profittable for both producers and distributers through theatrical revenue
excluding satelight right etc money.No one where else in world that money is counted for declaring hit or not
here on iF they have started including this to justify their fav films made some profits


Not true. Satellite right matters if the distributor is given that right along with the movie when it's sold to them. Or the producer is the distributor.

Or else many hit Eros movies or YRF movies would have gotten average tag, rather than hit tag. Eros pays higher price to producers coz they take the satellite right along with distribution right. Why would they pay a few crore extra if it was not counted?

but most of times don't get the satelite right money
also i meant in general sense , in other part of world a film status is decided through does it more than double of their production money or not.
a film there can turn profitable through merchandise,blu ray sales, etc money but if it haven't earn a profit on box office.It is considered to be a flop and also major studies don't give out their earning these means.
Only in india , studios have started giving out these details , as to declare their film turned out to be profit as soon as possible.
Also many producers have said that many 100 crore movies didn't turned out profitable for people involved.
So money side of whole thing is still shady in bollywood

I agree with you. I laugh when Red Chillies or Sallu's production declares that they've made 125cr (70 cr - sat, 15 cr. - music, 40 cr - endorsement) even before the trailer release.

I be like, Dude! Whom are you fooling? Your distributor isn't getting a penny from that money.

forgot ? what ? i mentioned people who have terribly flopped and need hits to survive, and what is there to forget about HR's last film ? he does not need a hit desperately and his fans also dont make desperate attempts to make his bad film a good one 😃
who cares, Hrithik's success ratio vs kareena's success ratio 😆

yeah bajrangi bhaijaan was a hit, and everybody knows about the babaji ka thullu kareena got from that film.

and do not worry about Hrithik, bang bang was a mistake, otherwise he will balance his graph unlike the ones i have mentioned above 😉
