Sultan showed fantastic growth in business on Sunday, recording the same level of business as its first Monday. The growth from Friday to Saturday was huge, but more importantly, the momentum continued on Sunday.
The first Saturday (Day 4) to Sunday (Day 5) growth was just 4%, whereas the second Saturday (Day 11) to Sunday (Day 12) growth was a whopping 32% – which now gives the film a good chance of crossing the 300 crore mark.
The hold on today (Monday) too is excellent, with Sultan now running to 4-5 times higher than Great Grand Masti. In fact, exhibitors at multiplexes have replaced Great Great Masti with Sultan.
With the sex comedy underperforming, Sultan now has one more open week at the box office before the release of Dishoom next Friday (July 29).
At the end of 12 days, Dhoom 3 had collected Rs 241.93 crore (including all versions), while Sultan has collected Rs 263.23 crore in the same number of days. Dhoom 3 went on to add Rs 43 crore after its 12th day. If Sultan collects the same, it should finish with lifetime business of around Rs 305 crore.

Superb !!!
Today was the fourth death anniversary of Rajesh Khanna sir and I came across this nice article on him. He was called the “original” or “first” superstar of bollywood which is quite something as there were also some biggies like Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand before him.
I remember few days back there was an article here at Indicine in which Salman talked about the fear of losing stardom. This article also discusses the downfall of Rajesh sir so it is kind of sad to read that portion and reiterates the fact that every rise has a fall. But a nice article overall.
Below is the article:
“Never Give Up” Said Babu Moshai: The Rise & Fall of Rajesh Khanna
(By Khalid Mohamed)
Intermittently, he would play against his popular image. Think of the desperado on-the-run in Ittefaq, the serial killer of Red Rose, the macho truck driver of Dushman, and the more-salt-than-pepper patriarch of Avatar. He wasn’t always the lover boy who fell for the unapproachable heroine, and either lived happily ever after or capitulated to a terminal illness.
Ironically in real-life, Rajesh Khanna aka Kaka succumbed to cancer at the age of 69. The fourth death anniversary of India’s first certified superstar, falls today.
Branded as the monarch of romance, he actually eluded association with the vision of any one director. His major work was accomplished under four very different directors: Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Shakti Samanta, Yash Chopra and Manmohan Desai, who could handle the adored star-actor on recognising that he was a minefield of paradoxes.
Did the fact that Rajesh Khanna, named Jatin on birth, was raised by his uncle and aunt and not his biological parents, have something to do with this? Was he affected by his dire days of struggle before he was discovered at the United Film Producers-Filmfare talent contest? After all, as a college student he’d haunt the street outside the then-glitzy Gaylord restaurant, puffing away at the butt-end of a cigarette, hoping that he’d be somehow noticed by a film power baron.
For a teenager like me in the late 1960s, he spelt romance but with a difference. He was vulnerable, medium in height, a fashionista for ‘guru’ kurta shirts, he was the big brother whom we wanted to excel. Many of us in St Xavier’s college didn’t know the meaning of Aradhana (Worship, 1969) but since then the word has been yoked to Kaka.
The girls assembled in the St Xavier’s canteen were shattered though when he upped and married Dimple Kapadia. Their logic was it’s okay for him to get married on screen. Off it, he was their personal teddy bear. Some of them had even visualised themselves as his steady date Anju Mahendru. Really, the Rajesh Khanna mania was that intense, unlike any other.
Bollywood operates on Murphy’s law: if anything can go wrong it will. Rajesh Khanna’s professional descent was steady but sure. Amitabh Bachchan as the furious young man, extinguished romance with fire-engine speed. The Babu Moshai who was a support system to the imminently mortal superstar in Anand was sprinting way ahead. Lore goes that he replaced Kaka in Deewar. In a business where friendships are fickle, it must have been agonising for Rajesh Khanna to see his loyal directors switch.
Partly, Kaka was responsible for his own decline: he behaved whimsically and was surrounded by a gang of ‘tussi-great-ho’ chanting chamchas. His image was drubbed severely when Dimple Kapadia walked out on him. Unexpectedly, the acerbic columnist Devyani Chaubal, who would frankly proclaim that she was half in love with him, showered brickbats in print.
