@tiger the real king, shaggy: Really?? You guys still have these excuses! I pity on you people. Have a good sleep, I am sure, you guys haven’t had in a long time! @bulli: dude, where r you now? LOSER!!
Somehow I feel we have lost the innocence of watching movies. I remember clapping at the climax scene of Chak de India or laughing out loud during 3 idiots.
Congratulations HNY for record breaking movie, but I’m interested in watching ‘fan’ where we will see SRK, the actor not SRk, the star.
@Shaggy yes bro 50 cr on first day prep .
Even more
Good to see babaji out of Bang bang hangover
Krrish 3 – Same Day 36 Crore From 3800 Screen 4th Day..
And
Happy New Year On Day After Diwali 44 Crore From 5000 Screen 1st Day
So Whats The Big Deal ..
300 Crore Is Impossible ..
I Watched It. It’s Really Look Like Movie Of Year 2005 ..
So Boring And Cheap ..
Bhaitard Kehne Wale Srk Ka Hater Salman Se Kayi Jayda Neeche Girr Chuka Hai ..
AWESOME SRK rulz
Tiger first u expected it to collect somewhere near 30 then u were disappointed because it was less than 40 and now u expect more.
One more thing its just that 3.7 billion people know him, it is nowhere mentioned that they are his fan so chill.
@Indicine
I have a doubt. Please tell me. I heard Taare zameen par was made on budget of 8 crore rupees. IT went on to collect 63 crores. On the other hand Dhoom 3 was made on budget of 120 crores and it collected 282 crores. Technically TZP collected 8 times its budget, so should it be considered a bigger hit than Dhoom 3?
I think SRK’s next will do the same thing. It wont make any records but will be extremely profitable venture.
from seeing today’s collection the film dropped by around 80% .
from seen the trends the film will huge collapse today’s collection will around 5-6 cr .
seems like people are saved
Yessssssss…. now where are those which were saying collections will be less than 40 cr. This is no common man entry, this is KING Khan Entry. And plz don’t yell it yourself and your stars, coz no one dare to stand to SRK.
be patient and see the rocket Sky Box office Collections.
LOVE u SRK and all FANS. This is our Jeet.
Okay no doubt collection is extraordinary… Now I want Salman too release his movie on national holiday with 5000 screens definately cross 50cr on a day…
I predicted 45crs before 3 days
Lol at Lallu fans! YRF is now inflating figures??? hahah. They could not say the same thing when the same ‘YRF’ was behind ETT and Dhoom 3 too. where was the inflation at that time? Double Standards to the core!!!
Guys you r just mocking yourselves up!! Accept the defeat and stop blabbering nonsense! It’s time for you guys to have a good sleep. You musn’t have had one in a long time!
2nd day 42cr
Now srk is the king of manipulation producer figure is 44.97 and trade figure is-
Top Opening days (trade figures):Happy New Year: 37-38 Crore
Dhoom3: 31.86 Crore
Ek Tha Tiger: 30.62 CroreChennai Express:30.48 CroreSingham Returns:30.43 CroreBang Bang: 26.52 CroreKick:25.99 Crores only after monday you will get real fate for this movie.
@Shaggy Oh Mr what the hell r u doing here
You predicted 33 crs and u said u will indicine
And PRDP won’t collect 50 cr coz its not masala movie so stop living in your dreamland
See this frustrated loser @Tiger the queen He has lost his mind :P
@vikram u celebrate ur success but can’t talk like that to others
N that’s why he is called KingKhan! N this movie hopefully will prove that STARDOM + ENTERTAINING CONTENT is bigger than anything else. Gotta respect Salman’s stardom in India but his movies’ content has seriously been disappointing n the movies have worked only coz of his stardom. Congrats to HNY team n SRK FANS! May this become an Alltime blockbuster!
@ Indicine look at my comment in your earlier articles
My prediction
42 crs Hindi
3 crs Tamil and telugu
Total 45 crs for Opening day of HNY
The result is exactly the same…..
King is back with bang
Abhishek bachchan is the luckiest man on the earth..
Gets Amitji as his Dad;
Get Aishwarya as his wife;
Gets record breaking D3 with Aamir;
Now gets record breaking HNY with SRK…
Congratulations to Nandu n Mohini are the order of the day for making this crapgiri film half bearable…. Your sublime acting was in stark contrast to the hamming n overacting of 1 or 2 of your support cast…! Well Done Guys
But it’s a boring movie
Ha ha ha.. Hny>kick+jai ho 1st day collection.. Too much fun.. Cheers all srkians and thanks to all non srk fans who congratulated srkians specially nipun, babaji and others..
woow amazing amazing 300 cr
Happy New Year Movie Review: A Perfect Revenge Saga
Finally, the much promoted movie Happy New Year (HNY) was released on Friday! We watched the movie at 7:00PM of the day. Let’s review the movie and talk about my experience! Sorry guys for giving my review late!
