‘My Name Is Khan’ is still relevant: Shah Rukh Khan

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, whose film ‘My Name Is Khan’ completed 7 years of release, expressed sadness over the plot of the film still remaining relevant today – given the increasing plight of muslims after the 9/11 attacks in 2001.

“It’s kinda sad too that ‘My Name Is Khan’ is still relevant. But thanks Karan, Ravi, Kajol, SEL Shibani Niranjan Deepa Jimmy and all cast/crew for a special film” Shah Rukh tweeted.

The actor’s tweet is also being seen as criticism towards US President Donald Trump’s executive order to temporarily bar entry into the US to refugees and citizens from seven Muslim-majority nations.

The director of the film, Karan Johar, thanked SRK and said “Thank you Rizvan for spreading your love, your message, your innocence… Seven years of ‘My Name Is Khan'”

Released in theatres on 12 February 2010, My Name Is Khan collected Rs 210 crore worldwide. It was the biggest overseas grosser of all time when it released and performed better outside India.

Shah Rukh won his 8th Filmfare Best Actor award for performance, his last to date.

  • @honest man
    Lets see all SRK-YRF films
    1. DDLJ released in dull pre diwali period and clashed with Yaarana
    2. DTPH released in Deewali pooja day with clash with Bhai and Gulaame Mustafa
    3. Veer Zaara-Aitraaz, Mohabbatein-Mission Kashmir
    All SRK YRF films have had major clashes and day 1 is not lucrative. Like Veer zaara had highest single day in 2nd day bcoj day 1 was deewali pooja where people are busy with festivals

    Movies like CDI and Fan dont open to record breaking nos. even if u put Salman in it

    Dhoom-3 , ETT, Fanna were all solo releases.

    @INDICINE pls post this

  • @Dishones Cow-LOL, SRK never gave more than 3 flops in a row. Whereas Lallu gave 6 back to back flops before HAHK and 4 back to back flops after HAHK barring KA which was saved by SRK. Multistarrer can help in making a film hit but how can a multistarrer be helpful in being a “flop”? You mean to say if there was a smaller star in place of Aamir Khan in Andaz Apna Apna it would have been a Hit by Gangu Teli Lallu’s starpower(???) alone? If there was Tushar Kapoor instead of Akshay Kumar in Jaanemaan it would have made Jaan-E-Mann a Hit because Lallu would be the sole star(???) in that film? WHat kind of rubbish talk is this? Lallu in 90’s survived on Madhuri and Karishma. You know what is the biggest proof that Lallu was born in 2010? It’s that YRF never cast him before 2010. It’s because lallu wasn’t even a star before 2010. Baazigar being a small banner film earned almost equal to Darr, and it has a high probability of being declared a Blockbuster. A

And what a joke, Darr was because of Sunny Deol, even Darr’s poster showed SRK in the most important role. And lallu wasn’t given any importance in HSSH. And what hrithik roshan are you talking about? I didn’t even know Hrithik Roshan’s name before KKKG happened with SRK. KKKG was a bigger success in overseas than in domestic because of SRK’s starpower.Even tushar kapoor and zayed khan can’t break Lallu’s record of back to back flops.
    So out of a flopstars career you have made a list of fluke hits and thereby trying to prove that Lallu is a big star. Actually Lallu is a big newcomer like Deepika who was born in 2010. So Lallu is the most promising newcomer and you have the audacity to comare Global megastar King Khan with Lallu!!!
    Let’s take a look at Lolman’s career in short
    1991-1994-6 back to back flops
    1995-1996-4 back to back flops(barring KA which had SRK)
    2000-2004—-9 back to back flops
    2004-2007—-8 back to back flops
    2007-2009—-4 back to back flops
    2009-2010—-3 back to back flops
    And also struggled 15 years to give own starrer hgoty.(highest ever) Don’t bark about No Entry, it wasn’t Lallu’s lead role.
    What kind of “Cow” tries to compare this kind of flopstar with Global star King Khan? The answer is Dishonest COW.

  • @NN
    Leave it now!!!!!
    Who says post ipl cant earn more than Christmas?
    Dabbang 2 earned 146 in Christmas. Just after 4-5 Months YJHD did 189 cr in post IPL.

    And if HAHK had SRK or Aamir it would have done 80-100 cr business.

    HAHK wom was much better than DDLJ or raja hindustani, but poor Madhuri had to alone carry it
    HAHK opened to only 9 lakhs. It didnt get much screens because exhibitors were afraid to give screens to Salman who had come after 7 back to back flops

    SRK or Aamir would have made it to at least 30-50 lakhs opening as they would get more screens.

    HAHK WOM=10 times of DDLJ wom, So hahk had potential to become 1st 100 cr in 1994 itself. But opening was so poor due to Salman’s fikka stardom in 90s.