As a journalist, I met him during his on-the-skids phase. He was shooting at a studio for Dhanwan (1981). I’d been warned of Kaka’s mood swings. And I wasn’t disappointed. Shaking hands grudgingly, he groused, “So, now Filmfare is sending a bacha (kid) to interview me? Your seniors think I’m not big enough.” Next, he drummed away at an imaginary tabla beat on the lunch table for a minute or two, which seemed to last an eternity. Finally, he acceded, “Let’s get on with it.” The published piece was less than ordinary.
A couple of years later, I bumped into him accompanied by Tina Munim at a film preview. I was re-introduced. Tina Munim fixed a Q&A for the Times of India’s Sunday section at his sea-facing, reasonably well-appointed Aashirwad bungalow.
By now, the lost darling of the St Xavier’s canteen had recovered some ground with the success of Souten (1983). At ease he spoke his heart out on film producers (“It’s a rat race. Can’t blame them for ditching a rat who couldn’t race any more”). Without being asked, he chortled out a non-sequitur, “I’m addicted to sweets and silly jokes…but when it comes to acting in comedies, I end up looking bitter and serious.”
On the Sunday morning, the interview appeared, he called up bright and early. “I’ve cut and framed it.” he exclaimed. “You got the real me, you didn’t change a word. So, stay in touch.” That didn’t happen. After a point, he practically gave up on the movies, hurtled into politics as a member of the Indian National Congress. Stories circulated that he was doing okay in New Delhi and then not-so-okay.
The last time I saw Rajesh Khanna was five years ago at the Mumbai domestic airport, en route to New Delhi. He asked me with concern, “Why have you lost a lot of weight? Are you still working?” To that I answered, “Yes and no!”
Pause. He left smiling, “Oh that’s just like me, just like me, keep at it. Never give up.” India’s first superstar had a heart, perhaps too much of it. Only many of us didn’t acknowledge that when he was around.
@sss then indicine should also change ddlj from atbb to bb .isnt it? As ddlj too failed to cross hahk records. stop giving your views to indicine and why are you blackmailing and giving those statement that 90% will loose faith on indicine , if you have already lost faith during dilwale debacle the just get lost from here ,why are you barking child.

@sss

@sss
hahahaha frustration? 80cr lifetime and 263cr in 12days…hahaha.
Disaster and ATBB..HAHAHA
@KING KHAN
FAN WestBengal collection 80cr
Total all india collection 82 collection
Srk-bengali superstar
Box office collections of biggies after 12 days
Dhoom 3 – 241cr
PK- 256cr
BB- 259cr
Sultan- 263cr
Even after 12 days sultan manage to keep ahead of other biggies, but still few idiots think it is underperforming. ….highly intelligent haters…..
Lol manasvi remove 2rajkumar hirani
Movies and 1 dhoom franchise movie There u will see what kind of megastar is that..from 1989 to 2001(till lagan) only 3 hits ..his success began from 2006..
& how could u compare dabangg 2,Dilwale with pk/3idiots ..compare pk with bajrngi bhaijan or bajirao mastani these movies have excellent trend/content .do u think Talaash would be a 300cr grosser or all time blockbuster if it would released on Xmas
,?
@LOLmir
dekhte hein christmas pe …….kaun box office king hein
@sss : If u don’t have any valid excuses then manipulation excuse ? Lol. Looks like too much use of Burnol has gone from base to brain !!!!! ROFL
Too much fun !!!!!!
Srk fans are like char aane ki chicken aur baarah aane ka masala !!!!! Lol
I have a feeling YRF will put a stop at 298 like they did with ETT. BOI and every other trade sources said it would make 200cr but it got stuck at 198cr.
But it is good that is doing more business then i predicted! I predicted first 280cr but then later changed too 260 since yrf is removing 1-5 cr whenever they feel like.
I am not again Salman but
Lol !!! -73% only 4 crores. This shows so called megastar salman’s power. Seriously, his films don’t gonna work in week days, salman khan films rely only on big holidays or weekends and with no competition.
