PK First Day Box Office Collections: Early Estimate

Aamir Khan’s PK has collected around 27-28 crore (approx) on its opening day at the box office, as per estimates based on collections from a few centres.

The film has done well at multiplexes in cities, but the response was average at mass-centres. PK has collected Rs 1.38 cr in Rajasthan, while C.I collections are around 0.96 crore (96 lakhs). C.P is likely to be around 1.15 crore. 

PK has also performed very well in Mysore and West Bengal, where Aamir Khan commands a huge following. Business in Tamilnadu / Kerala was good, even though PK was competing against Rajnikanth’s Lingaa.

Film distributor and exhibitor Gaurav Gaur says “PK has under-performed due to severe cold in North India. Big centres were terrific on Day 1 and will continue to do well over the weekend. Single-screens in mass centres like C.P, C.I, Rajasthan were below par. Overall, a good first day for the film, considering the fact that Friday was a working day.”

“PK should collect more than 90 crore in its first weekend” he adds.

Note: The first day collections of PK are early estimates only. Final numbers will be published after a few hours.

  • With due respect to Salman Sir; I just can imagine movies like dabaang kick ett done by other top 65 superstars if Salman wasn’t d actor. But I can’t imagine other actors doing movies like Agneepath2 chennai xpres singham returns 3idiots mnik outim part1 pk gangajaal barfi ghajni etc!!! Those movies can’t b done by other actors apart from d original ones! But no doubt Salman has a loyal fanbase and a very transparent character.
    And yeah PK was nice! Beating kick record? I doubt…. Fingers crossed though

  • From early trends and reviews it can’t cross 300 surely and even 200 Cr should be crossed but entirely depends on single screen.

  • Pk will have a great weekend but there are several loopholes in the second half which will halt its business.most important single screens are not performing huge,so far opening is par with kick it doesn’t look that movie won’t sustain in long run like it was with 3 idiots so there are higher chances for kick to remain highest grosser this year .. !

  • Pk will be trend like kick movie.
    Not like HNY which has only decline in collection after first day.
    PK and kick both film has same universal appeal and praise. So pk wil target to chase kick box office record.HNY is not at all in competition as it wil easily beaten.

  • Pk is excellent film.

  • PK Cant be described in words. Its beyond the words . PK is the biggest masterpiece after Rang De Basanti,Lagaan,OMG (it was also masterpiece),Taare Zameen Par,Munna Bhai MBBS,Lage Raho Munna Bhai, 3 idiots and now #PK . Thank You @AamirSir @RajuHiraniSir for Giving us a MASTERPIECE and for teaching us very very very IMPORTANT LESSON.

    Cant say about its openinig day coz its a non-holiday release and very less promotions , the boxoffice collection of its opening day may cross 30 cr. approx. but i’m sure it will earn huge on Saturday and Sunday and May cross 130 cr its first weekend. till 2nd week it may 250 crores.( in India) and LIfeTime collection will be more than 300 crore. ( in India) worldwide it may cross 530 Crores. In’sha Allah.

    MY PREDICTIONS :
    1st Day-32 Cr. ( no-holiday release and less promotions)
    2nd Day-40 cr
    3rd Day-48 cr may cross 50 crs. (SUNDAY)
    Till its end LIFETIME DOMESTIC COLLECTION – 300+ CRORES
    WORLDWIDE COLLECTION-530+ CRORES.

  • Well movie is good till interval and that too cz of amir khans bhojpuri accent, after interval than its completely drag and predictable….
    Movie theme is same as Oh my god…bt what paresh rawal did in omg amir failed to do same in pk….
    Better watch omg again rather than pk

  • I’m hope you answer my question Indicine.

    When 3I came out, you didn’t really like it. And now your review says, we expect something as good as 3I.

    Why change opinion? That’s why I like Masand. He never changes his opinion. He also gave it 3.5 stars but said, it is hirani’s best after Lage Raho. Clearly indicating, he isn’t a fan of 3I.

    I have no issues on your personal opinion, but it hampers your credibility when you start changing your stands!

    • @Gaurravv, why depend on anyone’s review or opinion, when you can have your own? Go out, watch the movie and decide for yourself. For the last time, we didn’t like 3 Idiots on first watch (dropping pants, child delivery scene, balatkar / stan etc were some scenes that we didn’t like), but on repeat-viewing enjoyed it thoroughly.

      A review is just one opinion, which can change over time. We rated Om Shanti Om 1 star, we still stick to that rating. Bang Bang remains 2.

      Hirani films tend to grow on you, just like A.R Rahman’s music. A friend, who works for a production house, watched PK at a private screening and hated it. On repeat-viewing on Friday, he loved it. Can happen.

      As for Hirani films, Munnabhai MBBS remains my all time favourite. Followed closely by 3 Idiots and Lage Raho Munnabhai. PK doesn’t come close!

      P.S Tickets are easily available for all shows in Mulund. Go watch it!

  • ha ha pk will stop with in 150cr,even amir is better in crapiest talash2 which is far better than this unofficial remake of OMG ,crap pk.lifetime will be decided after Dec 25,still no chance to cross 150cr in boi.pk will sink from Monday onwards,talash2 is on the way,lol.overactor tingu is best in his overacting in pk however I still managed to see the 2nd crap half only due to know the full story,believe me raju/amir cheat audience in a good way,chor hai sab ke sab.

  • some people are so jealous then press thumbs down whenever they see PK written without reading the full content…some of them open multiple email add and giving thumbs down……so funny….