The film is about a bunch of six losers (I am not saying this but the film is) trying to become winners once in their lives. Hence because they believe in the saying that every loser has a chance to become a winner!
It starts with the interpretations of the WDC (World Dance Championship) or Dabboo DC by Charlie urf Chandramohan. And then, there are the hosts (i.e. Dino Morea and a Woman) making announcements about the Dabboo DC. Every time the woman announces something, Dino Morea interprets them into Hindi. I wonder why somebody needs to interpret the announcements in Hindi if it is a Dabboo DC. If the interpretations are necessary, why not in other languages such as Russian, Mexican etc as well? After all, it is a Farah Khan film???
Then, the character of the Charlie, this time not as a joker Charlie chaplin, but as a boxer is introduced. A graduate from Boston University yet a loser and earning professions through boxing! He is introduced with a boxing match that takes in mud. In the fight, the malnourished and skeleton charlie beats big people to pulp, his one punch breaks the backbone of a man who is triple his size. The fight highlights his malnourished physique with his over grown and obvious nipples.
Then, Charan Grover (Jakie Shroff) announces on TV that he is keeping his diamonds worth hundreds of crores in the extremely secured and safe Antique Washing-Machine Turned Vault in the Hotel Atlantis in Dubai. At the same time, he announces that the Dabboo DC will be held in the hotel Atlantis. Don’t ask why somebody announces and tells others where he saves or keeps his properties such as money or diamonds literally to invite the attentions of the robbers. It is a Farah Khan film! Questioning is prohibited!!
His father (Anupam Kher), who runs a business creating sturdy lockers, is duped by the evil businessman Charan Grover (Jackie Shroff) and hurtled off to jail for a robbery he didn’t commit. Charlie’s idyllic life is destroyed and he dreams of bringing down Grover. So, as expected, the announcement by Charan attracts the attention of Charlie and he wants to revenge Charan Grover by robbing the diamonds.
Then, the character of Jagmohan or Jag (Sonu Sood) is introduced. He is an ex-army officer and retired from the army because he has lost his hearing as he tried to defuse a bomb in the army. Now, he works with Director Sajid Khan as a staff to blast dummy bombs in the film shooting. The name of Sajid Khan’s movie is called “Haa Haa Hee Hee.” This sounds really interesting and better than original movie ‘HNY’ itself. If the movie is happening, I am looking forward to it!
Then, the character of Tammy (Boman Irani), a 50+ Bachelor Babaji (Ka Thullu), expert in cracking codes and non-senile specimen of masculinity in their ‘hood’ whom sex-starved Parsi ladies lust after is introduced.
Afterwards, Rohan Singh (Vivaan Shah) or Justin Bieber Wannabe Introvert Nerd Hacker is introduced.
Then, Nandu Bhide Dimak Mein Khide (aka Abhishek Bachchan) is introduced. He is good for nothing except for the fact that he resembles Vikki Grover, the son of Charan Grover, in appearance. He is shown to frequently vomit at any time after consuming alcohol. It is absolutely disgusting for the viewers.
Tammy and Jagmohan were ex-pals of Charlie’s father. Rohan is the nephew of Jagmohan! And Nandu is a person that Charlie has met at a festival event.
Charlie, the chief loser, gathers all other four losers and assembles them as a team to pursue their dream of becoming winners. Audiences should have deja vu moments. It is exactly like the film ‘Players’ in which the film main hero gathers the people of different talents to commit robberies.
Then, they become a team and start their dance rehearsal and studying the structural map of the hotel Atlantis. They hire different dance teacher to teach them dancing! But none of them seems to be successful in making them into dancers.
But hereby, the Director Farah Khan ridiculed and insulted Saroj Khan and her choreographic skill by making fun of her songs. Again Deja Vu moment!! Alas, she even insulted the veteran Manoj Kumar in OSO!! Farah Khan, Madarr Chod Na Yarr!! It is high time for you to do so.
Then, the character of the much-awaited lead actor of the film, Mohini, is introduced. She is another loser and brothel pool dancer just trying to earn Ijjat by shaking her bootiyas, hips and two melons in the brothel. She dreams of opening a dance school for children so that they can earn Ijjat by shaking their bootiyas as well.
It feels like Mohini is a second birth of Meenamma of Chennai Express! She rapes the Tapoori Hindi Language the way she did the Tamil Language in her previous Janam! She has put Rakhi Sawant into shame!
