@TM, Aamir had Mangal Pandey after Mela.

Oh I hope your prediction holds true, I want this movie to work for SRK but i don't want it to do as well as it would, because SRK needs to realise his fans aren't happy watching such films.
I would be happiest if it stopped at 195. 😆 Would teach him a lesson.

Mangal Pandey managed to recover its investment due to the bumper opening the film took, so it was not a clean Flop 😊

BOI says it's a flop.

That's odd, as Taran Adarsh listed it as a partial success due to it's extraordinary initial it took 😕

Oh how convenient 😆 I thought when a big superstars movie underperforms that the movie should be classified as a flop because of the HUGE expectations? Why are there different rules for different stars?

and wasn't KANK an average movie? and didn't JTHJ underperform?😆 are we still counting them as SRK's successes?

Well depends on how much u expected it to make...JTHJ released with another movie on the same day...and it was the genre ROMANCE which doesn't sell like masala...and yet it made 120+ cr...it did fine according to me...it just depends on ur expectation...just like if someone is expecting 300 cr from HNY...even a 290 cr will be underperformance😉

Exactly, very well said 👏 JTHJ performed about as well as it could have as there was also the whole issue of Bal Thackrey's death and the bandh in Maharastra which caused theatres to be closed there on the first Saturday and Sunday, which caused Sunday collections even being less than the film's previous 5 days, despite Sunday itself being a holiday.

Released on another holiday period by itself with no clash, JTHJ probably would've been a Blockbuster in India.

Happy New Year First Day Collections: Early Estimate

Posted in : Bollywood,Box Office
|
October 25th, 2014.

Happy New Year has recorded the highest single-day collections at around 46 of the 52 centres that we have received collections from so far. As per early estimates, the film has collected around Rs 39 crore on its first day at the box office, including business from regional versions like Tamil and Telugu - which is a record for the highest opening day collections ever.

The film could challenge the highest collections first day collections in Rajasthan circuit even though the newly introduced entertainment tax has come into effect from August 1st (After first week of Kick, before Singham Returns).

We have compiled estimates for all circuits in India. Do note that these are NOT the final collections of the film. The actual first day collections will be published in the noon.
