Happy New Year Trailer Stats

Youtube

  • Combined views on Youtube has crossed 4 million. Trailer was released after 2 hours. (Data includes views from T-Series, Red Chillies Entertainment and Yash Raj Films)

Others stats

  • The trailer was sent to Whatsapp users who had opted to receive the trailer on launch day.
  • More than 13 million Tata Sky subscribers were reached as the trailer was aired on the home channel (100).
  • Half a million people reached via SMS and Email.
  • About 1.25 crore people got to watch the trailer with Singham Returns i.e the audience in mass centres who may not have access to the internet or social media.

Overall, the strategy has worked big time. The trailer has generated huge buzz on social media, amongst the masses and the trade. What remains to be seen is, how much of it actually converts into ticket sales. During times when films like Singham Returns on 3600 screens and normal (non-festive) ticket prices is collecting 32 crore on its opening day, will Happy New Year be the first film to collect 40 cr? Now that’s the big question!

    One thing we know official about HNY trailer is it crossed lifetime dislikes of Kick trailer(9K) within 7 days that too despite disabling Dislike button on youtube.

    Can Farah Khan tell us out of 70M people(Bechare) who got HNY trailer on their Whatsapp,

    HOW MANY BROKED THEIR MOBILES AFTER WATCHING IT..?

  • trailer broke no records, its the most disliked trailer of this year and one of worst trailers of all time, film will be worst too, we all know that. the over desperate srk and farah are trying hard to show that their trailer worked big time despite huge negativity

    LOL BIG FAIL!!!!

  • now thats we called only SRK rules on bollywood coming with some fresh IDEA(HNY) without any successful franchise or any third clas south remake

  • i had already said b4,it’s masterstroke by hny team 2 give preferance 2 facebook as fb is way bigger platform than youtube

  • It is a king khan movie which is coming in diwali so ucan expect some or the other record to be bbroken..well this is just the start..let’s hope the movie also breaks opening records until p.k arrives

  • Happy New year…biggest entertainer of 2014..
    For Haters: Salman himself said that trailer is kick ass.
    If still u post negetive comments means u also hate Salman…

  • I don’t think such kind of records make any difference.if ppl wanna watch it srk-dips names r enough and if u don’t want to watch it then it doesn’t matter whether u hv seen the trailer or not u will not watch the movie
