Films that belong to a popular or successful franchise have a big advantage at the box office, especially on the opening day as fans of the franchise throng to theatres to watch the film in theatres.
Dhoom 3 got the biggest opening of all time – for a film belonging to a franchise, although Dhoom 2 in 2006 also took a record-breaking earth-shattering opening when it released.
The second film in the list is Singham Returns. The first Singham film opened very well, but the sequel – which released on Independence Day in 2014 – was phenomenal.
Krrish 3 stands at No 3, but the business of the film was affected by the pre-Diwali period. The opening of the previous Krrish (2006) film was even bigger and record-breaking. Back then, it was the first film to collect Rs 5 crore on its opening day.
Dabangg 2 set the record for the highest non-holiday, while Don 2 did very well for a film that released nearly 5 years ago.
Akshay Kumar’s latest release ‘Housefull 3’ finds itself below Don 2 and above Race 2 (holiday release). Welcome Back and ABCD 2 exceeded expectations last year.
Note: Advantage of a national holiday is around 35%.
| Movie | Collection | Release Period |
|---|---|---|
| Dhoom 3 (2013) | 36.22 crore | Non Holiday |
| Singham Returns (2014) | 32.09 crore | National Holiday |
| Krrish 3 (2013) | 25.5 crore | Non Holiday, Pre Diwali |
| Dabangg 2 (2012) | 21.1 crore | Non Holiday |

HRITHIK’S POWER & BIGGEST SUPERSTAR OF HINDI CINEMA
Krrish 3 did just 17cr on its first day. I still remember indicine reported how it was doing below expectations throughout the day but when the official collections came,they striked off those early reports and reported official manipulated collections of 25cr.
Big lol on hritik fans who think jadoo 3 did 244.
And again manipulation in bang bang.
The film was bad,it was facing clash,it got bad reviews all over still foolish hritik fans think it did 181cr. Any one with some knowledge of trade can tell it did only 141cr.
only dhoom4 can break the record of dhoom 3 or 3 idiots sequel also has potential to do that magic
Dhoom 3 collections on a non holiday was phenomenal but Dhoom was already a big franchise. Singham 2 returns look very impressive at number 2.
Don 2 is the best movie in that list quality wise for me.
The biggest under performer in that list is Housefull 3.
King khan’s DON 3 Will be beat Fan less Xmas superstar Aamir’s Dhoom 3 Franchise…

Always Expect The Father of All Crores The Unexpected Mr Aamir Khan You Know He is Top of His Game When Ever He Came At Boxoffice And DANGAL Is Coming Too !!;;
Never seen craze like dhoom 2
It was Hrithik magic, some theatres were running 24×7 at that time
Dabangg 2 collected 21.1cr on Non Holiday that too in 2012 and Srk collect 19cr in 2016….and his fans call him Duniya ka Sabse bada star (LOL)
@Challa, your comment shows how big stupid you are Dabangg 2 was a Blockbuster collected 154cr which your star is struggling (without Big Actress) to get that even in 2016 (Dilwale 148cr, FAN 84cr)…actually it’s a dream for your Srk who he will never achieve….and Don 2 which you call class (only stupid like you can call class such pathetic movie) was just a Hit and collected 112cr and everyone knows that it’s a RCE production (means huge manipulation)
@Runveer warrior
well it is expected from you moron because you are the fan of chichora Runveer…who is nothing without top actress Deepika and Priyanka. Runveer’s every movie is disaster. Actually deepika and priyanka were heroes of Bajirao Mastani…and they are the reason why it was hit. ha ha that runveer was looking like a chichora in the role of bajirao haha ha..
now compare it with Hrithik in Jodha Akbar. Hrithik looked like a real king and justified that role…whereas that chichora runveer looked like a chimpanzee….lol
Hrithik is baap of these runveers, varuns and ranbirs…ha ha . Hrithik rules bollywood. when hrirhik was ruling bollywood these chichoras were crawling on floors with milk bottle in their hands. There is one Hrithik roshan and there will be only one hrithik roshan…..many runveers many varuns will come and go but this legend of a man Hrirhik will always be there…..
These khan chamchas will always cry whenever their stars records in danger…they will cry “Manipulation”..”Manipulation” to save their fake records from being broken…. and this chichora runveer fan is one of them who is a complete mental…
Hrithik is number one and will be always number one…it is his fault that he is cheap bollywood . ahe should have been doing hollywood films with international stars.But he choose to act in bollulywood with chichoras….
Hrithik is like a lion whereas the likes of runveer , ranbir are monkeys…lol
Hrithik is number 1 and
chichoras runveers and ranbira are not even in top 10….lol
None of the above films were actually good.. Krrish 3 and Don 2 were decent ones.. Dhoom 3 and Race 2 come marginally behind them..
@fasal kerala at 3:31 pm, hahaha good on bro. Agree with u all brainless people in brainless emptyfull 4. Emptyfull 3 is the worst of this year and if emptyfull 4 made it will be worst of that year when it release.
You can’t compare an action Brand current senario to an out and out comedy Brand. Do you think if akshay releases a Rowdy rathore sequel it wont brake records? Action is currently the biggest crowd puller. Btw H3 has no hit song and the trailer was weak. Take all these into consideration
AAMIR – Christmas hero
Salman – Eid hero
SRK – Diwali/Eid/Christmas hero
but
Hrithik – Doesn’t need any holiday for his film release & only actor who gave blockbuster during non festival periods.
So he is d real super star of Indian cinema.
Krish 3 collection is such a manipulative. No movie in history has done such kind of manipulation. They have done manipulation from 1st day itself. The amount of manipulation that k3 has done is more than akshya kumar movie.
Actual collection=176 cr
Fake collection = 247 cr
Difference = 71 cr.
Bang bang is no more away from such manipulation. Bang bang also a movie which has done huge manipulation.
Actual collection =139 cr
Fake collection= 181 cr
Difference =42 cr
So, if there is hrithik means baap of manipulation. He is nothing without boxoffice manipulation and his papa. Now we can expect what type of manipulation will he do with mohenjo daro. Manipulation king #hrithik.
lol just look how butthurt these khan chamchas…
Hrithik is way ahead of these khans….when hrithik’s movie is about to break their records they will start to cry “Manipulation” “Manipulation”…..Lol then every bollywood movie records is manipulated… you know who is the biggest manipulators in bollywood …it is these shameless khans….its their plan to stop Hrithik at any cost. You cant beat Hrithik simple and fair…thats why they are playing this dirty game…
But can’t blame them….The fault is Hrithiks…Hrithik has been getting huge amount of hollywood offers. But he has rejected them all. There was a chance for Hrithik to fly with eagles( Hollywood stars) but he choose to fly with ugly crows (bollywood stars)…..
Good to know about Dhoom3 record but Sad that it was Copy of LeoDicaprio’s ‘Catch me if you can’.
@Salman Fan – 3:52 pm
Before abusing read the comments properly . He was talking about quality of a film not collection .
@xzone… Lol. Fan, Dilwale, HNY these were also Universal not niche like The lunchbox or others…. heeehhehe illogical logics of poor Fan.
Salman Ajay HR SRK has the real franchise
Golmaal Series,Singham (SoS next installment coming in Diwali 2017)
Don,Don-2
Dabangg Dabangg-2(Kick will be the another franch.)
Krrish
According to stupid Srk fans Danbangg 2 was a crap movie which was a Blockbuster and Srk FAN was a masterpiece which is FLOP, toh Bhai whom do you want to believe these few 2-4 Srk fans or those 2-4 cr Audience who make Salman movie Blockbuster…..
As I said Stupid Srk fans…