Aamir also falls in same category of releasing on big weekends and holidays, but he has acting skills.
SRK is better than these two, he is not scared of clashes or does not consider box office collection as stardom. He is true actor with good acting skills.
@tiger-the real chuha,still kya fayda?phir bhi 22 saal se struggle to kar raha hain na lallu ?????
Abe OVERASEAS mein KING KHAN clash ke saath 26 MILLION di thi.and clash mein 150CR in domestic di thi.
Let your lallu to give a simple 50cr film and 10 million overseas in clash,phir aaja compare karne.
so let’s talk about permanent things.till 2009 and till 2003 ,KING SRK was ahead of lallu in highest grosser.so these things will be permanent after the ending of career.
So let’s compare the permanent things —-lowest grosser
KING SRK’S 85CR FAN>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>37cr disaster veer(this decade)
4.5CR YLJK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>1cr disaster marigold(last decade)
4.5CR disaster>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>biggest LOGTD of all time 95 lakhs nischaiy(all time) rofl.
Dusron ki movies ki opportunity uthanewale,why you’re claiming Madhuri’s hahk got that much successful due to your non actor.
Madhuri got higher fees for hahk than lallu.
Madhuri got higher screen space than sallu.
Madhuri got Best Filmfare Actress for hahk too,but bhai got Ghanta for his robotic expressionless non acting.
Still no one can understand how hahk’s success can be given to sallu,w hose actual success was due to Madhuri and Family member’s performance to which lallu supported like a robotic child with a smile by over-shying like a 17 year old girl,rofl.
And besides that non of lallu movies till date able to surpass DDLJ ‘S FOOTFALLS.why because lallu was not the lead of hahk,as simple as that,cleared.
And so bhai has one hgotd—-mpk
he has also one LOGTD too among khans—-95 lakhs nischaiy,thag also will be taken into account,rofl.
sallu has—-5 back to back blockbuster (a unique record,though 2 out of them are south remake and rest all are masala genre,still no problem) in 27 years
But KING SRK has too a unique record that till now no one able to hold—-11 BACK TO BACK CLEAN HITS(excluding semi hits/average)in only 24 YEARS—-sallu failed to give his 6th clean hit with jail ho,rofl.
And that BACK TO BACK UNIQUE RECORD ALSO CONTAINS—-3 BACK TO BACK BLOCKBUSTERS—-CDI,OSO,RNBDJ—-AMONG 2 ARE CLASSICS,1 MASALA.
KING KHAN has more than double clean success than sallu along with 3 BACK TO BACK BLOCKBUSTERS.also KING SRK took risk and salman simply copied south heroes.so taking all into consideration and sallu spent extra years in Bollywood,
So KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>salman (sallu spent extra 3 years compared to KING SRK).
If still you want why salman is a small star
Then here is his record why he is called flopstar,because he has achieved even bigger record than this blockbusters and they re
salman—-decade struggle flopstar.who have back to back flops (8 times from 2000-2004,7 times from 2004-2007,4times from 2007-2009,3 times from 2009-2010) in last decade—-a record breaking flop/disaster star.tell me which MEGASTARS at giving these type back to back flops/disasters?????and give thanks to me that I didn’t go back to 90’s flops,rofl.
So KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>sallu
And finally sallu has 23-25 clean hits<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>19 flops+0 disasters—-ALL TIME SUPER HIT STAR.
and sallu’s struggle—-1 entire last decade
KING SRK—-RULER OF THE GENERATION/ALL TIME DECADE RULERS
KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>sallu(even though KING SRK spent 3 years less in the industry)
ha ha ha ha talking about trending records rather than (real stardom showing opening day).
From 1992-TILL NOW—-BIGGEST MEGA CROWD PULLER OF THE GENERATION KING SRK.
KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>sallu
CLASH—-KING SRK —-KING OF CLASHES.
sallu—-all time clash loser.
And defeated like a shameless in DON VS jaaneman(multistarrer),CDI VS marigold.
And OSO VS aawariya(is not a bhai film,as no entry is not added as bhai movie earlier),so this is excluded.
