Housefull 3 Emerges A Hit
Friday 11 June 2016 11.00 IST
Box Office India Trade Network
7

Housefull 3 has emerged a HIT film with business of around 3.50 crore nett on the all important day eight. The business was better than the new Hindi releases and there will be good growth over the weekend especially on Sunday as it could be a repeat of last week as the families come out. The business of the film is around 83.50 croe nett in eight days.

There are drops in some circuits but North, Gujarat and Central India continues to do well with some circuits set to to record the highest figures of the year. Gujarat / Saurashtra will be number one by the end of the second week.

The lifetime business of the film is hard to judge as a lot depends on the release of Udta Punjab. If Udta Punjab gets delayed it can add 10-15 crore nett business to the film as it will dominate theatres till Sultan. The lifetime range seems to be 115-130 crore nett depending on the Udta Punjab issue..

u seriously need to read what's written and not make assumptions. This is the 3rd time u accusing me and telling me to calm down when I've already told u that I"m. Should I also start accusing u of the same? Just because I'm disagreeing with u and calling u out on your bull I've to calm down then the same can be said about u.

who discredited u? I simply said that I don't care about the opening numbers and that's why didn't predict them either. I simply said that u were wrong about the lifetime numbers and the verdict.

yes facts are gonna be thrown at your face if u didn't admit. Good that u admit but even if u didn't it would still not change anything just like jackie doing z grade movies doesn't change anything.



what is that suppose to mean? U r implying that someone else is not? Oh I'm man enough to admit that I was wrong, u would be foolish not to.

now u r even gonna take credit for admitting that u were wrong and if your prediction came true u would take credit for that, wow 👏

yeah sure, dhoom 3, 10min role in the beginning was superior to his 20min role in housefull 3, yeah sure 😆



Yes these are the facts. I don't need to be happy about it. I'll point out when someone lies and give wrong info. facts are in front of u, its up to u whether to accept them or not.

'oh jackie is such a star u know, he never does z grade roles ever u know, him starring in a superhit franchise with a superstar, how can he? Its really shocking u know, after all he did dhoom3 u know in which he was there for 10mins but u know it was really important u see he was playing aamirs father that rite there is so important u know and in hny he was the villain u know, do u remember the villain of sunday yea that movie that starred ajay devgan, it was ali asgar, he is such a big star, i wonder why he plays nani in kapil show because u know he was a villain in a ajay devgan movie, its really shocking to me, that show is beneath him, he should quit u know'

😆

yes facts have been thrown at your face, case closed 😉



Don't misquote me. I never said "Jackie is such a star". Stop. I never even ONCE said Jackie is a superstar. NOT ONCE. Neither did I say that he has NEVER done a z grade role.

LOOK, let me say it again. When I mention HNY and DHOOM 3, I'm NOT saying he was the main lead, the crowd-pulling superstar, or anything like that. All I was saying was he had a well-defined roles (atleast in my opinion) even if it was ONLY a supporting role. I don't care about the z grade roles he has done, I am only comparing to the 2 movies recently that the majority of people would remember he was in. Of course he has done z grade films, but that is not what I am making any comparison to. In comparison, I just felt that HOUSEFULL 3, another movie in which he has a SUPPORTING role, felt like a weaker role in comparison to those movies, in my opinion, that's all. Even Brothers, another big film he was recently in, which although failed at the box office, I would say he had a stronger role. He has strong acting talent when tapped properly.

I have already acknowledged that the film is doing well. It's going to enter the 100 crore club and earn a HIT tag. It's a FACT that I WILL NOT deny.

Having seen the film, I still maintain that it's a weak film, and I am very surprised by how the film is performing at the box office, especially in a year where it has been mostly critically acclaimed films that have done very well at the box office (BAAGHI and now HOUSEFULL 3 are the exceptions).

@CougarTown Thanks for the support! 😃 Yes, I was wrong this time, and yes, 100 crores and a Hit tag IS on the cards for Housefull 3!

@SunSaathiya, Yes, Nadiadwala is looking at another successful year!

@Eloquence, LOL I am NOT going to stop predicting, thank you for your suggestion 😃

Alright, adventurousman, let's come to a mutual conclusion, yeah? Jackie Shroff is a strong actor in terms of his acting skills, a mid-level star, who has also starred in z-grade films, but who also his share of success in the 80s and recently has had supporting roles in some big films, just that there is a difference in opinion between us of which of those supporting roles were stronger when compared to one another. Fair enough?

its very simple. Jackie is a good actor i like him, look at him in parinda, gardish, awesome work but see what u have written here, this is why I responded.

oh, and in case you didn't know, which I'm sure you probably didn't, Jackie Shroff is in this film too. God knows what his role is, and more importantly, why he chose to be a part of this film in the first place!



so u r asking why he chose to be a part of this film. what does this indicate? like he normally wouldn't or that this film is beneath him? I'm not saying u called him superstar or even star but look what u have written and what it means.

that's why I showed u the filmography of his films so u know why he has chosen to be a part of this film. when he has no problem being part of z grade movies and doing 2rs roles there then why would u think that he would have a problem being part of this movie? regardless of what his roles were in hny or d3 even if he was the main lead in those movies still u shouldn't be surprised at him for doing this movie why? just look at his overall filmography and not 1 or 2 films.

do u understand what I'm saying or u wanna continue this nonsense?

another thing I knew baaghi and this movie are gonna be hits. I mean its houseful 3, akki after airlift, no one cares about the director. its the franchise and akki so ofc its gonna be a hit.

baaghi had good action and tiger + shraddha, both their previous movies were hits too.

I agree with u that the movie wasn't that good but yeah who cares about that. its not like good movies are always hits and bad ones are always flop.

its janta, u never know what they'll like.

I'm not interested in continuing this nonsense either, but I will stand by my opinion while you will stand with yours. Fair enough.

I also predicted Baaghi to be a hit, but I didn't see anything in Housefull 3's trailer that made it seem like a hit film, even though I fully knew that the previous 2 films in the series worked well at the box office.

Usually a film with a big star should have atleast some sort of merit to work at the box office, at least some powerful scenes, dialogues, a story, something...I hardly saw anything like that in Housefull 3. Thought Housefull 2 was much better in comparison.

Yes because somewhere they drew the line or else it would have been tough to reach Rs 100 cr.
I dont know because I dont watch such cheap comedies, have seen only promos and what others tell. Yes those two were vulgar and had obscenity too.

I would like to see akshay in comedy but not these cheap ones but clean comedies where the situations are comic and not definitely not sex comedy.

yes Govinda-karishma movies with David dhawan were full on entertainers, Raja babu, Saajan chale sasural, coolie no 1, Hero no 1, Haseena maan jayegi

I personally don't mind sex comedies, in fact MASTI (2004) remains one of my all time favourite films! It's a laugh riot!

But yeah, I understand that sex comedies wouldn't appeal to everyone. I think that's what worked in HOUSEFULL 3's favor: it was a film that could be watched by the entire family. Off the top of my head, I can't recall anything in the movie that went towards the sex comedy zone except for a small part here or there.

Yeah, HOUSEFULL 3 is nothing compared to other comedy films of Akshay! GARAM MASALA is a classic. How about DEEWANE HUYE PAAGAL? A comedy that is hardly talked about, but I personally love it! 2005 was in general a great year for Akshay in my opinion, probably my favourite year of his. WAQT was another great film, while BEWAFA/DOSTI are decent too.

Housefull series despite few double meaning jokes are completely family movies. Nothing vulgar about them, silly yes, unfunny yes, but vulgar?? Nope.
