All London Dreams Box office updates will be published here.
A few multiplexes in Bangalore : Started slow, morning shows were poor (20%).. but has picked up for the afternoon shows (40 – 50%). The word of mouth is good.
Mumbai : In Mumbai too the start was slow (30%) afternoon shows were better. But lower than expected for a big budget film starring Salman Khan.
4:00 PM IST update – Single screens are poor, business has picked up after a slow start this morning. Advance booking for evening shows are good. Critic reviews and audience reactions are pretty positive.
7:15 PM IST update – Business has doubled for the evening and night shows. Few screens at select multiplexes in Bangalore, Delhi and Mumbai are sold out (shows are 9PM). For those curious, Aladin looks almost certain to be a disaster, unless it picks up on Saturday and Sunday.
11:00 PM IST update – Day 1 at multiplexes was mixed for London Dreams. Collections improved drastically during the later half of the day at multiplexes. Not doing too well on single screens. More updates tomorrow, stay tuned.
*********************************
Saturday updates
Bangalore – Good business at multiplexes throughout the day, especially INOX and PVR Cinemas. Single screens aren’t too great in Bangalore.
Mangalore (Karnataka) – Fantastic collections at Big Cinemas (Bharat Mall). When we contacted the Manager of the multiplex he said “London Dreams is doing well, family audiences are loving it, collections should improve further on Sunday. Aladin opened very poorly, around 10% occupancy for the Morning show on Saturday. Its targeted at the kids and Sunday being a holiday, we expect a better response.”
Mumbai – Much like Bangalore, Business has picked up after a slow start on Friday. Sunday is expected to be even better.
Overall, all India business for the first 2 days should be around Rs 100 million (10 crores – nett gross).
*********************************
Sunday updates – Appreciation from the youth and family audience alike has resulted in excellent collections on Sunday all over. Doubled the collections of Saturday, which is a good sign. The weekend business is around 15 – 17 crores.
*********************************
Monday – The India Australia cricket match has affected collections. Overall Week 1 collections are expected to be somewhere between 24 – 28 crores, which is good. Much like Blue, second week is crucial for London Dreams. But unlike Blue which had no competition in its second week, two biggies release this Friday – Jail and Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. While Jail wouldn’t prove to be much of a competition, Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif’s APKGK would be the first choice next week. Will London Dreams show life this weekend or end up being an average grosser, remains to be seen.
Tuesday – Bad news! The collections have dropped after recording decent collections on Monday. The drop was expected (since Monday was a holiday) but with 2 big releases coming up, the show-count would reduce drastically at multiplexes for London Dreams. A HIT seems highly unlikely now. Open second week would have been ideal. Lifetime nett gross should struggle to touch 40 crores in India.
*********************************
Updates: London Dreams crashed further on Wednesday and Thursday. The first day of Week 2 (Friday) saw a drop of more than 75% compared to its first Friday. Lifetime nett gross should be under 31 – 32 crores which would be way below expectations. Below average / Flop likely. Very disappointing.
- First weekend – 15 crores
- Week 1 – 23 crores
- Week 2 – 7 crores
Total in 2 Weeks – 30 crores
Box office Verdict – FLOP
Wikipedia reports “Wanted” has collected over Rs 100 crores, and that’s excluding tax. And London Dreams is doing well. Both are different genre of films which stars Sallu Bhai.
2009, obviously Salman Khan’s year. Don’t listen to the critics, especially that walking popcorn fart Rajeev Masand. London Dreams is a great movie. Go watch it and decide for yourself.
i coudnt understand that why every single site and every single person has diffrent figures for every single movie
indicine said yesterday that saturday business was 5.5 cr but ricky said 3.75 cr , bollybusiness said 4.25
so on which statement i hv to beleave ??? someone said weekend business 15 cr and someone said 17 cr
some one said blue did 30 cr in 1st week and someone said 36 cr.
so which figures are right ??? who will tell me ????
Dear Harsh, It is reality, AJAY DEVGAN is one of the best actor in our Industry. It’s also true he did not get of what he deserve in Bollywood. His performances in all type of roles are fantastic……But he did not get like Shahrukh,Salman,Amir,Hritik or Akshay. About Akshay , Ajay Devgan performe with him in 3 movies & beat him especially in Khakee. He also equally perform with Amir (Ishq) & with Salman Khan in HDDCS & now LD.
Anyhow, I know what’s wrong with you Indians;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;In subcontinent people are little bit RACIST. They don’t like black people. Even girls prefer a white man for marriage. Here in Swiss Pakistani & Indian girls prefer their own ethnic & nationality boy & same time there preference only white pakistani or indian. It’s shameful, you people declare us racist while in fact PAKISTANI & INDIANS are most Racist people after Britishers.
Sorry guys to hurt you…….But I LOVE KAJOL & his husband AJAY DEVGAN. About London Dreams , in my near LD is number one film of 2009. And Ajay & Salman both deserve award for this film. About 2009 best actor Salman with Wanted,LD is strong candidate……………..Be aware MR.Perfectionist AMIR KHAN with 3 Idiots comming later this year.
About Next year……………………………Shahrukh with MNK, Ajay with Rajniti & Hritik with Kites will be hot candidates.
Hi Ricky, I’m Pooja I’m also from Geneve,Swiss. I’m your regular client. Last week I buy 5 CD’s from your shop, you was standing with Mr. Ali (pakistani boy)………..Being an Indian I thanking you for promoting Bollywood in Swiss. Please tell me about Music Concert of X-Mas……Pakistani band OVERLOAD & Freestyle Co. performing with Nargas?.
I’m agree with you about racism clame. But we prfer indian due to same culture. Not due to colour.