  • @nn no im trying to say if andaz apna apna becomes a hit it’s a multistarrer and if it becomes a flop then it’s a salman starrer. it’s called chalupanti like your mujrawali mother. you zebra fans do this things because you know srk’s stands no where in comparison to salman in overall career whether you talk about bb, atbb, hgoty or anything. so you have to delete some his blockbusters to put srk ahead. but still it hardly matters. you will delete his two blockbusters he will add 3 more in no time, so why are giving yourself so much stress. if srk has been dominating for two decades then why the number does not show that. for example salman has 8 blockbusters this decade only and when this decade will end he will have 10 or 11 which is the total career blockbusters of srk. salman has 4 highest grosser of the year this decade and when this decade will end he will have 5 or 6 which is equal or even more in comparison to the career hgoty of srk. salman has 4 record openers and 6 record all time weekend in this decade only which is already more than the career record openers of srk, if we consider solo. yes he has some more bheekhwala openers like k3g and trimurti but salman will also beat them in few more years. srk has 9 ,2 crore plus footfall films and three 3 crore plus footfall films in whole career, salman has already eight 2 crore plus footfall films and two 3 crore plus footfall films this decade and will easily beat the career count of srk in this decade, even don’t be surprised if he beats that in 2017 itself. so the moral of the story is what srk has done in whole career salman is going to beat that in a decade only, so i actually don’t need to compare the whole career of salman and srk. it’s just 6 or 7 years of salman which is bigger than 25 years of srk. these are the real numbers, that’s what your gangu teli has done in his 25 years. hahk, karan arjun does not matter for salman now, he has moved far ahead. but very sad to say that srk’s career is stuck in two films ddlj and ce and he will remain there. so you can delete all the the blockbusters of salman in 90’s still it does not matter because giving blockbusters is like killing mosquitos for salman , he is not a one film wonder like srk .
    it does not matter if you know hritik or not, hritik was the same man who gave better initial against srk’s magnam opus mohabbatein. he gave the highest grosser in 2000. not a single film of srk opened better than mission kashmir in 2000. when k3g released the top 3 highest opening day were indian, mission kashmai and yaadein and out of then two were hritik roshan starrers, and srk was not even in the competition. infact he was chasing the opening day of dulhan hum le jaayenge released way back in 2000 till k3g released( december 2001). k3g opened to a recordbreaking 2 crore 38 lacks( something like that). why will i give the credit srk for that kind of opening who gives 77 lack opening with 1 2 ka 4 which is 1/3rd of that, pagal samjha hain kya mereko.
    srk did many films with madhuri but still failed to cross hahk, then why he failed to use the advantage of madhuri, madhri ne plastic surgery karwa liya tha kya. the bitter truth is srk has never given hits in the region of hahk and mpk and he never will , so you can only cry about that.
    yes i said yrf made a big mistake by investing on small star like srk and today they have understood that and are giving record breaking weekend and record breaking opening day with films like ett, sultan which srk failed to do in 24 years.
    @sayar but on the same day mission kashmir took record breaking opening clashing with mb. same goes for bmcm vs k2h2. so diwali day and clash. and what about rnbdj which failed to cross singh is king opening.

  • @Dishonest Cow- Abey moron, that’s exactly what I am trying to say, that lallu was born after 2010, that’s why YRF never cast him in their films before 2010. He wasn’t any star in last two decades whereas SRK was no. 1 in both of the last two decades. And this decade lallu is giving blockbuster only and only because of Eid, the proof is Jai Ho. He doesn’t have any stardom outside Eid. And there is no “chalupanti”( I don’t even know what if means) in what I am saying, ask a 5 year old kid who has watched both AAA and HSSH, he will answer that AAA was a Lallu Gangu Teli’s film whereas HSSH wasn’t lallu’s. Rab Ne Bana di jodi was released on a critical time period when India was recovering from Mumbai blast or some other terrorist accident and it wasn’t even promoted well. Decades can’t be compared, they have their own privileges and setbacks. Just like Amitabh’s era can’t be compared with SRK’s era. Give Ranbir Kapoor solo Eid release now, he will also start making blockbusters. And SRK has plenty of chance giving blockbusters in coming years, but he doesn’t have the chance of breaking lallu’s back to back record of flops. Ask any analyst, which one is more significant, having consistent stardom for 3 decades or having stardom for 7 years. Also, more importantly lallu is a Local star, he won’t ever match the stardom that SRK has worldwide. All the western leading news agencies has already declared SRK the Biggest Moviestar in the World before lallu was even born. Whereas in any international news that comes about lallu is that he is facing Criminal charges ???. So keep being happy with your rickshawala standard hero and his shitty films and Lallu’s record of 50 flops. And the last thing, you are the most shameless retard in this world who can’t keep his word but still uses the screen name of “honest man”…!!! ???

