Fingers crossed these houseful tweets and messages convert to a good total today. The momentum will come down for the night shows as it is a working day tomorrow.

HNY official 44 vs BOI 36. Ghapla by RCE?

But wasn't the 44.. Hindi + south dubbed total. I don't think BOI counts dubbed versions in their total. Not sure though.

Ya you are right. BOI reports only Hindi. But still the 8 cr difference b/w 36 and 44 cannot be attributed to dubbed versions. Thats too much

Watched it. What a movie!!👏👏 Masaledar and Entertaining. The movie keeps hold of you, and yes it belongs to Shah Rukh. He simply captures the screen. Despite the detractors and his age, still SRK is able to carry the movie on his shoulders, commendable.

All the actors did a good job at acting⭐️⭐️⭐️

The child playing Raees was very good and his role could have been extended for some more time. Raees mother's role could also have been extended to show his emotions and his nature. Pashabhai, Jairaj, Ratna madam, Doctor sahab, Nawab, Musa bhai, Sadiq, all were very good and left their mark.

Shah Rukh entry scene is good, it invites whistles, the whole get back is fabulous. All SRK scenes including his fights esp the roof top one where he tries to catch his assassinator was damn good and shot very well.

Also the scene when the kid Raees carries the bottles in his bag and looks back at Jairaj.

Nawaz entry was fine but how can an IPS officer dance like that?😕🤪 The phone tapping was never so easy and you needed approvals to get that done. Nawaz role was not strongly built into story rather coerced to show someone on side of law.

The scene where the opposition party leader Pashabhai tries to take his stop alcohol march thru Raees locality was pretty realistic and that is how riots start. The bottle throwing was WOW

Humour is built into the story nicely - biryaani, Gandhiji ka chasma, Doctor scenes, Sadiq and Raees scenes.

Acting wise I found Nawaz fine but not as brilliant as the film critics make him out to be. Infact at some places I found him less convincing. The guy playing Daglu seth or something did a good job.

Mahira had quite good role but she is unable to act well and fails miserably esp in the intense breakdown scene of Raees when he realises that all the money was lost in the housing society project. They could have taken Nimrit kaur and she would have a good job.

The butcher area fight scene was repulsive and hurts the sensibility and you want the scene to get over right away.

They took inspiration from the old drive in cinema and movie played was of AB😆😆 The way SRK enters the car was damn good👏😆

In the end Raees remembers his journey from start till end, this leaves the audience emotional. And some people did say why kill him? The character of Raees builds emotional connect with audience via his actions by helping needy, building housing society and returning money back and then when he tells Musa that " main Dharm ka dhandha nahi karta".

The song Saanson ke kisi ek mod par, Mili thi tu zindagi... Chala main apni manzil ko

Ja tu bhi laut ja ghar ko, Samajh paun na main tujhko, Naa tu mujhko was the surprise song but a meaningful song and well built into the story.

Baniye ka dimag aur miyabhai ki daring dono hai iske paas😆😆😆

An engrossing and entertaining movie⭐️
