Dilwale Box Office Collections on 19 December: Day 2 Saturday

Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale has collected Rs 20.09 crore on its second day at the box office. The early estimate that we posted before anyone else on the internet, turned out to be closest to the actual collections.

The film has dropped by around 5% on Saturday. Several centres which come under the C.P Berar circuit were affected by protests and cancellation of shows, but the film was expected to show the big jump that usually comes on Saturday. That, unfortunately, was missing as Dilwale remained flat throughout the day. The growth at multiplexes did not come.

The fate of Dilwale now depends on the growth it can show on Sunday and how well it passes the all-important Monday test. A jump of more than 20% today would be a positive sign for the weekdays. Morning shows today haven’t really shown that big a jump in business. Collections are at around the same level as on Saturday or a little higher.

The worrying factor for the investors of Dilwale would be the box office performance of Bajirao Mastani. The gap which was Rs 8.2 crore on Friday between the two films, has come down to Rs 4.56 crore on Saturday. Now, if Bajirao Mastani can further close the gap, it has every chance of doing what looked impossible prior to release.

The box office game is so unpredictable that even a legend who has achieved everything that there is to achieve in the industry (and more), will be going through some nervous moments in the next couple of days. He won’t lose money, economics-wise Dilwale is a safe film, but this was always a battle of egos, the winner takes it all.

Dilwale Box Office Collections

  • Friday – 21 crore
  • Saturday – 20.08 crore
  • Total collections - 41.08 crore

  • I watched late night show of BM yesterday in delhi and I tell you what, there’s not a single director who’s as good as the likes of bhansali sir and hirani sir. That movie is an epic! Kuch bhi kiya hota Srk sahab bas bhansali sahab se panga na liya hota. I was saying it continuously before the clash that BM will eat up dilwale. Some indicine users are still being kind and talking about dilwale’s chances of 200 crore. Lol I tell you what dilwale won’t even collect as much as TWMR. Now it’s time for Srk to pack his bags and say ready steady Po…!

  • Dilwale is a long running Horse Rohit Shetty movies run for long time. Golmal series, Singham, BolB, CE etc. Diwale will also have long run bcos of +ve WOM

  • Hmmm, Sunday should be in the range of 23-24 cr.

    @Indicine : Would really appreciate if you publish an article on overseas collections.
    Dilwale has taken overseas market on storm.
    22 cr opening day, which is a record for any Bollywood movie so far.

  • Indicine gave 4* to HNY- It dropped on 2nd day
    Indicine gave 4* to PRDP- It dropped on 2nd day
    Indicine gave 4* to Dilwale- It dropped on 2nd day :-P

  • clash with protests effecting it!!! BM have booked the best SS compared to Dilwale and the occupancy for BM is 45% nd dilwae 85% today..harsh on SRK….SLB did what he wanted to …still wait for Monday to decide ..20% growth is good !!!

  • @Shreya 2:08 pm : Why he needs to pack his bags girls? Dilwale will be a “Clean hit” in its first weekend itself as its is set to put 120 cr+ worldwide in first weekend itself (Which is huge considering the clash factor and protests).

  • Seriously Shocking! No one would have expected Bajirao to give it such a good fight.

    EVerything was in favour of SRK and Dilwale too..

    Huge Starcast
    Better and Chartbuster music
    Favourable Genre
    More no. of screens and shows

    And Yet BM is possessing such a threat!

  • SRK fans start saying that Bajirao is bigger film than HAIDER

    Is Ranveer singh bigger star than Shaahid kapoor ?

    Was Shaahid Kapoor bigger star than Hrithik Roshan in clash ( Bang Bang vs Haider ) ?

    Is Ranveer Singh bigger star than SRK in clash ( Dilwale vs Bajirao )

    when did Historical/Drama films like Haider, Bajirao become bigger value in term of BOX OFFICE value than just Entertainment films like Bang Bang, Dilwale?

    All things that SRK fans said are just excuses when Dilwale is not performing well at BOX OFFICE .

    Realities are

    1, Dilwale > Bajirao
    2, SRK > Ranveer Singh
    3, Entertainment theme > Historical/Drama theme
    4, Hrithik > Shaahid
    5, Shahid > Ranveer Singh
    6, Slb > Rohit
    7, Vishal Bharwaj > Shiddharth Anand
    8, Positive WOM Bajirao against most Negative WOM Dilwale
    9, Positive WOM Haider against most negative WOM BANG BANG !
    10, BANG BANG ! > Haider
    11, SOLO starrer BB! vs SOLO Starrer Haider
    12, MULTI starrer Dilwale vs SOLO Starrer Bajirao

    Where are differences between “BANG BANG ! vs Haider” and “Dilwale vs Bajirao” ?

    ANSWER … Nothing except ONE no.12 i.e DILWALE is a multi starrer Film against Solo Starrer BAJIRAO whereas BANG BANG ! was an one man show against solo starrer HARDER

    Dilwale weekend … below 65 Cr
    Bajirao weekend … above 45 Cr

  • Clash and protests eating up the business …the prob is BM have unnecessarily booked better SS ..the occupancy i s less for them..bcoz of BM dilwale getting badly effected!!!

  • Yeah, as an SRK fan, I expected much more and these collections are disappointing.
    Yet, I hope for the best and I really want it to sustain well on weekdays.
    Also, Xmas weekend is there and it might boost the collections of Dilwale.
    Nevertheless , Xmas weekend will add huge chunk of money for Dilwale in overseas market.

  • Dilwale is a film for Famalies n Youths it will show good jump on Sun n excellent trend on Mon Despite so much negetivity plus Non Holiday plus Clash Dilwale doing very well God is with Srk, Love is Bigger than Hate will prove in comming days

  • There is a positive boost in collections of BM because of the protest. Cities in which Dilwale screens are cancelled, people have no option but to root for BM instead for weekend. Though, hoping that still Dilwale will cross 180cr with 2500screens and fingers crossed for 200crs.

  • This is really unfortunate. It’s true that BM is a good movie. But Dilwale is a really light hearted rom com. It doesn’t deserve this kind of fate. Hope Dilwale manages to become a hit at least. SRK and Kajol’s chemistry cannot match upto anyone else’s. Wish u all the best SRKajol! Luv u 2!

  • Protest never effects on collection of films. Protest is only effects 1%-2% of total collection of the film.

    So stop giving excuses of protest.

    Before release of the film Dilwale, SRK fans say king of clash..

    Now they are giving the excuses of division of screen.
    Stop giving excuses
    Accept of what ever Dilwale is earning at the box-office

  • sorry u havent mentioned 850 shows being cancelled ….the worst thing is BM have booked better SS than Dilwale and if not for PVR contract Dilwale wld have struggled

  • What srk said before release of dilwale ..
    Agar 4 films bhi release hoti na 18th dec tho bhi main apni film 18th dec ko hi release karta….
    Look srk what happens with ur film now overconfidence…

  • i know this is going to happen….dilwale will be a avg to semi hit now….srk fans must be praying like this ‘oh god plz make dilwae a clean hit’ if not a super hit forget about blockbuster
