Maharashtra, both films were neck and neck. Bajirao Mastani was ahead at quite a few centres, while Dilwale was leading at others. It was the only state where the competition was too close to call. In Rajasthan too, Bajirao Mastani was closer than expected.
In Bihar, Assam, C.I, C.P Berar.. it was Dilwale that was leading. At single-screens in general, it was a one horse race with Dilwale dominating and Bajirao Mastani remaining poor throughout the day.
Overall, it was fantastic day for film business for the industry. Remember, it was a non-holiday, so both films are expected to show good growth in business over the weekend.
The big plus for Dilwale is going to be its genre, entertainment value and mass appeal. Bajirao Mastani on the other hand, is not going to surrender like Saawariya did in 2007. The reports are mixed to positive for both films, which is good news for the trade in general.
@Imran and @charsi, both of you shut up, no srk and salman, only aamir is the biggest megastar of bollywood. no one comes close to aamir in megastardom.
Some langoor returns claims Bm released in 1200 he forgot his master eros claimed it released in 2200 plus screens and blocked all SS in the country. Now langoor returns and master eros decide who is producer and tell us how many screens
Now this is called too much fun.
2012 dabang2 22 crore
2015 dilwale 22 crore
Both wer Christmas non holiday 3100 screen releases…
@broken remote control, my sense is still much ahead of retarded sarooktards. it was deepika who crossed 20 cr opening before srk with yeh jawani hai diwani. it was deepika who crossed 150 cr nett after aamir and salman. it’s deepika with whom srk’s highest and 2nd highest opening day records are safe. BM had no rohit shetty that’s why mealwaale leads, otherwise mealwale’s opening would have been as much if not lower as BM. so shut up.
@xzone, same way you should explain this same so called logic to @sss, @iamAKN and other retards who bark on aamir and salman’s opening collections. why don’t those morons admit that BB and PK released on none holiday and HNY released on new year holiday. stil they bark rubbish so why shouldn’t we pay back? according to queen fans, only they are allowed to behave what they want and others don’t have any authority? what kind of rule and how is it a rule?
Srk is loosing star power. Taking huge risk by accepting third class masala movie. Aisa hi chalta raha to bhai people will loose faith in u.
Dilwale will crash from Monday & from 25 it’s worldwide collection will drop by huge margin it will end at 180 cr.
Bm will get 40 cr weekend , 65 cr. Week
Lifetime 85-95 cr.
Both r called above average
Wait n watch
@aiz if u watch movies for entertainment than i can bet u won’t be dissapointed with dilwale
@Nipun returns
who told you screen difference is 1200??Many sources are claiming 2800 for dilwale & 2300 for BM.Just a difference of 500…Apni maths behtar karo dumbudha,,Haha kia name ha @babaji
Despite release with Dilwale , bajirao Mastani collected handsome collection . I have hopes from BM it will collect more than 100 crore . Har Har Mahadev .
Jiske haath mein ho Mahadev ki talwar , aashirwad ho Mahadev ka to kaise harayega . Har Har Mahadev .
@indicine
What is the actual figure of both movies?
Plz ….
My prediction
In recent scenario
First weekend of dilwale = 75-80 cr
Lifetime = 150
First weekend of BM = 45-50 cr
Lifetime = 115
In best scenario
Dilwale = 85-90cr
Lifetime = 170 cr
Bajirao mastani = 55-60cr
Lifetime = 125 cr
In worst scenario
Dilwale = 65-68
Lifetime = 130cr
Bajirao mastani = 35-38
Lifetime = 90crweekend
Word of mouth can change this
100% record Jodi become flop now
100% record of Varun first movie flop.
100% record of kirti senon first movie flop.

NOW SAY WHO IS BIGGEST MEGASTAR?NON OTHER THAN KING OF BOLLYWOOD—-BADSHAH/KING SRK .
DILWALE IS GETTING POSITIVE REVIEW from everywhere except some few critics who are obsessed with not a well made crap like bm.
My question do you really want so called good ratings to watch A MASALA MOVIE LIKE DILWALE.GO AND WATCH UNLIMITED ENTERTAINMENT YOU’LL GET,IT’S MY GUARENTEE.
@sush,we’re here.don’t try hard to show bm great we just because you want to take revenge.if you can support a shit like prdp then why couldn’t support a A HIGH CLASS WELL MADE MASALA ENTERTAINER LIKE DILWALE.
AUDIENCE REVIEW OF DILWALE>>>>>>>>bm.
For an example —-DILWALE IMDB(6.7)
bm imdb(6.2)
Now say,it’s THE PEOPLE has already decided DILWALE>>>>>>>>>>bm.so don’t try to support a crap like bm.
MY ADVISE TO PEOPLE not to listen any Hater’s suggestion and there is a high chance you’ll be betrayed at last if you’ll listen them.
Don’t spend your valuable money for piece of overacting statue like ranveer singha and please don’t ruin your CHRISTMAS.
WATCH DILWALE WITH YOUR FAMILY ,I can give guarentee you’ll again want to watch DILWALE for sure after watching IT.AND ONE MORE THING KING KHAN-SRK TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL,YOU WON’T BELIEVE EVEN HOW THIS MOVIE CAN SYRPRUSE YOU AND MADE YIUR CHRISTMAS HAPPY CHRISTMAS.
Final first day collection?
Alok Nath’s honest take about both these movies
A. On release date of both the films-
I feel Dilwale should have released on 18th and BM shd have taken any other date.I am not a SRK fan but for the sake of hindi film industry Dilwale had a better chance of utilizing the christmas holiday considering star cast, director and the genre. Even in best case BM wouldn’t have collected more than 20cr. on day and 65cr. over the weekend. On the other hand, Dilwale had serious chance of collecting 30cr+ and 100 cr over the weekend.
B. Movie Review:
BM is good but not great as Indicine said its no Baahubali. All movie goers do watch it once on big screen of multiplex for the grandeur, scale and acting.
Dilwale is a time pass movie made only to break opening records. Khichdi may provide something for everyone but not everything to any and at the end you will feel hungry.Watch it on a single screen with an intention to have a good time.
C. Box office prediction:
Dilwale will definitely collect much more than BM. I hope the gap is not too huge. If the gap is around 50 cr it would be a very good result for everyone associated with the movie.
Final words,
Dilwale- SRK you are a very capable actor pls stop working with Farah, Shetty etc.I will be waiting for your FAN and Raees.
Sanjay leela Bhansali- No one in hindi film industry can capture grandeur and art like you do but it would be nice to spend more time on story and screenplay.
Dilwale will be a block buster and BM will be a all time flop
Dilwale will cross up to 90 to 95 crore while brm will cross 40 to 45 crore but Dilwale is my favourite movie.
@sss well said bro. But these retard 2010 born idol fanatics will never get this in their head. Because their idol lose the clash even to the likes of akshay Kumar and ajay devgan. And to add icing on the cake, even ranbeer kapoor and fardeen khan also defeated him in clash. So it is clear that srk always won clash while Salman always lost clashes.
BAJIRAO MASTANI WILL BE SUPERHIT AND DILWALE WIL BE HIT.
Now in it’s 4th week, Dilwale has been alloted 7 daily shows in ALL OF MUMBAI. Bajirao Mastani’s corresponding number is 119 daily shows in Mumbai. Who won and who sucks!!!
