YJHD Box Office Collections: 2nd highest grosser of 2013

YJHDYeh Jawaani Hai Deewani is on a historic run at the box office as the film collected Rs 12.71 crore on Monday. The 4 day total cumulative total stands at Rs 74.81 crore. At the speed at which it’s going, the film is likely to cross the 100 crore mark by the end of it’s first week itself.

On Tuesday, the film crossed the lifetime business of Aashiqui 2, which was until now the 2nd highest grosser of 2013.

YJHD Box Office Collections

  • Friday – 19.5 cr
  • Saturday – 20.1 cr (3% growth)
  • Sunday – 22.5 cr (12% growth)
  • Weeeknd – 62.1 cr
  • Monday – 12.71 cr (43% drop from Sunday)
  • 4 Day Total – 74.81 crore net

The film is still running at 50-60% occupancy at multiplexes, with evening/night shows running to packed houses at several cinemas. Tuesday box office collection is likely to be around 11 – 11.5 cr.

While the final lifetime business is difficult to predict at this point in time, YJHD has a good chance of crossing the 150 crore mark if it remains steady in Week 2 (it has Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 as competition).

The film is almost certain to go past major grossers like Agneepath, Don 2, Ra One, Ready, Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore. But the big question - Can YJHD beat some of the biggest hits in recent times like Bodyguard (145 cr), Dabangg (140 cr) and Dabangg 2 (153 cr)? Tell us what you think!

  • @soroop lols at your logic.
    no one can become number one by just a one film or just a one record.
    look,,dabangg broke the opening day and weekend record of 3 idiots and became atbb as well.but does that make salman no.1????NO..salman become no.1 after back to back 3 bbs(after bodyguard he become clearly no.1)..exactly the same way,,ranbeer can not be no.1 with yjhd..he is right now no.2 after salman.
    now,,about my name is khan and special 26..
    my name is khan release—february 2010
    rnbdj release—-november 2008
    gap—15 months
    also,,karan-kajol-srk combo…
    now,,
    special 26—february 2013
    khiladi786–december 2012
    gap —-2 months
    do i need to say anything more???
    and how could don2 held non holiday record????wasn’t that released during christmas(23 dec. 2011 )…before dabangg2,,it was rowdy who held non holiday record.
    and wasn’t mnik,,ra.one,,don2,,jthj meant to be break 3 idiots record(as many srk fans said before this films release)???
    so its you who has to put jealosy behind and accept that srk is nowhere in top5 right now…(yaa,,he may enter in top3 if ce breaks yjhd weekend record but its highly impossible as other biggie called OUATIMA releasing with it..and let me tell you,,weekend will be similar for sure,,,no matter how much screens OUATIMA GETS…and i don’t want to argue on that right now it will be proved on 12 august 2013.)

  • @Samar. Dabangg had far more screens then 3 idiots so it collected accordingly. But In YDHJ case, it had 650 less screens, It’s a huge differnce dude. Taking Screen count and brand value in to consideraion, YJHD broke dabangg 2 record by huge margin. Gajini broke RDBJ’s record by huge margin so Aamir became no.1, similar scenario here as well. And note : Before Gajini happened, SRK had 3 blockbuster in a row ( CDI, OSO and RNBJ). IF Aamir became no.1 then, why not Ranbir now ?, why this double standard dude?. And 1 more thing Salman became no.1 with bodyguard bcuz his Bodyguard beats previous movie’s record by huge margin so.
    SRK’s perious few films were not a typical enternaining movie with Ra one being an exception. So none didnt broked 3 idiots records but some of his films broked opening record. So it means still he is a huge crowdpuller and not behind anyone. Superstar’s job is to give bumper opening, lifetime depends on content, don’t u know that?.
    About ur 2 months theory, Even raone and don 2 released with in 2-3 months gap but both were 100 crs plus grossers, isn’t it?. Akshay spoiled his star power with Joker and khiladi 786 (not including Special chabbis bcuz it never meant to be entertaining movie). So now he is way behind SRK as star power is concerned.