When the Charlie meets her to make her their dance teacher and a part of their team, she immediately falls in love with him because Charlie knows how to speak English!
Alas, I also speak English. I wish some girls for me because I speak English! Till date, it has not happened to me because of that skill of mine! I don’t think it has happened to you either! It took me a lot of effort to make my GF falls for me.
Mohini even likes the insults if they are in English! She is simply BREAST-taking, HIP-notizing and CLEAVAG-ing!!
So, she has become a part of their team. And then, now they are a bunch of six losers! They get admission to the Dabboo DC representing India by conning the secret gay-couple cum Judges: Anurag Kashyap and Vishal Shekar (in cameos)!! And Public Votes were manipulated by the nerd hacker Rohan Singh in favor of their six-loser’s team.
Then, they move to Hotel Atlantis, Dubai to take part in the Dabboo DC. They have to compete with the teams from all over the world including North Korean team, Russian Team, Mexican team etc. The plot to rob the diamonds goes on as they take part in the dance championship.
The team take duplicates the finger prints of Vikki Grover sending him into anesthesia. Pretending as Vikki, Nandu, among the heavy securities, goes into the place where the Antique Washing Machine turned Vault is located. The hacker deactivates the laser shield for Nandu protecting the vault. Nandu advances to unscrew the iron shield blocking the AC Duct so that Charlie and Tammy inside via the channel. Then, Nandu leaves.
Charlier and Tammy remain inside to rob diamonds. They robbed the diamonds and soon, they are stuck ad locked in the Washing Machine as the time is up. Then, Jagmohan sends water inside the Washing Machine by switching the channel of the Water Pipeline. The Washing Machine is now full of water and Tammy and Charlie swim upwards and come out of the washing machine by blasting its cover with bombs.
Then, they participate in the final of Daboo DC. They win.
Charan Grover and Vikki Grover are accused of robbing their own diamonds and imprisoned for lifetime in Dubai.
The team of the six losers has now become a team of six winners. Because they believed in the saying haar kutta ki din hota hai! As simple as that! The Revenge is taken!
The Revenge is Taken! The Revenge is Taken but not by Charlie against Charan Grover but by the great Farah Khan against the Sarkar for attacking her husband from behind at a party few years ago.
Leave your whole brain at home if you want to watch the film! It is painfully lengthy and boring! If Dabangg 2, Bodyguard and some Akki films are illogical and senseless, this film is set to squarely defeat all these movies in terms of stupidity, silliness and senseless.
If Bang Bang has too many action scenes, this one has too many silly dance scenes. Last but not the least, the basic plot of the movie is plagiarized from Ocean’s 11.
I predict it will crash badly from Monday onward after initial craze on the weekends!
Positives:
-Maanwa Laage Song
-Some Boman Irani Jokes
-Prabhu Deva’s Cameo
-Gauri Khan’s Cameo
-AbRam Khan’s Cameo
-Fight Scene with a Korean Guy on the top of the Hotel Atlantis
Negatives:
-No Original Dialogues, All Dialogues are refurbished from his earlier films
-No Story
-Bad songs and Music
-Forced Chemistry between Charlie and Mohini
-Slapstick Sajid Khan Style Jokes
-Fake and Over-the-Top Drama and Emotions
-Fight Scenes that will prove Newton’s Laws wrong
-Malnourished Greased Skeleton Show
-Sajid Khan’s Cameo
-Mishmash of Players, Cash and Ocean’s 11
-Abhishek Bachchan
-Disco lights throughout the film
-Many others!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: 1.45/5*****
Oh my god ..what just happened yesterday…Congrats Indicine your prediction of 42 + crore has come true….did not expect this figure…but yes i know it had the capacity to do so…releasing in 5000 screens just in India has done the trick and that is a achievement and they have done it.
No doubt on SRK star power but other Khans and HR are no less than him. Finally screens and content do matter. Hope other stars also get that much number of screens for their next release.
And as predicted, it can collect more than Dhoom 3 in 3 days but can’t collect 100 crores in 2 days..it will take same 3 days like D3 to go over 100 crores. So next record in hand to be broken is first week. I dont expect other records to be broken.
OMG !! SRK and FArah have raised the bar to another level…..SRK deserve all these !! King khan all the way !!
@dynamic shivers
Mars is abit too far fetched kid- but dont worry there is a worse hellish like place on Earth for me to spend the weekend as punishment n that is Paglapur…! I can work at one of the many dozen Youtube Enslavement Camps and join you by becoming ‘baby’ this and ‘shivering’ that to ‘junior’ this by spending the weekend liking HNY videos on Youtube… Its gonna be hell to work alongside you but fun to see how quickly you change IDs n become ‘baby dynamic’ etc etc
