Why are people trying to contribute the so called "good" opening for ADHM to one person? Take only one person out of the multi cast or the director or the Music and the collections would have been lower. Pritam plays a big role thx to Karans taste of music and of course even if Aish is not the best actress her presence contributed A LOT to the movie be it the chemistry and bold scenes they gained a lot of attention.
no one was interested in RK Anu cause even promo material they looked 😕 and no one talked about them at the beginning it was all about Aish and RK pairing which created the buzz with the songs. Saying RK is the reason well the guy has no BO pull on his own and please we are in 2016 and not 2013. Everytime something is said against RK they start nameing his old movies yeah please move on. The collections are low for a movie of rk which is his comfort zone. Yes there are people who are interested in Fawad even i got interested bc of him but i am not sure how much it will affect the collections cause most people who would watch his films are the same people who go and watch rKs movies.

All this debate, but the TM got the facts wrong.
The movie isn't the second biggest opener, it's barely 9th in ranking, only just beating Fan.

Opening reason can't be given to one individual (except may be Khans but even they don't deserve complete credit) --- Every movie has many facets that contribute ---- Trailer-Director-Known Actors-Songs-plus other factors ---- i don't watch a movie only for *actors* --- i watch the movies judging the entire *package* ---- so same is the case here ----- Ranbir-Anu-Aish-Kjo-songs contributed to the opening & the hype --- !!!!
i personally don't think Fawad contributed substantially except may be bring a small chunk of his fans to the theater --- but that's my opinion --- here's why ---- controversy can *help or damage* a movie ---- for weeks a lot of people on the forum itself thought movie will face consequences due to the whole *boycott* drama ---- *If* controversy may have brought people to the theater to prove their *patriotism* isn't restricted to movies ----- with the same *logic* controversy may have also repulsed people to prove their *patriotism* --- it works both ways ---- so mathematically -1 & +1 together & u can get *zero* ---- zero leverage --- !!!!!!
Thus i don't think controversy helped a lot here ---- Kjo brand isn't small ---- today in the days of heavy promotions ---- Kjo Ranbir Anu Aish don't need controversies per se to sell their movies --- controversy & all happened latter ----- trailer itself created a huge hype on social media ---- so IMHO I'll give the credit to the entire team & not the goons looking for 2mins of fame --- !!!!

@TM needs to edit the title of the thread again... other fandoms are feeling left out with only FK and RK mentioned in the title... Please include Deepika, Ranveer and also bring back the original person in the title SRK!!!

Why Fawad Khan is dragged into this?
Nobody knew Fawad Khan before he came into bollywood and started doing KJO movies. I watched his series "Zindagi Gulzaar Hai", I liked his character I guess but just because he is good looking I dont think I would go and watch a movie of him. I am not generalizing and I am definitely not the one to think and act so.

If he had been a big start in India then Khoobsoorat would have been a major hit. He is popular among young generation. Like my mother knows who Ranbir is but not Fawad while she does know Kjo, Anuska and Aish.

Fawad , being in the movie, might contribute to a little portion of the opening at BO and this is true for Ranbir too.

Only Ranbir or only Fawad CAN NOT be the reason for the movie's opening at BO as long as it's not a KHAN movie. There are so many other factors.


And you changed the title 😕
