At the end of the day ADHM opened better despite boycott calls and negative campaign mounted by certain people and it will finish better too. Ajay always made this clash dirty from the start by attacking KJo personally. KJo finished him off in the best way he could.

Heck, people were watching the 2200 bucks Director's Cut for Ae Dil Hai Mushkil 😆

Yes who is denying even in this thread BOI clearly said money is honey.
But isnt multiplex audience known for not going for an actor to watch movies?? Isnt multiplex audience so called content driven thn how come this movie shows RK star power that bothered me 😊
Otherwise yeah Adhm has won it n karan deserves all the credit

No I dont think ADHM shows RK's starpower. I dont see any praise for him like it happened after YJHD and Barfi. There was too much going on first due to the clash with Shivay and KRK drama and later the controversy due to Fawad's special appearance. But after the first 2-3 days also film has been doing well so WOM is good enough to sustain it and we must give credit to EVERYONE involved in the film whether its KJo or Pritam or RK or Anu or Ash.

ADHM is even worse than Roy according to people. So isn't this a little contradictory? 😆

I am one of those people. Swore to not watch any BW for an entire year to get over that train wreck.

Well honestly, KJo has to be credited too. He's trashed but yet people look forward to his candyfloss NRI oriented, beautiful looking movies. He's a lot celebrated as a director than he gets credit for.

A good star cast + KJo will make people go to cinemas even though they aren't really fans. ADHM proved it quite firmly.

Going by most audience review websites, imdb etc, they seemed to have 'preferred' Shivaay.

Right from the start of the promotion campaign of Shivay there was also a negative campaign carried out against ADHM and KJo. There were too many anti ADHM and espcially anti KJo Twitter trends. I think Ajay Devgan hired someone for deploying a bot army to carry out the anti ADHM and KJo campaign. After the release of the movies too IMDB and BMS showed poor ratings for ADHM and very good ratings for Shivay. Ideally then Shivay should have seen more footfalls in plexes but didnt happen. I am hence glad Ajay's negative campaigned failed. About the films I saw ADHM and it scarred me. Dont have guts to watch another BW for a long time now. But several people who were looking forward to Shivay also didnt like it.

Both movies underperformed. AD's movie wasn't even in the contention, whatever it has earned is face-saving .

Kjo tried every trick in the book, used FK well. I don't think FK had any role apart from the cameo , RK-Anu track won't have worked but so stupid how Kjo first used FK bandwagon, then allowed the negative campaign to sustain and then moved on.

Publicity, Ash+RK+Anushka. SRK's cameo . Yet the movie is struggling to cross 100Cr. With a KJo , NRI billings, such a star-stubbed cast, music, so many cameos..the movie should have earned more..atleast 200Cr.

Nobody's a winner here. But stans can be happy compering these two movies with each other.