  • @sayar and who says january can’t earn more than xmas. salman’s jai ho earned more than srk’s don2. now will say about year gap, but srk failed to cross salman’s 2012 xmas release dabangg 2 in january 2017 with 10 time more hiked ticket price.
    just like hahk would have done 100 crore with srk ce also would have done 300 crore with salman because ce’s word of mouth was 100 times better than ett but because of srk’s poor stardom it failed to cross ett’s opening record, with salman it would have smashed ett’s opening record by distance.
    @nn not at all. i have seen andaz apna apna, it was aamir khan’s film with salman in supporting role. and the biggest thing is aamir as a star is way bigger than saif or monish behl. so if i have to give the credit of success of hssh to non stars like saif then why not give the blame for aaa to aamir who is actually a superstar and can carry a film in his own shoulders. in 1999 the second highest grosser also belongs to salman it’s biwi no 1 . now what’s your excuse salman was there in the film from begining to end.
    and srk was no1 in last two decades? what a joke. was srk’s every film taking record breaking opening or he was beating everyone’s film and was giving the highest grosser every year. in 2000-09 srk has 2 record breaking opening while hritik has 3 , aamir has 4. and aamir was absent from 2001-04, despite of it he has twice more record openers than srk, ye hain tere number 1 ka namuna, chal bhaag yaha se. srk was never number 1, he was never a superstar he was just a decent star.
    what you are giving me is just excuses, they are not facts. decades can not be compared , what kind of excuses are this. salman in 1 decade is going to beat the whole career of srk, then what’s the point to compare the whole career of salman and srk. do whatever you want to do with aaa nad hssh , i give a damn, salman’s 1 decade being bigger than srk’s whole career itself proves what he has done in 25 years. and consistency? even a tortoise is consistent in his slow speed, but it hardly matters. salman has also given blockbusters in xmas( dabangg2 ) and post ipl( ready). and we all know what has srk done in xmas.

  • @Indicine-Please post this.

    @Dishonest Cow- LOL, CE couldn’t even be made with lallu the Gangu Teli, cause Lallu can’t act, to expect him to do the caricatures that SRK did to make CE hit is impossible. Only SRK could’ve done that role. And in Andaz Apna Apna lallu was in a supporting role…?????!!??? “Chutiyapa” at its best. AAA was a male-centric film with Amar-Prem as lead role. Probably you don’t understand anything about films and acting, that’s why you are spouting your filthy garbage logic here. HSSH and BIwi No.1 (the title says enough) was Karishma Kapoor films. And yeah, no logic in giving lallu the credits of his films before 2010. Cause all were either flukes or other star’s films. And what rubbish,,.. you don’t believe SRK was no.1 in the last two decades…????!!!??? THen why do you visit BOI and Indicine. According to Indicine-

    // Q. In what time period was SRK considered absolute number 1? Why is he not being considered number 1 today? What can he do to come back to this position?

    A. SRK was No 1 for most part of his career.///

    http://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/askindicine-qna-4pm/

    Let’s not even talk about BOI, cause according to BOI SRK is no. 1 in the 90’s, 2000’s and All-Time ranking.

    Your every logic and every data is a “LIE” if you don’t accept that ranking. Cause you are quoting BOI data(that too manipulated, cause you are only quoting lallu’s performers not his disasters) and you don’t even believe in their analysis. So stop quoting data that doesn’t have any authenticity, cause according to your logic all trade sites are untrustworthy.

    “srk was never number 1, he was never a superstar he was just a decent star.” ROFL…!! ???Then what was Lallu the Gangu Teli?? Gate-keeper of Mannat or the beggar on the streets of Mumbai..?????? According to CNN, BBC, Forbes, The Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, Time Magazine etc. SRK is the Biggest moviestar in the World. Where is lallu the Gangu Teli’s name? Local Chichora Criminal…??????

    And yeah, decades can’t be compared. For example Eid and Christmas weren’t as lucrative in 90’s and mid 2000’s as they are now. THere were no Eid made star or Christmas made star before. Ask a kid which is more powerful, having consistent stardom for 3 decades or having blockbuster stardom for 7 years(even if you give 50 blockbuster in those 7 years, cause that means the audience are the same). Lallu will reach SRK’s status only if he rules another 2 decades at the top. Otherwise he is a forgotten material, anyway his films are the shittiest and most forgettable, so no chance of any legacy. Whereas SRK will be remembered even 50 years afterwards.

    And lastly tell me what you are, you are a paid PR of Lallu the Gangu Teli who got spanked by BOI and so have come to Indicine to brainwash 1 or 2 stupid readers with your fanmade data(since you don’t accept BOI analysis so they are all fan-made data). But still here you have got spanked by your own assumptions in Indicine, but since you are Dishonest to the core, you are not keeping your word. Now one line in HIndi “bhag yaha se”, this is SRK’s article, no place for “gawar” dishonest PRs like you…!!!???

  • @nn if xmas is a lucrative period then why srk with don 2 failed to cross salman’s ready, that was not a eid release. and why with dilwale he failed to cross kangana’s twmr. why on eid 2013 he failed to cross ett’s opening day record , even ett was not released on eid day, it was independence day release. now what will you say independence day is more powerful. salman khan is what he is because he can give opening like ett which srk can only dream of. let srk give a opening like ett i will consider him as big as salman. this eid and xmas are excuses, yes they can help a film to collect more than a non holiday release but the gap can never be as big as today salman and srk films are having. the gap between fan and sultan is 215 crore ( bigger than lifetime collection of sultan)between raees and sultan is 170 crore. what sultan or bajrangi bhaijaan collected in 2015 and 16 , the other films releasing that year are not even collecting the half of that. but when salman had released one film on non holiday ( ready) and one film on eid( bodyguard) the gap was only 25 crore, that’s ok.

    and i follow boi.com’s datas and boxoffice numbers. their star power has nothing to do with boxoffice unless srk can never be at number 2 today. srk from 1992-2009 the time when he was ruling according to zebra fans he gave top grossers of the year only 5 times in 17 years, that is ruling according to you.

