My Name Is Khan Box Office Prediction

These predictions are real hard to get right, simply because box office is very unpredictably and a lot depends on the merits of a film. But a film like My Name Is Khan, irrespective of how it turns out to be, is likely to open to huge numbers. The first weekend will no doubt be record breaking, both overseas and India.

Here is our prediction for the year’s most awaited release – My Name Is Khan directed by Karan Johar starring Shahrukh Khan and Kajol!

  • Opening weekend – 30 crores minimum, could even be as high as 38 – 40 crores including paid previews.
  • Week 1 (if loved): 60 crores plus, could easily beat Ghajini.
  • Week 1 (if mixed): 55 – 60 crores
  • Week 1 (if disliked): 50 – 53 crores
  • Lifetime (if loved): 110 – 120 crores. The repeat value is unlikely to be as high as 3 Idiots.
  • Lifetime (if mixed): 100 – 110 crores.
  • Lifetime (if disliked): 75 – 80 crores

Overseas, the film is likely to beat the record of 3 Idiots even if the reactions are mixed, mainly due to the wide release and the SRK – Karan – Kajol fan-following. $20 million plus is a possibility if the film is loved.

Indian box office numbers will be more interesting though, here are some reasons why

  • Aamir Khan currently holds the record for two of the biggest money spinners ever – Ghajini and 3 Idiots. While MNIK is not expected to break the records set by 3 Idiots, it will be interesting to see if the film can beat the 15 month old Ghajini in India.
  • Can MNIK beat the opening weekend record of 3 Idiots?
  • Can MNIK beat the opening week record of Ghajini or even 3 Idiots?

Do tune into Indicine. We’ll keep you updated on My Name Is Khan.

    2nd WEEK

    10 CRORES……

    3rd WEEK

    3.5 CRORES…..

    Lyfe time—— 46-47 Crores

    A Flop……

    Yes Big Flop………

  • hey, just see folks, the review’s only just out and see how many comments are been posted in this short period! that’s why srk said ‘you can love me or hate me, but you can never ignore me’ most of the negative reviews here are ones out of hatred, someone had mentioned that devd got 1 star from taran, yes taran has been proven wrong by the audience few times(chak de india got just 2 stars)but if you luk @ past stats taran adarsh has got more correct predictionsof bo than any other critic!srkrox!

  • Mr. Adiii, For ur kind info its the producers who pays money to critics not the Actors.
    3 Idiots was a very good movie but certainly not worth 4.5/5

    So, wait till other reviews comes out. Though I am pretty sure Most of them like Raja Sen, Anupama Chopra, Rajeev Masand, Kaveri Bazmee, Nikhat Kazmi who are die hard SRK loyalist will give the ratings ranging from 4 to 5.

    The actual thing will be audience reaction.

    Any how, if the Movie will be bad, then also it will cross 80 cr.

  • Prediction on MNIK:—

    Paid preview:3 Crores…
    Friday:11 crores…
    Saturday:10.5 crore…
    Sunday:12.5 crore…

    Week 1::- India::-55 crore…
    Oversees::-30…

    Week 2::-India::-20…
    Oversees::-20…

    Total:::::–India::-90-100 Crore…
    Oversees::-65 Cror…

    Verdict::Average/Semi hit

  • I think it will be like his-and Kajol get married (as she had a child with earlier marriage -read it on some website) but after 9/11 her child wd be badly treated in school etc and she leaves SRK who then start his journey to meet president AND make him let the whole US know that he isnt a terrorist and kajol comes back

    From promos it seems like this . I wd say nothing great in story . But what make a love story great is performance , direction and emotion which will be known only after 12th feb

  • those who say MNIK is a flop are living in a coma out there sick and idiots ,, my name is khan is a flop , fuck you guys………………………..

    at-lest say its a hit ok a flop hahahahhhahaha

  • amir shattered india as well as overseeas record wid 3i…den salman khan came up wid his dream project Veer..created hysteria at many place,.proved once again dat he is the king of the masses.he did a wonderful job…though the movie did avg over all bt mass ppl gna remember it forever ….

