True😆 Ajay has 3 movies in that list

I had no idea he had inflated for Drishyam too!!😲I mean why the hell? Drishyam wasnt the type of movie where ppl expect huge collections.

But Papa Roshan wins in sheer numbers he has inflated, look at Krish 3, from 175 to 244 it jumped like Krish beta😲😆

Sad part of the forum
When Kaabil collections were lowered SRK fans made fun and trusted BOI.
Now when BOI reduced Raees number BOI is fraud.
Can't believe the double standards.

Both movies have changed collections. Both are not successful.

Pallo - I didn't mean that Raees and Kabil started it.
This is like BW awards. We used to have doubts on them before , offlate they have become a mockery.

Similarly , BO numbers are becoming doubtful now a days . Hope this trend stops and we have some agency monitoring collections scientifically.