  • why all you don’t understand that film was released with 3000 plus screen so obviously it will do more business !!!

  • @soroop
    first of all,dabangg released on 1800 screens worldwide(1400 in india) and 3 idiots opened in 1800 screens worldwide(1385 in india).
    does 15 screens makes huge difference???really???i don’t think so.
    secondly,,amir became no.1 considering tzp(sh),ghajini(atbb),3i(atbb)..not only because of ghajini.
    srk previous films were not meant to be entertaining..really???isn’t srk doing this kind of films everytime??isn’t srk working for multiplex audience and NRIs from begining of his carrer??
    now..(i never thought srk fans are sooo dumb by the way,,on that point,,you are right navin.)
    ra.one–diwali holidays
    don2—christmas holiday
    but
    khiladi786–a single holiday(apart from sunday)was there???mmm…..NO.
    special 26—-same case as k786..right???
    “akshay is way behind srk as star power is concerned”..now that is completely your opinion,not truth.
    and by the way that will be seen this eid.just wait till two months.just wish for your KING that he gets at least 500 more screens,,otherwise your king will be beaten black and blue by our KHILADI.he he..

  • @Samar. No 15 screens won’t make much difference but 650 screens does. Don2 released on working day on friday, christmas holidy fall on Sunday so don2 couldn’t get holiday advantage bcuz sunday is a holiday anyway right. Now next thing is don2 is not for masses, it’s in the line of tezz and talash, it’s a thriller. Now comming back to Akshay films, Yes his housfull 2 and rathode were blockbusters but he ruined it with joker and khiladi. Suppose if Ranbir’s beharam didnt open well this year then his starpower will slips down, which is not going to happen like happened with akshay kumar.
    In Tare zameen par, Aamir was praised for direction. But in Fanaa, he made a comeback but SRK, who is ruling with 3 blockbster in a row was dethroned bcuz of Gajini’s collection. Here salman was dethroned by ranbir. But salman fans are not sharukh fan to accept the truth, isn’t it ?

    Yea samar will see. Ur telling “ur khiladi will beat our king”. I will save this remark for eid.

  • @Samar.” Just wish for your KING that he gets at least 500 more screens,,otherwise your king will be beaten black and blue by our KHILADI”. why ur making such statement mr. Intelligent?. Ur Khiladi is supposedly bigger star then how come our small star sharukh get more screens. Isn’t dat so confusing?. Why would exhibitors give less screen to biggest star on earth, hold ur breath.. MR. Akshay KUmar ?

  • @soroop well well well.another dumb reply from you.if you think your KING is really a KING then what is the need of booking the screens by using salman and ajay???(ett-jthj,,himmatwala-ce)..(now please don’t give the dumb example which most of the srk fans gives..like balaji also booked for ouatima with etd and wadala..do you guys really think that ekta will book screens for akshay kumar film with the help of emran hashmi and john abraham films???i don’t think so.)
    i said ce MIGHT get 100-200 screens more just because of utv’s cheating by booking ss with the help of himmatwal.otherwise no chance.(this whole reply was for your last comment.)

  • @soroop
    “don2 was not for masses”..so?????what’s the problem in it???is your KING known for mass oriented films????has he did anythign different with don2???isn’t your KING working for class and NRIs????what makes the difference if don2 is for masses or not???
    “don2 released on normal day and christmas was on sunday”..but isn’t christmas holidays are for week long???does it matters whether christmas is on sunday or monday or friday???wasn’t that CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY PERIOD???
    and,,ranbeer can’t throw anyone out from his position..he can just get his position in superstar list.nothing else he can do.now tell me,,what’s big–1 blockbuster or 5 continuous blockbusters???
    by the way i m happy that healthy debate going on between us.

