Nope not judging on 2 sec...wanted to say that since the first day collections of DDD came😆...

And also everyone was posting their own budgets here..some says 100 cr some say 85 cr...I think its 75-80...Movie is 65cr and promotion 10-15 cr(not sure)...thats why able to vomit my frustration on you today...lol


I personally am curios to see the movie and i know i would like it

However..since so many members posted the budget varying so much..i had no idea what the budget is..it was strictly based on business from whatever i heard here

Anyway..you enjoy! I don't want to fight with members around or justify too much. Life mein already buhat problems hain..IF shouldn't be taken to seriously..have a good day!! :)

RS - PC may not have STARDOM as HR- Kattu.

But they acted way better than HR-Kattu did in ZNMD.


Ohh sorry forgot, on IF its all about BO and stardom. Who cares for acting. Galati se mishtake.

Not all good movies do well these days! Its a slow and gradual change! No one came to watch Lootera either? Doesnt make it a bad films!

Def agreed about the acting skills!

It didn't fail. It was a hit overseas. But apparently NRI and overseas audiences don't count.

Zoya's filmmaking is more western and you can see she's heavily influenced by Woody Allen. There's a lot of tongue-in-cheek sarcastic rumor that not cued in like in tyically masala films.

I till date say, if the music was better the film would have had a bigger opening and probably a larger pull. For me, it was a notch better than ZNMD just b/c Zoya actually wrote 2 well-developed adult characters and gave Shefali a career-defining role.


Overseas audiences always tend to be a little bit more accepting to unique and progressive concepts! For an example films like Sisilay and Lamhe did well over seas while they were rejected here! And our now regarded as classics.

Salim Khan had said in an interview...the audience walks away with the climax. For a film to do well climax needs to work. When I was stepping out of the cinema after watching DDD I heard several people say bakwas film hain. The bad climax killed it apart from the bad editing. Focussing on Farhan-PC might have helped instead of Ranveer-Anushka.

are there any official international box office numbers? if DDD made 22 crores opening weekend, i find it hard to believe it only made 10 more crores after that in the following 2 weeks.

Big facepalm can't handle the truth 😆

EXACTLY... Ranveer-Anu came out so boring and disconnected, whereas Farhan-PC needed more focus in the story.
One thing is for sure, just how good actors and directors cannot sell a film , good actors with star power can, Varun has proved it, the opening at least proves that he does have a huge pull, because i thought ABCD2 was thanda with its promos, and again Badlapur is there in his defense too.
Too bad to see that so called good actors like Ranbir and Ranveer fail to even give their film an opening which Alist heroines and 100% buzz whereas Varun does it in style.

Lets not bring Varun angle here...
Yes he is having time of his life right now and congrats to him, but don't overhype him!
Presence of known star is important but no way does it translate into a huge numbers. Besides Khans, no actor/actress can promise huge opneings- lot of factors help in making a film hit!
Ranbir is having a bad phase thats why you are making such a statement, where were you when Barfi was declared superhit? a film NO PERSON accepted to even recover its cost or when YJHD was declared a BB. When RL crossed over 100 crore and Gunday had huge opening!?
I am 100 percent sure you will include Varun's name in that list of "good actors no pull" if he delivers a flop next year!
