Kick has collected around $3.1 million (Rs 18.6 cr) worldwide in its first weekend at the overseas box office, which would look disappointing as the film is not even in the Top 20 all time overseas grossers.
However, two of the biggest markets for Indian films, apart from US and UAE, is U.A.E and Pakistan. The Ramadan release has affected the film big time in UAE, while Kick is only releasing in Pakistan tomorrow.
There are reports coming in that the film will take a historic start in Pakistan, breaking all previous records of Hindi film released in the country. The advance booking is better than any film ever released in the country (including Pakistani film) and there are expectations that on Eid the film will be running close to full capacity throughout the country.
Overall, amongst all time openers, Kick stands at No 21 in a list dominated by Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan.
- Dhoom 3 – $10.3 million
- Chennai Express – $7.25 million
- My Name Is Khan – $5.4 million
- Ra One – $5.2 million
- Don 2 – $5.15 million
- Talaash – $4.9 million
- Jab Tak Hai Jaan – $4.7 million
- Om Shanti Om – $4.2 million
- Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna – $4.15 million
- 3 Idiots – $4.05 million
- Kick – $3.1 million (ranked at No 21)
Aamir And Srk Rock In Overseas :)
In the midst of kabaddi tournament comes a kabaadi film..lol
just like i said, SRK is God of overseas.
And then comes Aamir Khan.
others are no where close.
Its AAMIR KHAN at the TOP DHOOM3
That’s Prove “Salman Khan” is 3rd KHAN
Dhoom 3 Record in Trouble “Baab Of Bollywood” is Comming “With New Avtar” Happy New Year :|
Rip……..Salman’s Kick
“two of the biggest markets for Indian films, apart from US and UAE, is U.A.E and Pakistan”
Should that be “two of the biggest markets for Indian films, apart from US and UK, is U.A.E and Pakistan”?
MY REVIEW ON KICK:
telugu kick was more about comedy than action. But in hindi kick,you would find more action.
I was very much excited before watching the movie.it started well. But then it became flawed and then even more flawed. It’s a movie which is highly unrealistic,senseless,illogical and manipulative. If dhoom 3 was an unrealistic movie ,kick will be the “father of unrealisticness”. The first half was a major let down, it was boring.it tried hard to be funny,but not funny at all.second half was better than the first one.but it was not great either.
The technical points were not as terrible as jai ho,ready and ready. Still, The direction was below average. Screen play and editing were major let down. Many scenes were looking over-dramatic like the scene of devi’s mom reaction while seeing devi and his father in drunk state, the scene between the woman(who gave salman prices later) and salman in the temple.
The fighting scenes in the entire movie were highly senseless.devi,being a common man, broke the ribs,femur and girdles bones of the guards in the lab of nawaz. Moreover, Devil threw nawaz into the wall,which was again disgusting. There was a scene when randeep hooda tries to catch devil and the Bus,drived by devil goes through a huge destruction and fire after a blast.but there was not even a single damage mark on the bus.
As for the performances,nawaz siddiqui played his role well. Salman was good at action, suprisingly played the emotional part well too.jacquiline was looking stunning. Archana singh had a limited role,but even in a single scene,she has overacted badly.other supporting people were okay.
Music was good. Loved the picturization of hang over.
CONCLUSION:i thought kick will be different from salman’s regular masala.but, i was wrong. It is the most senseless big budget movie of the year so far. The good points were nawaz and those action scenes in 2nd half.
POSITIVE:
1.Nawaz’s acting
2.salman,jacquine and randeep hooda played well.
3.hang over track
4.stunts in 2nd half
NEGATIVE:
1.manipulative story.
2.senseless fighting scene
4.unrealistic screen play
5.incomplete editing
6.some over-dramatic scenes
7.direction was not clever at all
i am not strict, even i am being generous this time.
RATING: 2/5
Hny will take the top position like oso did in 2007
With due to respect to salman’s stardom if kick had starred srk or aamir then it would hv dfntly opened better.the last few films if salman were surely disliked by the overseas audience as a result a well made fiom like kick has opened well.but kick will definitely b liked by overseas audience and will become a hit even there.
If look at total collections then top 3 films are Dhoom3 wid 175 cr,3 idiots 164 cr and chenai exp is 3rd
Srk is yet to break Aamir khan’s 5yr record of 3 idiots(forget d3) in overseas for that he has arranged slam tours spending 175 cr on tour to break 164 cr 3 idiots and 175 cr Dhoom3 record

I love Indicine.But suddenly whats wrong with them? Why always giving excuses for kick failure. Bhai is not even in top 10. Kick overseas collection is ULTRA POOR
@indicine, list dominated by shahrukh khan and aamir khan?? Bitch please!!! Overseas = shahrukh khan!!! Having 2 top films in the overseas markets, one which is a sequel to the biggest franchise and the other which is probably the best made film of the decade and then not having any other film in the top 10 does not show dominance. No offence to aamir but this is the truth!!
kick is best remake of all times.
srk is the unbeaten king of bollywood
overseas is not much more important for Salman khan.
he always dominated in India. that’s why he is no 1.
You Know Why? SRK & Aamir Did A Lot Of Drama, Romance Movies… That Works A Lot In Oversea Market… So, Any Movie Of Srk & Aamir’s Works… Aamir Did Good Business In Oversea Market After 3 Idiots (A Drama Film With Romance & Comedy)… No, Reason… You Saw The 2 States’s Business In Oversea Market…That Was Awesome…So, If Salman Wants To Do Good Business Oversea Market Then He Has To Do Films Like (MPK,HAHK,HDCS) e.t.c … Action Doesn’t Works A Lot Overseas Market… Except Aamir & SRK’s Movie…Coz, They Are Biggest Star Of Oversea Market… But, Not Forget… What Makes Them Biggest Star (Drama,Romance) This Types Of Movie… Salman Has Some Good Movies Underline – Kabir Khan’s Movie-Not A Single Action Of Salman, Sooraj’s Movie – Family Drama & Also “Sultan” Movie With Shimit Amin… This Will Work A Lot In Oversea Market… Also, Shhuddhi Another Action Movie… Will Work Oversea Market easily If Past Including Movies Work…
We hope our kings movie hny will break overseas record of dhoom 3 but the only problem is there is no Aamir khan in hny starcast
any things to say lallu fan now u know who is global star 2005 movies r in top 10 then what is use of kick overseas 700 screen
i am salman fan but i agree on this fact that kick underperforms in overseas but in india kick has done very good collection
@Indicine is superb it takes loads of coment and does hard work to publish as much as they can
Legend Aamir on Top:)
So no point in comparing it with any film then….
It will get huge upward KICK in collections tomorrow domestic n abroad…. Cant wait…
dhoom-3 weekend=ek tha tiger lifetime aamir is true numbers in terms of acting and records
Overseas waale , here come Indiawaale … waiting for HNY…
The way SRK is gonna Promote HAPPY NEW YEAR through his tour #SLAM,, Records will not be broken…but will be Smashed into Pieces even if the Content of Movie turns out to be Pathetic…Datz SRK’s Power & Craze in Overseas.
*list dominated by SRK!! only aamir starer are talaash n dhoom 3. KING SRK rocks even a feb release like mnik released in about 500 screens on 3rd position