  • @Dishonest Cow-SRK gave HGOTY “worldwide” 9 times. DDLJ, DTPH, KKHH, Mohabbatein, K3G, Devdas, KHNH, VeerZaara, Om Shanti Om( in all of these films he was the central character) Lallu gave 7 times-MPK, HAHK(Madhuri film), HSSH( Saif Ali kHan and Karishma’s film), Dabangg, Bodyguard, Ek The Tiger, Bajrangi Bhaijaan. No entry and HSSH are not his films. So actually before this decade his only real HGOTY is MPK. No reason talking about these things as it is clear that he wasn’t even a star before 2010. In this decade in spite of being in his worst phase he still broke records with CE. And comparing difference between Fan with Sultan.. ?? ?? Are you nuts? Not because Fan released on Non-Festive period but because Fan was a Niche film. Even my 53 year old mother is SRK’s fan, but how can she relate with Gaurav. It was more relatable to young fans. But Lallu fans won’t understand words like Niche, Crime Thriller etc since lallu never tries them as he is No Artist. He even rejected CDI saying that it wasn’t commercial enough. THe problem isn’t that he refused a film, the problem is the “reason” he quoted. SRK’s real underperformer was Dilwale and everyone knows the negativity that film had to go through not just because of Clash but because of SRK’s intolerance comment. And Again comparing January film Raees (again a crime thriller in spite of being made with Masala/ commercial elements) which released in January with clash with Sultan released on Eid which was a sports drama?? Dilwale can be compared with TWMR as both were universal films and not niche/thrillers and it’s Dilwale which is the real underperformer. But the rest of the comparisons are “bakwaas”. Even HNY performed better than its word of mouth, but one thing I believe is that it’s lifetime would have been bigger if Lallu was in it. Cause lallu’s fanbase is like that, they love shitty films and the film also didn’t require any acting for lallu.. Whereas SRK’s core fanbase doesn’t like films like Ra-One, HNY etc and he lost the trust of his audience because of these films. If SRK starts doing south remakes like lallu he can’t be successful in that because his core fanbase doesn’t like films like that. But lallu understands his local fans better, and knows his stardom is fake cause if he does thrillers like Fan, niche films like Dear Zindagi and crime thrillers like Raees he will loose whatever local fan following he has. The biggest difference is SRK is an artist and lallu is a Non-actor. The proof that Lallu’s stardom is totally Eid dependent is “Jai HO”. A south remake, social message oriented popular film which failed to cross 20 crore in spite of having 4000 screens. And if you don’t believe in BOI star ranking then don’t quote any box office numbers , cause the site’s name is “Box office” so its star ranking is also according to boxoffice. I comment in Indicine only for supporting SRK, I have never quoted any Indicine number ever, neither HNY’s opening nor CE’s opening although I know pretty well that HNY was the first 40 crore day 1 and BOI also reported that initially. And yeah Christmas and Eid has become way beyond lucrative, cause except the films that are made in the biggest canvas like Baahubali, Robot 2.0 and Padmavati( which is big not because of Deepika but because of its canvas) other films won’t come anywhere close to Christmas and Eid releases unless some films come with WOM like Dangal. And lastly enough of your “chutiyapa”,?? get lost from World’s Biggest Moviestar’s article and find some solace in Local star Non-Actor, Teesra Khan for 2 decades Lallu’s 7 year old Local stardom..!!!

  • @Indicine- I edited my comment so kindly post it again.

But Lallu fans won’t understand words like Niche, Crime Thriller etc since lallu never tries them as he is a Non-Actor. He even rejected CDI saying that it wasn’t commercial enough.

I comment in Indicine only for supporting SRK, I have never quoted any Indicine number ever, neither HNY’s opening nor CE’s opening although I know pretty well that HNY was the first 40 crore day 1 and BOI also reported that initially. No trade site can be 100% accurate, not even 90%, it’s impossible. And yeah Christmas and Eid has become way beyond lucrative, cause except the films that are made in the biggest canvas(which has the risk of being either the biggest disaster or the chance of being the biggest grosser) like Baahubali, Robot 2.0 and Padmavati( which is big not because of Deepika but because of its scale and canvas) other films won’t come anywhere close to Christmas and Eid releases unless some films come with WOM like Dangal and Bajrangi Bhaijaan(which failed to be an ATHG in spite of being the most universal and best WOM film in decades. Ok let’s blame Baahubali for that, it’s fair enough). As I said before a consistent stardom spanning 2 and a half decades is more powerful than a blockbuster Local stardom spanning 7 years even if you give 50 blockbusters cause the audience is the same. Let’s see how long lallu lasts, time will say. And lastly enough of your “chutiyapa”,?? get lost from World’s Biggest Moviestar’s article and find some solace in Local star Non-Actor, Teesra Khan for 2 decades Lallu’s 7 year old Local stardom..!!! You are insulting yourself by commenting continuously after loosing your bet.

