Ra One – 14.63 Crores on Day 1

Now this has not only surprised us, but the Day 1 collections of Ra One are pretty shocking. Yes, it was Diwali and the afternoon – evening shows were affected, but..

  • Ra One  released on close to 3500 prints whereas Bodyguard was released on less than 2000 (on Wednesday)
  • The ticket prices at multiplexes were about 10% more expensive than Bodyguard (the prices of tickets were increased just like 3 Idiots)
  • With 100% collections all over India, the total capacity of Ra One was around 34 – 35 crores. Which also means, at about 14.5 crores, the collections were about 35 – 40% for Day 1.
  • Bodyguard released at 1PM on Wednesday and didn’t have the widest of releases. Still, managed to set a record of 21 crores.

At worst, due to all the hype and craze, we expected Ra One to easily cross 20 crores.

On a more positive note, Day 2 collections (even for noon shows) had better occupancy and we expect around 18 – 20 crores by the end of the day.

Please do not misunderstand this comparison, we are only comparing Bodyguard to Ra One because the former currently holds the Day 1 record. This is not a SRK vs Salman battle.

  • All sharuk khan fan just chil … Even amir and salman can not defeat d great sharukh khan… So.. Let the…do lab lab lab… S.r.k. Rock

  • i dont know where and on what srk spent 150crores on this movie. it had nothing new except the two fighting scenes with special effects. in hollywood superhero movie they come to the point straightaway but in raone ist half is total crap with some crap dancing songs. story and srk’s acting both were awful. even i was expecting it to break opening day record but offcourse srk cant have on screen crisma

  • kuch bhi ho .. money koi bhi kitna kama le ..

    .. yeh sach hai ki .. sharukh se mast koi acting nai kar sakta ..

    .. salman sir ,, is best as rocker ..

    .. aamir .. hats off …

  • I’ll be inactive for few days..and I leave by quoting that ..Ra.One today has crossed 25cr and counting..acc to Komal Nahta..

    Haters SUCK IT…Ra.WON…

    Hurray

  • @indicine team : now the game begins , ra.one day 1 18.5 and day 2 crossing a whhooooping 25 crore(still counting)…. so what say guys , will it cross bodyguard weekend gross… ?? i think so …

  • stop spreading wrong news. despite of diwali pooja, day one collection:
    india- 18.5 cr
    wrldwide- 25 cr
    day 2 collection
    india- 25+ cr
    wrldwide- stil counting

  • ra 1 second day is looking humungous. I m waiting for 2nd day collections. Till now it has been sure that it will cross 21 crore at least. Its a great movie to watch n i loved it. I m going to watch it again on sunday. but for srk haters its definitely not good.
    @Awais
    Well said awais.

  • fuck off srk haters !!! 2nd day collection of ra.one —- near 24 crore !!!!!!! now what say !! srk rocked it !yeahhhhhh

  • its generating great response among audience….. ppl like shirish kunder & salman/aamir fans mind u——picture abhi baaki hai mere doston !!!!!! ra one will stand out as winner and don 2 wil be the ultimate winner !!!!!

  • @ aashkaran. Beta kaha bhaag rahe ho.. jaane se pehle Salman ko daddy toh kehte jaoo..come be a man stand on what u said. Boxofficeindia said 14.6 cr plus 1 crore regional so thats 15.6 crs after all promotions, high ticket prices, 3d and see what happened. I don’t care about what is the 2nd day figure will be.. my bet with you was for the first day and so be a man or Maaan ka dhoodh piya hai toh kaim raho apni baat per. So now accept ke salman tumhara or srk dono ka baap hai.

  • day 2 collections r looking much bigger. after watching r a 1 i can say its the best movie ever made in bollywood.

  • all u salman’s fans dont jump like a frog in rain. he’s having the power to change the bollywood. u people r saying only about dabang wanted and bodygaurd. before those every movie was flop. if i starts taking the names for srk movies then he will be baap of everyone.so picture abi baki hai.

  • well salman released bodyguard on eid n srk’s ra one is released on diwali…n we all knw tht population celebrating diwali is much larger thn those celebrating eid…
    thts why collection for ra one on the day of diwali is much less thn bodyguard on the day of eid cos ppl generaly prefer to celebrate any festival with family members n not by watchin a movie….(in most cases)…
    so now the real challenge for ra one starts when diwali is over n people start goin out on weekend….
    waitin to c how ths weekend proves out for ra-one n srk….

  • me and aashkaran had a bet on the first day total which he has lost. Now he was supposed to call salman his daddy and He ran away. I told everyone 2 weeks ago that the first day total would not be more than 18 crs.

  • ra.one is a will be a big hit of this year becoz ,ra.one frist day collection is 18.5 corore and 2nd day collection is 25 corore in india not any other country so just watch u all my friends how ra.one jump 2nd day and i m sure in 5 day ra.one break bodyguard records ……………………go ra.one and go king khan we all love u, you are a real super star wish u all the best SRK…

  • jab bodyguard jesi bakwash or boring movie chal sakti he to ye movie to bodyguard se hazar guna behtar movie he………..

  • @Salman fan the bet is on..and ra.one grossed 18.5cr incl all prints..so I win..dude check toi bollywood hunagama komal nahta..even ask Indicine..

    So Be ready to accept srk d baap

  • Also..every1..i m out of station..
    Plz mind comments made by my name..a duplicate is using my name to bring srk down..

  • zara sabar karo salman ke fan abi to sirf 3 deen huva he or movie ne lagbhag 50 corore ka collection kiya he or aaj ka pura deen abhi baki he fir dekh lena koan kitne pani me he east or west shahrukh is the best