Ok still if we’ll compare year wise from 1992-2016.KING SRK VS salman only.
1992—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>salman
1993—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>salman
1994—salman>>>>>>>>>>>>KING SRK
1995—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
1996—salman>>>>KING SRK
1997—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
1998—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
1999—salaman>>>>>KING SRK
2000—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2001—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2002—–KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2003—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2004—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2005—-salman>>>>>>>>KING SRK
2006—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2007—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2008—-KING SRK>>>>>>>>>>>>salman
2009—-KING KHAN has no films.
2010—-salamn>>>>>>KING KHAN
2011—-salman>>>>>>KING KHAN
2012—salman>>>>>>KING KHAN
2013—salman has no films.
2014—-salman>KING SRK
2015—-salman>>>>>>KING SRK
2016—-salman>KING SRK.
in 25 years long career (1992-2016)—-
KING SRK —-13
salman—-10
Means KING SRK remained 3 AHEAD of salman.
So KING SRK VS salman—-KING SRK is the clear winner.where is sallu?????,rofl.
@mekanik:
#indicine said excusewale would be a either average or hit with 150cr collections. Hence, later they had chosen a mid way and declared it semi hit. see here http://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/dilwale-hit-or-flop-box-office-prediction/.
And #indicine said that SULTAN needs to collect around 300cr to attain ATBB verdict. Even with less collections if it performs well in overseas. They never said SULTAN needs 310cr, you chameleon liar. Check here http://www.indicine.com/movies/bollywood/sultan-budget-screens-hit-flop-business-economics/.
Why don’t you share some links to prove that Salman paid critics to thrash GGM & doing manipulation for SULTAN, if you are ek Baap ka beta???
@2:48 you loser, how many movies so called Raju HiranI has done without megastar? Only 2. One was a supercity and one blockbuster. But after he associated with aamir, he got ATBBs. So Aamir has made Raju HiranI a big director. Dhoom franchise is nothing in front of brand aamir khan. It’s aamir who could make even a crap movie like dhoom 3 ATBB. And why talking about talaash? Isn’t main Aur Mrs khanna, jai ho, veer, yuvraaj, marigold enough for you loser lolman fans? Stay in your limit. If those movies are because of Raju HiranI and dhoom then lolalman’s whole career is dependent on rajashree banner, suraj, Kabir khan and south remakes. How about that?
@mekanik:
Idhar udhar ki baatein Sodd. Let’s make a brief comparison between Bhai & srk’s career and make it “Doodh ka doodh aur paani ka paani”…….
HGOTY:
Bhai- 9.
Srk- only 4.
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
HGOTD:
Bhai- 2.
Srk- ZERO (LOL)
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
ATBB:
Bhai- 6.
Srk- only 3
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
Blockbuster+:
Bhai- 13.
Srk- only 8
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
Clean hits:
Bhai- 29.
Srk- 27.
Bhai>>>>srk.
300cr grosser:
Bhai- Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
Srk- yet to touch even 230cr mark (LOL).
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
200cr+ grossers:
Bhai- 4.
Srk- only 2 (that too with the help of Laal Mirch calculator).
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
100cr+ grossers:
Bhai- 10.
Srk- only 6.
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
Back to back blockbusters:
Bhai- 5.
Srk- only 2.
Bhai>>>>>>srk
Back to HGOTY:
Bhai- 3.
Srk- never
Bhai>>>>>>srk.
30+cr single day collections:
Bhai- 16.
Srk- only 4.
Bhai>>>>srk.
Top 10 highest single day collections:
Bhai- 7.
Srk- only 1.
Bhai>>>>>srk.
Bhai never failed to surpass 100cr mark since he has joined the club. But srk failed big time with Fan.
Srk has been struggling for a HGOTY since 9 years. Bhai has never seen such ” BUREY DIN “.
Also his lion’s share of hits are yrf-dhama products. While Bhai always works with newcomer directors/heroines and unknown banners.
Bhai is miles ahead of him in each and every department…!!!
P.S- Data according to #indicine..
@tiger-the real chuha,my earlier comment proves you wrong your latest comment.idhar udhar baatein chor ke again check,rofl.