  • Can Pk, the well sripted, from a good directer, with more number of screens , with very good critics review,and positive wom ,break the worst scripted,with a worst directer, worstly reviewed by critics, and lots of negativity having film’ Happy New Year’ ‘s collection record in any aspects?

    the answer is simply ‘NO’.

    The super stardom of SRK work more than any other star’s stardom or content

  • Verdict time?
    Yea. Well I watched d movie and I must say it was quite interesting!
    Now that all d Khans have released their movies dis year I think its safe to say that kick will retain its grossing status as no.1. Have a feeling dat Hny and pk will b quite close in collections. As its known that usually its d STAR POWER/STARDOM status of a SUPERSTAR dat gives d 1st day and weekend COLLECTIONS d real numbers while d remaining days or weeks are strongly based on contents! Honestly any actor that gives above 20crores on day 1 and above 60crores on weekends really tells u how big and STAR-DRIVEN d actor is! So 1st of all KUDOS/CONGRATS for those that gives 20 and 60crores plus on day1 and weekend respectively!
    Its fair to say now that SRK proved he is d numero uno 1 CROWD PULLER in Hindi cinema today! SALMAN AAMIR AJAY HRITIK couldn’t deliver 40crores day 1 but believe me EVEN TO FIND YOURSELF IN A 30CRORES PLUS DAY 1 CLUB is an EXTRA ORDINARY ACHIEVMENT!! AKSHAY is suppose to b here too but unfortunately non of his movie is above 20crores plus day 1! But definitely he belongs in d league no doubts! RHANDBIR is okay where he is!
    Attaining 44crores day 1 is just awesome! Dhoom 3 is so far d highest grosser but I still believe SRK has an edge over SALMAN and AAMIR! Salman is a mass hero! Aamir is a qualitative hero while Srk was “born to act”! Am not saying he is better than them but if we r to follow certain parameters box office uses then its okay to say Srk is d biggest among them!
    1. SRK—- 5 century crores movies! Highest single day grosser! Among d topfastest century crores grosser! Highest weekend! 2 movies among top 10 highest 1st week!!… So no doubt he tops d chart!!!
    Next number 2. SALMAN—7 100crores! Among top 5 highest weekend grosser! Top 3 highest total grosser! And among d fastest 100crores grosser! Truly a loveable character!
    3. AAMIR– 1st 100crores debutant! With PK 4 100crores movies! Highest grosser till date with 2 200crores! Highest weekend grosser! Same with 1st week highest grosser! Truly a PERFECTIONIST!
    4.HRITIK–3 100crores movies! Top 3 1st weekend grosser! Top 5 single day and 1st week grosser!
    A real defination of a modern day superstar!
    5.AJAY–5 100crores grosser! Jointed top 4(30crores plus club) single day grosser! Top 5 fastest 100crores actor! Top 5 highest weekend grosser! Top 1st week grosser! Top 5 fastest century crores grosser! Not very consistant and shd b refusing some unecessary movies but witho
    ut a doubt one of Hindi cinema most talented actor!
    6.RHANBIR-2 100 crores grossers ! Top 10 weekend grosser! Top 10 fastest 100crores! Top 10 highest total grossing actor! A sure big name now and for d future!
    7.AKSHAY–one of my favourite!! 3 100crores movies! Top 15 highest total grosser! Top 15 1st week grosser! Top 12 1st week grosser! Top 15 weekend grosser! D real khiladi of Bollywood wit promising movies to come 2015!!
    STATS DONT LIE AND RECORDS R MEANT TO B BROKEN SO LETS SEE WHICH OF D NEW GENERATION ACTORS CAN EQUAL THEM OR BREAK THEM!! ONCE AGAIN FROM SRK! TO HRITIK! TO AKSHAY!! ALL OF THEM R D REAL MOVERS AND SHAKERS OF BOX OFFICE
    INDIA!!

  • It seems to me that all of u haven’t watched o my god that’s why u r calling pk is good..
    O M G is 1000000 times better than
    this crap one

  • below 34-35 i wud consider it as a disappointment… a big tym disappointment… now m fully sure dat pk wont cross 200 cr forget abt 300 cr….lol

  • the film is not close to 3 idiots but is still a good watch……repeat value may be missing……my rating is 3 stars…….

    weekdays would decide if it can get to 200 cr!

  • Though I don’t like Aamir but couldn’t resist the temptation of watching PK on the first day due to Hirani’s Munnabhai. I must confess; the movie does not live to the expectations of what Hirani is capable of. I am not saying this is a bad film by any standards but the fact remains; this is the worst outing of Hirani. The first half was impressive but the 2nd was a major letdown. The film will score when it comes to box office numbers due to the critical acclaim but I don’t see any chances of this film crossing 200 + (India) since the film does not have a repeat value. Also, at mass centers, the film is ignored completely.

  • @indicine
    I think collections of pk will fall a lot in second week.cause nowadays the no. of people who watch a movie after reading reviews is very less.n most of the people think it will be a good movie so they will watch the movie in first week itself….and instead of good wom negativity is created due its similarities with omg n comparison with 3 idiots…also ticket prices are way too much for a complete family to watch the movie at a time.
    Whats your take?
    This is my first comment on indicine….

  • @indicine: Bang Bang remains 2? ? You had rated 2.5/5, not 2. HNY was a huge Let down , each and every guy in my hostel didn’t like it.
