Can My Name Is Khan beat 3 Idiots is the hottest topic of discussion around, both in the trade and Bollywood websites.
But the benchmark that Aamir Khan has set with his last two releases is so high that any film hoping to break those mind-numbing records would need the following
1) Huge Star – Which MNIK does have in Shahrukh Khan
2) Great content and word of mouth – Very important. All the initial reviews of MNIK, so far, are good.
3) Mass Appeal – Both Ghajini and 3 Idiots had tremendous mass appeal and did great business at Single Screens in smaller cities too. MNIK is unlikely to hold the same appeal.
4) Repeat Value – 3 Idiots had great repeat value, many watched it multiple times in theaters.
5) Ticket Prices – The hike in ticket prices helped 3 Idiots greatly, but unless the film is liked greatly, it could put off a certain section of the audience.
What do you think, can My Name Is Khan beat 3 Idiots?
@ dipen sen ……..i m not a fan srk…….i m just having my opinion on mnik…….
@Aman………….Also advance booking of mnik is so poor bcoz of shivsena threat . Also we are not sure that the film will release or not in maharashtra . (25%-30%) share coming from maharashtra in all over India . So just hope for the best .
I think my name is khan beet all records.dont warry srk fan be confidend
Unknown,Dostana worldwide nett is 40 Cr.
In India mnik has to earn 75 Crores nett ..Also Dostana is a masa la film . mnik is a opposite kind of film .
Another prediction on MNIK::::—
IN india::
single sceen::Disaster
Multiplex::hit
in oversees:::All time blockbuster
Dipen,dostana was also rejected in single screen.n don’t u think srk-karan r bigger gay icon than jhon-abhi.so atleast it will earn twice than dostana in india….:)
gonna set new records sure
i dont think it will break any records but it might do a good business,even coming close to ghajini is a mountain to climb,let alone 3i, 3i is a pride of the globe.
SALAAM 2all
whatever controversy or publicty behind mnik is created
it will never going to break even ghajni record 3 idiots is to far …
3 drawback for mnik
1st board exams of ssc and hsc in maharashtra going on and in many teritories scholl and colleges final exams is near by.
2nd mnik doesnt had impact like ghajni and 3 idiots with no vacations week like this two films
3rd except srk ordinary man act , mnik common plot of 9/11
one more drawback to mnik in overseas an hollywood film is in competition
i dont know the exact name of movie but i think its name is valentine it has gr888 actress of hollywood julia roberts …it can give competition to mnik .
Paid preview:3 Crores…
Friday:11 crores…
Saturday:10.5 crore…
Sunday:12.5 crore…
Week 1::- India::-50 crore…
Oversees::-40…
Week 2::-India::-15…
Oversees::-30…
Total:::::–India::-80 Crore…
Oversees::-90 Cror…
Verdict::Semi hit/Hit…
Aamir khan is number 1 right from ghajini time………..But he might lose his position becoz in 2010 there are no major release of aamir……………actually its tough to say……….becoz MNIK and Kites are not for Indian audience.those unlikely to beat 3idiots records………but in oversees those film will do record breaking business…………
@shahid ………. mnik needs 100 crore nett in worldwide to get hit status . It is impossible to me .
3000 prints seems not to be impossible .
aamir khan comes in suprise with two small budjet multiplex type movie dhobhighat and peeplilive i am not comnfir of aamir in film but from somewhere i hear it if it has aamir then
both were small budjet film but had agr888 impact and INSHAAALLAAH wiil biggest surprise blockbuster of 2010
@shahid ………. you are wrong
Since 2006 aamir is no. 1
2006- rang de basanti & fanaa two blockbusters
2007 – Taare zameen par blockbuster
2008 – Ghajini all time blockbuster
2009 – 3 idiots all time blockbuster
Afridi……..peeplilive’s budget is around 8-10crores…………
and dhubi ghat’s budget is around 15crores…….
those film will have limited screen release india & oversees…….
its interesting too see how those films work………….
i think it will be super hit in india at least …………
dipen,u r wrong…..
becoz, in 2006 its hrithik with Dhoom2 & krish………
AND in 2007 ITS srk with oso & chak de india……
becoz i taking about only boxoffice wise………
yes its true that aamir have more quality of works then any other actors…………
but number system goes by boxoffice wise………….