  • @Samar. Fiilms are business. Anyone can book screens using their previous movie if they can get benefit. Why would JTHJ need salman’s ETT, IF JTHJ has so many popular name attached to it. Ajay Devgan used sympathy here. U guys didnt understood yet. If YRF films were wrong then why would Competition Commision rejects Ajay devgan appeal? and later ajay devgan appealed to competition appellate tribunal and again got rejected. Not just Ajay didnt care that JTHJ is late Yash chopra’s film but he choose to file case against Aditya Chopra, who is trying to release his father’s movie, died only few days back yaar. Ajay even told kajol didnt invited for JTHJ primiere, all of this for what?, just for movie publicity!!?. Ajay devgan appeal was rejected twice but u people still think he is right. If u watch ajay’s interview then u will know how desperate he were, to show YRF on dark side. SOS was suppose to get just 1600 screens then how did film managed 2200 screens before film release inspite of his appeal was rejected?. Ajay devgan was excited bcuz of his newly found stardom but God put him back where he was earlier, with Himmatwala. Now u guys are saying UTV is cheating Ekta kapoor. On what basis dude?. Ekta kapoor wouldn’t cheat or do anything like that!!. How do u know, is Ekta kapoor ur classmate or ur gf bcuz it seems u knw very well abt her.

  • @samar. Don 2 is suppose to break 3 idiots record. It was suppose to be mass oriented movie before the release of the movie bcuz it’s trailer looks like one. But after release only everyone understood it’s strictly multiplex movie. It crossed 100 crs just with the support of multiplex audience. Ur akshay movies can’t think abt it.
    Race 2 got flying star just bcuz of brand value. Now dabangg 2, which is far more bigger brand was defeated by ranbir’s movie that too by 650 less screens. That’s why ranbir is ahead of salman.
    Ranbir is no.1 interms of current star power but ur talking abt achievement. Salman had 5 blockbuster in india, he has achieved a lot more than ranbir. But u still didn’t undertood I am talking about current star power which ranbir leads clearly. Go and check YJHD opening weekend collection and compare with dabbang 2 opening weekend then everything will be clear for u.

  • @soroop
    “it crossed 100 crores just with multiplex support.your akshay can’t think of it”.
    exactly the way rowdy collected 135 crores on the power of single screens,,,and your shah can’t even dream of it.got it??
    as all srk fans only believe in boi,,go and check boi which clearly says that ranbeer is no.2 RIGHT NOW followed by salman.
    and,,what ajay did is not wrong at all.he did a perfect step IMO.it was yrf who cheated ajay clearly by booking the screens in advance..which was clearly wrong.
    and I don’t think I can prove my point against you as all the srk fans are same,,they will try to put their same wrong logic again and again.so,,this is my last comment for you on this topic.

  • “I don’t think I can prove my point against you as all the srk fans are same” this statement is bcuz u dont have anything to say. Rowdy rathode had universal appeal. Movie had done good business in both multiplex and single screen. It seems ur saying anything u want without any knowledge.
    U claimed Akshay is bigger star than Sharukh still ur worried latter will get 500 more screen. Then u said CE may get 100 or more screens bcuz of cheating. For u akshay and ekta are well aware of UTV cheating but still they wont do anything. Ur classmate Ekta kapoor films OUATIMA getting less screen not bcuz exhibitor choose CE over her film but it’s bcuz she is female mahtma gandhi of bollywood, isn’t it?. Now I must say ur handicapped excuses are damn funny.

  • Top ten 100 cr. Actor .salman khan 5 ajay devgan 4 sharuk khan 3 amir khan 2 ranbir kapoor 2 akshay kumar 2 hritik roshan 1

  • @soroop well i decided not to comment on this topic,,but i can not tolerate someone insult akshay.so, i have to say something to you.
    you guys are full of excuses..everytime excuse,excuse,excuse and excuse.like rowdy had universal appeal,don2 hasn’t.but isn’t your srk a KING???then why people didn’t went to watch it and made it universal hit.accept it your KING is no more a KING.even not in top5.or give another excuse.
    i am not at all worried about ouatima.i am full on confident on ouatima.and what is the need of fighting??lets just wait for 2 months.simple.