In India girls like white but european born hate racism.
Thank you “Ricky” to Support me i really want that everybody support the actor like Ajay Devgan people just underestimate him b’coz the other hand u have a star like salman , akshay , Amir people like them b’coz they show them self and taking u r attentation. i am not talking about thair acting but other things.

yaar london dream ka budget kitna he koi bta do yaar
GUYS AND DOLLS DO NOT FIGHT
, LONDON DREAM UPDATE BOXOFFICE: DISASTER
PRIYANKA- Here is the exact update on LONDON DREAMS-
London Dreams collected a decent 15 crore nett approx over its first weekend. The approx breakdowns were 4.25 crore on Friday, 3.75 crore on Saturday and a very good 7 crore on Sunday.
The collections showed a slight dip on Saturday as there was a big cricket match going on. The collections should be good on Monday as it is a holiday but there is also opposition from another big cricket match which will make collections lower than they normally would be on a holiday.
London Dreams will probably do around 25-30 crore nett business over its first week depending on how strong the holiday Monday is and how collections fare afterwards.
The other release of the week Aladin is a huge disaster with around 3.50 crore nett collections over first weekend. The first week should finish in the 5-6 crore nett range.
London Dreams as expected opens to slow response on Friday morning shows with 30 40% occupancy rate, Loaded with fair reports and great appreciation from youth, movie picked up on evening shows with 60%+ collections, Overall Friday was fair with 4.5 crore Nett, Saturday saw steady collections from opening shows but jump was not dramatic and Saw a dip at evening shows, Saturday collections settles at 4.25 crore approx., Sunday saw best collections in line with First Sunday figure of BLUE (6.5 Crore). Overall London Dreams Weekend Nett is approx. 15.25 Crore. Monday being a holiday at North India should be steady with minimal drop (As movie is triggered by youth and School/colleges are off on Monday on eve of Guru Nanak Dev Birthday). So far collections are good but not great, Require some rock steady days to reach safety zone.
Aladin as expected opens to poor response(thanks to dull promos and weak promotion) of around 35% on Friday leading to 1.10 Crore day one(Screening fo aladin was 40% less than london dreams), Reviews were plain bad(However movie is driven by kids and general feedback is full paisa vasool for family and kids), Kids in India are not so liberal to come in bulk for the movie of their genre, With limited audience and screen space aladin manage to pick up on Saturday by approx. 50% leading to 1.5 Crore Nett collections and Sunday was inline of Saturday takes total Nett Weekend to 4.35 Crore for Aladin.
Interesting aspect here is that Aladin and London dreams saw approx 40% and 55% Weekend respectively on an average (Collections of LD higher because of higher number of screens). Full capacity of Aladin for first weekend was approx. 15 Crore. Aladin is failure by choice, not by de-merits. Even with 100% business, it was required 4-6 steady weeks for success which is impractical and impossible scenario.
All The Best Two Week Nett Stands at 37 Crore, Third weekend collections drops to 3 crore(Due to LD/Aladin clash) leading to 40 Crore total Nett in 17 Days.
BLUE is way below expectations with 41 Crore in 17 days . movie is on verge of out of cinemas. Going to wrap up under 42 Crore.
BollyBusiness

At INDICINE.COM IF LD HAS COLLECTD 21 CRORE IN 4 DAYZ! Y SHOULD WE XPECT NLY 4 TO 5 CRORES NEXT THREE DAYS?CAN YOU PREDICT ABOUT THE OPENIN OF JAIL ND APKGK?
London dream is doing very good business in Pakistan. Everyone appreciating salman acting and thrilling music by shankar ahsan loy.I loved the movie and I think that movie ll do good business at box office.Best of luck to all the team of London dreams.
Amish y dnt yu say dat blue is declared a flop in dat site! Btw check out your 1st comment in this topic and dan decide should yu talk much or less!
guyz dis is not aimed at any1 so plz dont start abusin.
wat annoys me bout people here iz dat even before WANTED and now LD released certain people were sayin dat da film looks crap. Salman is finished etc.
give da guy a break, he iz finally startin to work in better projects.
lets just see how far LD can go.
London Dreams has had a poor start in International markets. United Kingdom is best with 1.05 crore. North America grossed around 95 lakhs and UAE was 85 lakhs. The three day total for London Dreams is 3.50 crore.
well am surprised. honestly thought it would be higher. BUT who knows maybe da collections can improve.
can some1 plz tell me da collections of LD for mon.
thankx
say if da film haz earned 5 crores on Mon. dats approx 21-22 crores.
surely da film should comfortably make 30 crores by da time APKGK and JAIL arrive.
wat do u guyz think
Faud- this page s for LD not for blue rt… so i don wan to comment on that.. ya in that site blue s called a flop. other sites average.
n for ur kind informa none knows exact fig of any movie. each site gives different fig.. EG-in bollywood hungama blue fig s some 3cr-4cr. all the best 13cr.
i did tell in my first comment- it may be average n i didnt know monday was a holiday so…
i copied that article just for Mr saju bcoz he asked me to look at the update in dat website.
i try to put most articles from other sites so dat u can compare.. nothin else..;)
i did tell, if some1 tells collections r very gud den bein a fan u like that person n if actual fact s told u talk badly bout that person..;) ha ha.
one more thing.. v r just fans not partners in a actors movie that by promotin v `ll gain something.. think practical dude…
by promotin or critisizin none s gonna get anythin.. except these websites.;)
v just do it for fun.. wy enemity among ourselves for some1 else… usin bad words etc…
be a human (BEING HUMAN) thats wat even salman promotes these days…:)
box office updates plz as on tuesday
