Saturday is going to be an interesting day, as the battle between Dilwale and Bajirao Mastani seems to have gotten closer. While the morning shows of Dilwale on Saturday were a little lower as compared to Friday, Bajirao Mastani is maintaining yesterdays level and some centres are actually performing better than they did on Friday.
While Dilwale is a film targeted both at the multiplex and single-screen audience, Bajirao Mastani is performing well only at multiplexes – which also means the business of the film will peak towards the end of the day today.
Bajirao Mastani could sneak ahead of Dilwale in the state of Maharashtra and even in cities like Kolkata and Bangalore, the gap has reduced quite considerably – even though Dilwale is still leading.
The percentage of growth for the two films on Saturday, will be something to watch out for. A positive trend will be important for both films.
Meanwhile, Dilwale hasn’t got the kind of release that a big film like it deserves. Back in 2012, it was Yash Raj Films that booked theatres for Jab Tak Hai Jaan using Ek Tha Tiger which released a few months before. Now, it was Eros International that has managed to get quite a few major single screens courtesy Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
It’s not that Bajirao Mastani has benefitted by releasing in these single-screens, as the occupancy levels were very low on Friday, but it has successfully dented the business of Dilwale in these areas. When a film doesn’t get a release in prime areas, it makes a significant dent on business.
In a subtle way, Shah Rukh Khan himself made public his disappointment on not getting enough theatres, when he tweeted “What to do not enough theaters. See it tomorrow please” in response to someone who couldn’t get tickets for the film.
Bajirao Mastani too hasn’t got what it deserves, even though the film has performed very well on Day 1 considering the clash. With a solo release, the film would have probably been closer to the 20 crore mark.
look at haters spreading negativity around dilwale for nothing
without even watching the movie
if you support bm you should know that this should make 15 cr plus to become hit and this impossible its budget is high 125 cr lol so calm down
look at these stupid who say srk without deepika is nothin
you moron ur deepika in front of srk made just 12 cr
while srk made almost doubled her despite the clash and nnegativity and forced critic bad reviews and controversy
u indians realy dont deserve srk
a critic confessed that he was under pressure to give srk bad movie review
Srk highly under estimated SLB’s BM & now he got his treat.
Mr.Srk every day is not Sunday, so stop being so proud of yourself, it’s very easy to blame on non-availability of tickets for movie failure but its not a fact.
So stop spreading fake rumours.
All the best for Bajirao Mastani…. Har Har Mahadev…
dilwali +3000+3500
my shah rukh khan

@Cheenai Ka Chindimay :-
bro even 200cr is looking tough for #Doomarnewale n u r talking about KICK(233cr) which is out of reach first break u’r own Chennai Depress(227cr) record then talk about KICK and what u r telling me to wait for 15 days really??? after 10 days movies collection will be in single digits bcoz of -ve wom… hope it run for 15 days bcoz there r too much negativity against #Doobmarnewale even in Audience as well as in political parties bcoz of u’r idols dumb statement on intolerance !!!
If u have guts then talk to me after lifetime comes !!!
Some Facts Where U R Wrong ?
*Despite a non-holding release ‘Jai Ho’ manages to collect 116cr which is greater than u’r buddha idols some festive solo releases Don 2 n Ra.1 n what u’r comparing Doobmarnewale with Jai Ho??? itne bure din aagaye kya?? atleast see the diff. between starcaste
*U r talking about clash with BM so u already accept the Fact that BM is bigger n better movie than CARWALE n What if bhai has clash with BM then it will not do even 100cr lol 1st of all there is no one in the industry who has guts to release his film with Salman bhai even Hollywood scared to release there films with Salman bhai n Aamir khan recent ex. is Spectre which was postponed bcoz of PRDP
*U’r talking about Salman bhai without E.D.X will not able to break the record?? atleast he breakes numerous lifetime records on E.D.X but what about Deshdrohi he will not manages to break even a single lifetime record and funny thing is he is chasing his own CE record from last 2 yrs.so better u should not talk about E.D.X bcoz even releasing films on E.D.X with so called slam tours n heavy promotion haklu maharaj fails to beat any Lifetime record…Shame Shame
*for u’r info Bodyguard score 21cr opening on 2800 screens back n 2011 if u have somewhat shame or self respect then u will not talk about opening’s now
*better compare u’r idol with Akshay Kumar even Akshay Kumar is bigger in stardom than u’r hakla bcoz on non-holiday u’r hakla yet to enter the 100cr club
*And best of luck for Doobmarnewale hope it will come close to the collection of ETT(199cr) 2012 which is looking real tough !!!