    nw its time to srk to come up with something dt can achieve something(he must be in grt pressure wid d fate of dis movie)..hope he can deliver something gud otherwise …….;)

    anyways best of luck to khans dynasty in bollywood….dnt wanna others to break the rule of dis trio …:)

  • so whats problem is that!! here
    final decission by audience!!!
    okz
    lets i remembere the days of rnbdj.
    26/11 attack in mumbai and everybody were fear about terrorist attck. srk didnt get chance of promote his movie. when the movie is release most of critics gave negative reviews to rnbd. after release rnbdj break all previous records till ghajini release.
    so bada star vo hota hai jo difficultiese mein bhi apni movie ko bb bana deta hai.

    so aur ek baat bro

    in india mostly board, g,pg exams held in this month feb. so during the exams time ,releasing the movie is biggest risk so if this movie cross 100 cr marks then it will be toatly prove that srk is the biigest and mega star of india.
    bro plz shut your mouth

    loossers loosers!

  • SALAAM 2 all

    srk deserve this words

    “” my name is publicity kaa baadshaah ” and “‘ i am not the bollywood kaa baadhshaah”

  • hei adiii,,,don’t be a foolest…………
    MNIK will be average kind of film which might be a oversees hit but in india its flop……

    I think u fans only deserve typical type of acting from him..

    Lets see what is there in Mnik…

    But I repeat don’t be rude yaar..always welcome gd movie..

  • bristi u little beauty………kabhi ha kabhi na i like the most of srk’s movie…….i also like dil se,devdas………

    Don’t overconfident,adiii……..after release of MNIK u may be gone mad……….

    Becoz its have a huge chance of become flop…….

    so be careful Adiiii…..

    And thank u bristi for reply…….

    But where neuman??????

  • I am sure mnik will be the biggest blockbuster ever. It’s going to break all records. It looks like a master piece movie. Good luck to mnik. Love u srk.

  • I am from bangladesh and i could garuntee all of you that mnik is not going to break any records.it could be a hit but no record breaker.

  • My Prediction: 85 to 90 Crores Maximum at the box office…..

    Verdict: Hit…..

    Well to be honest, I am not interested in numbers this time. All I want to see is a Power Packed Performance from SRK in MNIK as I really think that he hasn’t been delivering the performances of his potential in the last 4-5 movies…….. The last movie in which he acted well was Chak De India….After that, I don’t know what was going through his mind that He signed the movies like OSO, RNBJ, Billu, Dulha Mil Gaya etc…. All Crap…..

    Hina and Fathiya: Please stop defending your favourites….. We are general audience and we should praise the performances if they are worth it even if it comes from your fav’s counterpart…….. It’s really unfair to criticize one’s good performance just because you don’t like him/her……

    Anywayz, My good wishes are with MNIK as the script looks good and different from New York and Kurbaan as this time a Muslim basically is not a terrorist unlike New York and Kurbaan in which The heroes were actually terrorists……It seems more like a love story…

    SRK-Kajol super hit pair, Karan Johar’s Direction, Nice trailers etc are a big plus point for the movie so it will definitely do well at the box office but my real concern is that why did they hike the ticket price for the movie?????? they shouldn’t have done that……In India, So many people can give it a miss just because they don’t want to spend extra money on tickets……

  • Reports are not good . so my prediction for this film will be

    1st Weekend – 17 Crores
    1st week – 30 Crores

    2nd week – 8 crores

    lifetime will be 43 Crores

    Verdict – Flop

  • Mystic rivar..I forgot ur name u told once..I am from kolkata…but staying in Dubai…

    I agreed Chak de…was gd..

  • @Fahad ..Are you new on this site?From past 3 months I have been making this point that leave fan following aside while watching a movie.I was just reminding Fathiyia of what I felt when Veer released.

    @Fathiyia ..I agree Salman should have gone 4 a better Director.About Karan Johar I was extremely disappointed by his last flicks like KANK n Kurbaan.Hope so he learns this time.As for MNIK I liked Kajol in the promos.N SRK Kajol chemistry looks gud.But music is poor except 4 Noor e Khuda.

  • Todays hit composer like pritam, sajid-wajid & a.r rahman why they are not getting chance working with karan johar . karan taking every films shankar ehasaan loy . His music are not chartbusters .