Both films can not be compared. I think MNIK will break ghajni records. In overseas market MNIK will break 3i record but not in India
indicine advance booking open hua toh kya hua . Audience apna life ki risk lekar film dekhne jayenge Maharashtra mein . Kya zindegi se bhi pyari film . Mein toh kehta hoon jaan haat mein lekar koi film dekhne maat jao . Ghar mein rahkar DVD , PIZZA & cold drinks ka majaa lena achcha hai . Good wisher for everyone .
Komal Nahata kitne paise liye SRK & KJO se joh itna JHOOT bol raha hai 80% advance booking bakwas .
taran adarsh ke chote bhai lagte hai .
Mahrashtra mein 5% advance booking nahi hua .
how we can believe that lier taran adarsh & komal nahata .
no way, im shore about punjab & new delhi also in mahrashtra
For those of you arguing, here is an article that says that MNIK has more advanced booking all over India than 3 idiots by 20%.
I’m not a fan of SRK. I’m a fan of Indian movies and everybody does good movies, regardless whether it’s aamir or srk. But fact is fact. This article is from the business standard, they’re usually very reliable.

it can never beat ghajini or 3 idiots record.But may be it can break record of DULHA MIL GAYA.”amritsar se america hil gaya”
mnik will break the 3 idiots recorsds easily, becoz srk is bloody dammn good actor. no one near him in star power.
hello
in discovery fri 8 pm ist look the 1 hour full epissode on srk.
dipen
plz say more bad about mnik. i like when people say some bad about srk. becoz sinner never believe in god.
i completely agree with DIPEN SEN….the movie will do average or just a hit status….bcos the movie overall is made for 120 crores in respect to share with FOX PICTURES there is a lot to regain back..that means even if movie makes 150 crores still it will be a hit only…and anothetr thing this is exam seadson for most teenagers in india can also affect the audience rate…if it breaks ghajini’s record i will shave my head!!!!
and lot of publicity cheap issues are going by already to creayte somemedia hype unnecessarily….thnat everytime happens with kran johar…so no big news..you can make films like that omly..have some guts to face other movies,karan….
and saddest part INDICINE will be ready to give MNIK already a4 star or 5 star rating even if the movie is bad!!!be ready to face it my dear reviewers…take my word.
The movies fate will be decided in day 1 itself.. it could possibly do good business overseas just due to its controversial subject and if the movie is really crap, then surely it may face a bad mouth which may cause it heavy losses even if it opens good..
now a days the audienc is very intelligent, and if it is really a bad movie then the losses would be tremendous as it is totally dependent on overseas and multiplex audiences.. single screens and interiors would be difficult for this movie as this is not an entertaining movie made for masses.
just see the example of ‘Rann’ .. it just failed due to the big hype and a very low entertainment value..
hope MNIK doesn’t come as a disaster..
Srk’s MNIK cant beat Aamir’s 3 idiots..
MNIK never breaak the record of 3 idiots MNIK is boaring type movie the story of mnik stolen froom kurban and new york ????????????
SALAAM2all
srk can beat ghajni and 3 idiots records in dreams only
and if in realty then i am damn sure that its srk publicity behind mnik
been the co-producer of mnik he has a power whether film do good bussiness or loss to show final verdict
of good bussiness
he can show to BOI as atleast hit like he had done for his film billu as a co-producer of the film
all knows despite being good film billu fails at box office but its srk who is co-producer of billu had declared
billu a hit tag and if mnik doesnt had good content also if it fail at box office as there were some drawbacks for mnik
the first
3 drawback for mnik
1st board exams of ssc and hsc in maharashtra going on and in many teritories scholl and colleges final exams is near by.
2nd mnik doesnt had impact like ghajni and 3 idiots with no vacations week like this two films
3rd except srk ordinary man act , mnik common plot of 9/11
additional one more drawback to mnik in overseas an hollywood film is in competition
i dont know the exact name of movie but i think its name is valentine it has gr888 actress of hollywood julia roberts …it may give competition to mnik in overseas as well as if it is releasing in multiplex of india
can make a a huge difference in mnik box office collection overseas and india .
Praveen AND Pawan
indian audience is crazy about srk. they will go and watch movie in theaters.
everybody who dont know about boxoffice are talking mnik’s hit or flop issue.
there is one sun inour solar system, there is one moon for our earth nad there 1 star in india and who is srk khan..!
overall believe me this movie going to rock.
i know it is hard to break the record of 3 idiots. but it will do bussiness like 3 idiots.
160 cr-180 cr.
lets wait and watch show begins today!!!!!!!!