  • @NN
    Leave it now!!!!! Does this guy even know that RNBDJ had limited release and was released few days after 26/11 attacks?? Things got normal from Dangal only???
    Who says post ipl cant earn more than Christmas?
    Dabbang 2 earned 146 in Christmas. Just after 4-5 Months YJHD did 189 cr in post IPL.

    And if HAHK had SRK or Aamir it would have done 80-100 cr business.

    HAHK opened to only 9 lakhs. It didnt get much screens because exhibitors were afraid to give screens to Salman who had come after 7 back to back flops

    SRK or Aamir would have made it to at least 30-50 lakhs opening as they would get more screens.

    HAHK WOM=10 times of DDLJ wom, So hahk had potential to become 1st 100 cr in 1994 itself. But opening was so poor due to Salman’s fikka stardom in 90s.

    And btw CE was better than ETT, but nothing when u compare hahk-ddlj

    CE didnt get record opening by small margin, but at least opened BUMPER despite paid previews. Unlike Hum Madhuri ke bina hai kaun which opened 6 times less than Vijaypath same day

    And screens of hahk were less despite having Rajshree(MPK fame) because everyone knew Bhai’s stardom in 90s

    Okay @Indicine, I have said BHAI Now pls publish this

  • @nn whenever you srk fans start too loose arguement you start quoting worldwide figures. first you have to agree that srk is a non star in domestic market , then it comes to wotldwide. and as far as worldwide hgoty is conecerned it’s same for salman as they are in domestic which is 9. you have failed to explain why hssh and no entry are multistarrers so saying the same thing again and again does not matter. so the conclusion is salman has equal hgoty worldwide to srk but in domestic he is far ahead which is much more important. and salman will add more which is not going to be the case for srk.
    and today you have accepted the truth that films like ett and kick can only work with salman, with srk a role like tiger or devil will fall flat.
    boi.com is 100% correct. for 90% of films their figures are equal to producer figure. look at the figures of fan, dear zindagi, dangal and sultan they are same as boi.com figures. and after the incident of kaabil and raees everything is clear. even indicine after so many years quoting producer figures today they have rejected them and are quoting numbers almost similar to boi.com. you srk fans are confused because you know if you say that you don’t follow boi.com you will not be able to say that darr and mb are bbs and if you follow boi.com then you have to accept hny’s 36 crore and ce being lower than ett. i have no confusion, i follow only and only boi.com. i believe prdp failed to do 200 crore net and i also believe that the highest opening day, weekend all belong to salman.
    and please tell me one thing was ready an exceptional word of mouth film, then how despite of releasing niether on eid, diwali and x mas was the second hgoty of 2011 after eid release bodyguard .

  • @Indicine- Sorry if it bothers you, but kindly publish it. I have tried to be as decent as possible.

    @Dishonest Cow-Lallu has 9 worldwide HGOTY of the year..????? On which planet??? On which planet is HSSH and NO Entry a Lallu film? On which planet even a small “star” gives 6 back to back flops (in the 90’s) and more than 20 flops (in the 2000’s) in a decade? On which planet is a bigger star given less importance in a commercial film (as in HSSH and No Entry) unless it’s a cameo or extended cameo???? On which planet did I say ETT and Kick will fall flat with SRK in it? I just said that South remakes will disappoint SRK’s core fanbase and HNY would probably do better with Lallu in it since lallu fans like trash films which satisfy their hero-worshipping. Just like although CE was a big blockbuster many hardcore SRK fans still troll him for doing that film in spite of that film being better than all lallu films except Bajrangi Bhaijaan. SRK can do each and every trashy role lallu has done in his life except for Sultan because of his physique. But with lallu all the classic films SRK did will fall flat since lallu is a Non-Actor worshipped by rickshawalas. ANd BOI is 100% correct?? Then what is the real collection of Kaabil? I may accept Raees doing 131 crore as both BOI and other trade analysts to some extent match but what about Kaabil, which BOI says did something around 80 crore and others giving figures like 99/100 crore? I would rather believe Ra-One was a Semi Hit and Raees is a clean Hit. No trade site can be 100% accurate, unless someone is a blind Fanatic like you who idolizes a criminal. And yeah if something about BOI is 100% accurate, it’s their star ranking since they realized that lallu wasn’t a star before 2010. And let me tell you why Ready did so well, because SRK gave lallu that space and chance of overtaking his stardom by doing risky science-fiction film without any quality save for VFX which received the worst reactions from all quarters. SRK’s decline was started and initiated by Ra-One and lallu took advantage of it by South Remakes. Ready was a bad film, but it was a hit formula and more entertaining than Ra-One and Don 2 (unless you are class audience) put together.

    And why are you so desperate that you are breaking your word again and again? It hardly matters whether SRK will give another HGTOY again, which he may if God wills. No one can predict future. But he has already gone beyond boxoffice because of his quality. Bollywood has been globalized by him and he stands unique. I hardly care whether he does another CE ( which I also loved). I want him to do films like Dear Zindagi and Raees. What his films do on Non-Festive period are no longer relevant to me, cause I will watch it on laptop anyway, cause in my country, Indian films don’t get released. India, to me, is SRK’s country (No wonder Barack Obama mentioned him). And if anyone has accomplished that, his name is sure to be remembered years afterward.

