Personally, neither do I care about these records nor do I have much knowledge about them but lately I had seen a lot of posts talking about records and making fun of SRK and his star-power. So I'm very glad he shut everyone up. I know CE can't be compared to 3 Idiots neither am I going to do so and I don't think any SRK fan has done that either ( well I haven't seen any post comparing the two movies content wise). In any other case, I wouldn't have been happy with CE breaking 3 Idiots record ( I dunno if it did or not but I heard it did) but in this case, I'm extremely happy. SRK needed this to shut everyone up!


I like your pov and especially this bit cuz I too feel the same way. Nicely written Kiran :)

I prefer keyboard than touchscreen shit.
Anyway - on topic. No point of Silly accusations. CE isn't an ATBB 😆
To be ATBB you must have over 2 million footfalls and Dabangg was the last film to achieve that

I was just going through this thread and the way people change colors here is just amazing. First, Salman fans used to brag about 100 crores, 150 crores etc. and now when CE has broken all those records, they are talking about the amount of fans went to watch the movie, hike in ticket prices etc. I, personally, remember reading some posts where members said 'SRK's movies can't even cross 150 crores' and some were even writing him off and now that he has proved everyone wrong, I see people coming up with new excuses to put down SRK. The point isn't whether movie is ATBB, BB, hit, super-hit or whatever. The point is CE broke all the records especially the records Salman fans bragged about to bring SRK down and when he did, I saw some people saying we'll talk when he'll give 5 BBs like Salman. Hey, guess what? He doesn't need to give 5 BBs. He broke all the records set with one movie only.

SRK needed this to shut everyone up! Records are meant to be broken and I'm sure some other movie will break CE's records. I don't care if any movie breaks CE's records tomorrow but the fact stays CE broke so many records and so many people have been proven wrong! No one's saying CE will be remembered for years but similarly, how many of Salman's movies will be remembered for many years to come? Bodyguard, Ready, ETT? But still Salman fans always talk about his records. Now when SRK fans are doing the same, they are getting lectures. Double standards much? Anyways after going through low phase for sometime, SRK and SRK fans deserve to celebrate. 👏



This would all make sense except for the fact that, that's exactly what the topic maker is asking.

Why is CE not an ATBB?

It only makes sense then, its compared to ATBB's like HAHK and Gadar to explain why its not one.

All in all, great rant...wrong thread.

Besides all that you have written...in the last two years...when Shahrukh was being written off...Oh because his movies can't even cross RR...and SRK fans...used to say that SRK may not be giving BB's but he was the most consistent star...we were immediately told to not LOOK IN THE PAST...but to LOOK at the present...and now tht CE has been declared an ATBB...and has broken every possible record...suddenly people remember 20 year old movies...is it not amazing...and about the inflation and how huge 3 Idiots is...where did all the inflation go when not even an year back...two of Salman's movies...were on the verge of breaking 3Is records...I didn't see a single soul talking about Gadar and HAHK then...all we were listening to was ..ki 3Is ka record to gaya...gaya nahi who alag baat hai😉😆
Now that CE is such a huge grosser people are coming up with all the theories...where were these theories in the last 2 years...or have they been developed in the last two weeks😆
Anyways Kiran...we all know what CE has done...some people will never accept it...just be happy...there are still some people who believe tht Neil Armstrong didn't go on moon..but went to Nevada😆...With anything successful..there will be 10s of conspiracy theories...its up to u wat u choose to believe...and I believe tht CE ne sabki band Baja dee👏👏😆

If you believe CE ne sabki band Baja dee, why do I see you in every such thread defending CE? Apni khudh ki hi baat pe koi doubt hai kya? 😕

Salman (Ready-2011) "Never underestimate 3 things in life, I me and Myselff"
Shahrukh (CE-2013) "Never underestimate the power of a common man"
Are we following Bhaijaan or what? 😲 🤣🤣🤣