    @Sayar-Don’t take offence bro. I am highly entertained by this kind of peculiar dishonesty which he is showing and I only argued because it’s an SRK article. If it was a lallu article I wouldn’t even give a ****. His desperation and dishonesty entertained me. That’s it.

  • @honest man : No point debating with these loons. They live in their own fantasy world where gangu teli is still a king and a Galaxy gigastar. Let them believe whatever they want to the reality is totally different. Despite no other Entertainment options except movie SRK could was totally giving mere hits and some handful of Blockbusters and now in this era despite various options of Entertainment and despite high ticket prices Salman and Aamir are giving consistent Blockbusters and ATBBs. That clears a lot of things that general audience no longer care for SRK movies as much as Salman or Aamir movies but his fans will never accept that. They still give example of some firangi fan praising SRK and some Pakistani moronic actress calling Salman with some absurd names. For them, these two are Global audience, that show the mentality of SRK fans specially a retard like @NN. Move on, they are good only at YouTube views, online polls, comment sections and nonsensical debates !!!!!!!!!!! Even their own gangu teli will laugh on them.

  • For @sayar & @NN : There is no one bigger illiterates than both of you. Read the below fact from Wikipedia about HAHK release and opening and get lost !!!!!!!!!

    Reception[edit]
    Release[edit]
    Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! premiered at Liberty Cinema in southern Mumbai on 5 August 1994;[17] it eventually ran there for over 100 weeks.[18] The film initially saw a very limited release, also showing at the Regal and Eros theatres,[19] with only 26 prints total.[20] Eventually it started to appear in many more theatres.[21] When initial viewers complained about the film’s length, 2 of the 14 song sequences were removed. These were later restored when film goers were found to enjoy all of the songs.[22] Early reviewers of Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! predicted that it would be a huge flop; hence the industry was stunned when it went on to become the most successful film of all time up to that point.[23]

    It was released on only 26 screens, get this fact into your heads and stop b@rking !!!!!!!!!!

  • @sayar srk despite of getting both the festivals of 2011 salman gave the second highest grosser of the year after eid release bodyguard . so the crying of srk fans that salman needs eid to beat srk is ridiculous. negative word of mouth cannot be an excuse because prdp also had that but still was not beaten by any non holiday release.
    dabangg 2 at it’s time was the second highest grosser of the year and the third highest grosser of all time while don2 with same release was not even the top three grossers of the year. dabangg 2 underpeformed but not to the extent don2 did. yjhd was released next year so the arguement does not stand. yjhd was a phenomenal success and did much better than dabangg 2 but it has nothing to do with salman’s capability, that was deepika’s capability who is the third biggest star of the country after aamir and salman. she has given three 175 crore plus films and one 200 crore plus films with non stars.
    every film of salman which has released on festivals this decade are either the highest grosser or the second highest grosser and even his non holiday release ready was also second highest grosser while srk’s festival release was not even in the top 3.
    srk has worked with yrf for 24 years but still has never given record breaking start. mb was affected by diwali puja and clash then what about mk which released on the same day and took a record start with the same clash. infact mb even opened lower than salman’s dhlj. he has done the same thing with dharma. yrf and dharma had picked srk from the road and had made him a star but srk always dissapointed them. he is ehsanfaramosh.
    even ce would have beaten opening record by few lacks it would have hardly mattered because ett and bg has beaten record by 45-50% margin while srk failed to set a new one, the fun is here.

    @nn salman’s hgoty worldwide are mpk, saajan, hahk, hssh,no entry,dabangg, bodyguard, ett, bb. among these saajan was multistarrer , infact it was sanjay dutt starrer as sanjay dutt was a way bigger star than salman at that time. but same goes to k3g, as hritik was a bigger star than srk at that time. but the other films like no entry, hssh are excuses. the things you are saying like giving more importance does not matter in terms of boxoffice. no entry with fardeen and anil would not have become the highest grosser of the year. salman was nowhere close to what he is today but still way better than anil kapoor of 2000 or fardeen khan. same goes for hssh. if you can counter my points with authentic boxoffice numbers then only answer my comments unless i am not going to hear those stupid things like whose role was more important. prove me how monish behl or saif ali khan, anil kapoor of 2000 or fardeen khan was a bigger boxofffice draw than salman in those period with right boxoffice numbers.

  • @ hritik you are right. on the same day vijaypath was released on 200 approx screens while hahk according to boi.com was released in only 35 screens. how can anyone expect a film releasing on that amount of screens to compete with films releasing on 150 plus screens in terms of initial( it’s like comparing a 1000 screen release with a 4000 screens releasing today) and whenever you will discuss with them about lifetime they will talk about initial and when you will talk about initial they will talk about lifetime. they say srk films are having bad word of mouth, ok then why ce failed to beat ett opening on the biggest natinal holiday of year ( according to them) eid. how many times you will see salman or aamir missing opening day record on national holiday, even hritik don’t misses ( agneepath on republic day) . they say srk films always take huge opening but he never gave record opening to yrf despite getting all those classics while the first salman and aamir film with both yrf took record opening start. even more fun is that they got their first record opening with abhishek bachchan, chullu bhar pani me dub marne wali baat.

  • @TikTik- Stop quoting HAHK’s useless excuses. You nuts still consider Yeh Lamhe hai Judai as SRK film when it got delayed for a decade and SRK didn’t even dub for it, but still consider HAHK as lallu film which didn’t even get a decent opening because of starring poor Flop-King lallu in it.

    You keep commenting on every SRK article as if Indicine is your father’s property. If giving 4/5 overseas blockbuster is called Global power then why don’t you become a fan of Aamir instead of being a fan of Criminal lallu? Lallu doesn’t have enough star power so you have to bring Aamir into it…!!! The same lallu who couldn’t give a simple “hit” with Aamir because lallu was born on 2010. Stick to lallu articles and don’t try to show your useless rants on SRK’s articles. Really the world (like CNN and Forbes) don’t care when SRK gets stripped at the US airport and Local star lallu is still the real star when the same US’s president quotes SRK’s name and dialogue when he visits India….!!!! I guess Barack Obama is a firangi fan and lallu is the real criminal gem of mankind…!! ???

  • @dishonest cow- In between MPK and Dabaang lallu doesn’t have a single hgoty worldwide to his credit. he has 5 hgoty worldwide. Almost half of SRK’s. Stealing credits from other stars have become a disease for lallu fans. of course the importance and length of a character matters for the lifetime collection of a film. otherwise why would anushka and katrina be given lesser roles in lallu films in today’s time? even deepika does lesser roles in ranbir kapoor starrers. Can you imagine today lallu or SRK doing supporting roles in Akshay Kumar films unless they are cameos/extended cameos? the credit for yjhd goes to ranbir kapoor who had the best phase at that time. otherwise deepika can’t even give face saving opening and lifetime to finding fanny, tamasha and her ambitious hollywood project. She doesn’t even have a solo 100 crore, forget 200 crore. if you can’t give madhuri, karishma, saif and anil kapoor their credit in their lead role then how can you give credit to abhisekh for Yrf film? and if that film’s opening credit goes to yrf then ett’ s opening also should be creditted to yrf. yrf and dharma’s reputation to this day is because of working with SRK. SRK’s films with YRF didn’t take record breaking opening because of clash factors and he won all the clashes. Even his home production has record breaking opening.Don’t come to me talking about lallu’s films before 2010 because before 2010 he wasn’t even a star and has nothing in his credit except MPK. If you can explain lallu’s back to back report streak of flops and disasters which were also multistarrers then comment. lallu couldn’t even make multistarrers an average grosser, then how can he take credit for multistarrer hits? lallu’s stardom is only 7 years old and can never match SRK’ s two and a half decades long megastardom….!!!

  • @NN : Indicine may not be my father’s property but neither your father’s or clan’s property too. This is the reality of losers like you when you do not have a valid thing or fact to defend you start dragging families and you call yourself an educated, class, NRI, global audience. I guess you stay in borivalli slums of Mumbai, even a lot of people from that area are much well behaved than you. Stop ranting defend with some facts. If HAHK is not Salman movie then DDLJ, KA, KKHH, DTPH, K3G are not gangu teli movies. The fact is Salman had HGOTY, a ATBB, HGOTD in MPK before HAHK whereas Madhuri had 3 huge movies in Tezaab, Dil & Beta but none of them were ATBB or have beaten MPK. Also coming to Karan Arjun, before this movie Salman had 2 ATBBs, 3 HGOTY & 2 HGOTD and your gangu teli gave first Blockbuster in Karan Arjun starring Salman Khan as well. So as per your logic, entire credit of Karan Arjun should go to Salman not sharing with gangu teli. First get your treatment and then come for debates. Last thing, take this as warning if you ever drag families into fan wars you are going to hear the words for which you will need google to know the meaning. Stick fan wars, don’t drag families.

  • @nn length of character can affect the lifetime but without a star the audience are not going to visit the theater. hssh had 3rd higheast opening day ever, 2nd highest weekend ever, highest first week ever which would have not been possible with saif ali khan and monish behl. no entry did not take any huge start but it has similar weekend collections to maine pyar kyun kiya which proves people treated it as salman film. when hssh trailer or no entry trailer came it looked as salman has a big role. public later went on to know that he did not have a big role, but till that time public has already come . without salman fardeen khan and saif ali khan cannot give the highest grosser of the year. or if you think they can then give me examples. even srk has no importance in deewana. he entered after almost half of the film was over, if that can be srk film then why not no entry.
    abhishek bachchan has given record breaking opening with his first film refugee, you may not know. he gave another record breaking opening in form of dus. so he has the potential which saif ali khan lacks. and i am not giving credit to abhishek, i am giving credit to yrf that they can give record opening even with abhishek but they failed with small star srk. salman has given two record openers just before ett came in a few time with dabangg and bodyguard. so what happened with ett was nothing new to salman.
    srk’s films with yrf and dharma did not take record opening because he is not a big star. clashes can not be an excuse at that time. because getting screens were not a problem at that time. and most important thing is that in that same clash , same day the other film is taking record start, then how can you give that excuse. for example mission kashmir took record opening clashing with mohabbatein a yrf film on same day. bmcm did the same against k2h2. kabhi alvida na kehna( dharma film) failed to beat krishh’s opening record and it was a solo release. now come with another unique excuse.
    and salman will beat the whole career of srk in this decade only, so why will i think about pre 2010 , i was just giving proper logic which matters for boxoffice.

  • @Tiktik-LOL at your desperation. WHo are you to threaten me? Do I care what you will call me? You are a mentally disturbed fellow which is proved by your comment in the Ted talk article. You have also forgotten to mention that lallu had 6 back to back flops before HAHK and 4 back to back flops after HAHK barring KA. Does saying the fact that whether Indicine is your father’s property equal to dragging/abusing families …?!!! :-O Mental people, anyway I didn’t understand the language.

    @both of you,– Yeah it’s true I am not an Indian but it hardly matters whether Tiktik believes it or not. The truth is I don’t even know lallu khan well. I have watched probably 95% of his films that too recently. So I don’t actually know that Criminal that well. And who cares? I am not jobless like both of you so I am drawing an end to this conversation. You too can comment whatever you like in this article, being the shameless rickshawalas that you are.. Yes the Biggest Moviestar in the World is a “small star “and 2010 born, 7 year old, Teesra Khan for 2 decades Gangu Teli lallu (who dependent on Papa’s favour and other stars’ “bheek” to survive) and Deepika are bigger stars. What’s the point of being a Global star when you can fascinate the likes of Tiktik and Dishonest Cow who are probably paid PRs to brainwash misinformed people cause they have all the time to spend in Indicine. My time is precious, so good bye. But I will keep abusing Gangu Teli Local Non-actor lallu whenever I get the time. Goodbye Cows. Wish me luck, I have a journey ahead.

  • @honest man
    Exactly despite MPK fame and Rajshree Salman couldnt fetch screens for hahk because exhibitors were afraid to give him screens as all knew he was not bankable in 90s . Thanks to wom and it picked up from 9 lakhs to 70 crores
    BTW what was the occupancy rate in those 35 screens day 1? Any idea?

  • Anyone can edit Wikipedia! Its not a reliable source!!!!

    One says 26 screens, the other says 35 screens. And they talk about illiteracy!!!

  • @Indicine-please post. I have edited my comment
    @DIshonest cow- It’s you who is putting one excuse after another. Even a 5 year kid can tell No Entry and HSSH aren’t lallu films.People might go on the first day because of him, but they would not go for the lifetime of the film. Who told you that if there isn’t a star then audience won’t come to hall? Then how come newcomers give hits or blockbusters? Anil Kapoor is a much respected star, and if Sunny Deol can give Gadaar then Anil Kapoor can also give No-Entry. If the film is entertaining enough audience will come. Do you have an example of a film in SRK’s career as entertaining and well made as Andaz Apna Apna that failed to become even a simple hit?You can take Deewana out of SRK’s filmography, that won’t matter. But in each and every HGOTY of his( including DDLJ, KA, KKHH, DTPH, K3G ) , he was the central character and the credit of the opening and lifetime goes to him. Lallu in the 2000’s was a smaller Non-actor(not even a star) than Abhisek, that’s why YRF didn’t even consider him before 2010 and cast Abhisek instead. And barking about SRK’s YRF films’ opening in clash, what is lallu’s record in clash??? He lost even to Rakhi Sawant. In every clash, audience have chosen the other actors’ film over lallu the Gangu Teli’s film. Which other Non-actor has the record of loosing so many clashes? lallu has only 5 HGOTY worldwide. Because before this decade he wasn’t even a star without the time of MPK. And it hardly matters whether in this decade he outperforms SRK or not, cause 25 year long stardom can’t be compared with 7 year old stardom.

    @Tiktik-LOL at your desperation. WHo are you to threaten me???? Do I care what you will call me? You are a mentally disturbed fellow . is proved by your comment in the Ted talk article. You have also forgotten to mention that lallu had 6 back to back flops before HAHK and 4 back to back flops after HAHK barring KA.And for your information Darr was SRK’s first blockbuster, not KA .Does saying the fact that whether Indicine is your father’s property equal to dragging/abusing families …?!!! :-O Mental people, anyway I didn’t understand the language.

    @both of you,– Yeah it’s true I am not an Indian but it hardly matters whether Tiktik believes it or not. The truth is I don’t even know lallu khan well.

But I do think that Deepika is a bigger star than lallu the Gangu Teli since she won a clash in “domestic” with SRK which lallu couldn’t achieve in his lifetime. What’s the point of being a Global megastar when you can fascinate the likes of Tiktik and Dishonest Cow who are probably paid PRs to brainwash misinformed people cause they have all the time to spend in Indicine. My time is precious, so good bye. But I will keep abusing Gangu Teli Local Non-actor lallu whenever I get the time. Goodbye Cows. Wish me luck, I have a journey and exam ahead. You should be shameful of calling Gangu Teli lallu a Star as his Flop list is longer than his success list.??? Now you will give example of Varun Dhawan’s success ratio, yes, I will consider Varun Dhawan a bigger star if his success ratio continues for 25 years…!!

  • @NN
    SRK had a 1 hr 20 minutes role in Deewana. How can you say take it out from his filmography? SRK was an important part of the film. Salman’s role in NE=SRKs in DZ
