It crossed 3 million USA/Canada ⭐️⭐️

I don't know if it becomes a huge grosser there lik BB or PK but im sure it crosses 4.5 mill and cracks maybe the top 7 if not 5 of all films

Okay my review:

Actually the theater had well occupancy on Saturday night...I enjoyed the movie and people in the theater seemed to enjoy it as well...they were all laughing at all those funny parts and so was I...I loved the fact that the comedy was not forceful, it actually made you laugh but did the movie meet my expectations? Honestly, it didn't!! I was expecting a movie like MPK, HAHK, HSSH, or even Vivaah but PRDP is not memorable like these movies! Despite watching them numerous times, MPK still makes me blush and cry, HAHK and HSSH make me smile and cry as well...PRDP made me laugh but didn't make me shed a single tear...I got little emotional at the end but didn't make me cry and this is not what I expect from Sooraj-Salman's movie(s). All their past movies have always evoked strong emotions, unfortunately PRDP didn't!

I think the main problem was that Sooraj didn't stay true to his roots...Even until the movie released, I was hoping there was no double role...I just couldn't fathom such stories on a SB movie...I wish more focus was given to the family relations...they were all over the place, thus, missed touching the right cord of the emotions...rather then making the royal backdrop, he could have gone for the general backdrop and focussed more on family relationships and made more convincing story out of that...the movie could have been much much better only if SB had stayed true to his roots.

All in all, it was an alright movie...not half as bad as some retractors are making it to be, but it definitely failed to meet my expectations!! However, Salman was the saving grace of the movie...take him out and there would be nothing left in the movie except the aamzing sets and seesh mahal...Sonam was fine!! She was not as bad as some people are making her out to be!!

Finally watched it.

My rating 2.5/5 (all for SALMAN) + 0.5 for having my wish granted of 2 Salmans in 1 Frame. 😉😳 3/5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Mr Khan has given 200% to this film. I'm so proud of him, 2015 truly belongs to Mr Khan. Despite so many troubles in life, he gave his all to his work. It's like his work has become his new best friend.. I Love you. 🤗 I want your work to be recognized this year. It's not like you need awards... but you deserve a LOT of appreciation which I really hope you will.

Now,I understand why people like Salshah4eva complained about "getting bored" within few minutes and what not. Actually, I realized Dilwale trailer was attached to PRDP ...so yeah, people we're bound to yawn and zone out. It all makes sense now... Those 3 minutes of Dilwale trailer were torturous to say the least . It really played a toll on some people. Anyway some people are Anti-Salman in disguise...let's not get fooled by their uernames. 😆

I didn't get "bored" during PRDP. Neither did I feel "Oh, I wasted my money" because of course, watching Salman, cherishing his presence is never "wasting money" but yes, film-making wasn't perfect: Editing and Direction a.k.a execution of scenes were extremely poor. Fighting scene was initially gripping but then it got very crappy 🤢 😕 Reminded me of VFX done by Red Chillies Entertainment...😕 😆

This film had the potential to do SO WELL. It has some amazing moments, some amazing scenes but everything got wasted and I don't understand HOW? Wasn't Sooraj so confident of the work he has done? I really don't get it.

Salman, I understand you value friendship, and it's your best quality, it's what makes me fall in love with you harder... but please take care of your fans and their sentiments. We wait for your movies and wish you well but you chose to be blinded by friendship. Keep friendship personal, don't let it affect your professional life.

This film was stuffed with so many unnecessary clippings. I don't mind long duration films but they shouldn't make you feel like "Oh, they are just wasting time right now" but in PRDP, Sooraj wasted a LOT of time despite having some MARVELLOUS Elements and Emotions for execution.

I had so many hopes for the Soccer Match but it was just not done right. Very Amateur filmmaking, Mr. Sooraj Barjatya. That's all I have to say. Don't want to sound harsh but when you're returning after so many years, this is not the result people expect.. I mean, even Jai Ho was edited way better..

Armaan was OK.

Neil had such a GR8 chance to show his talent but what a fail...he is not a good performer at all.

Sonam was good

Swara and other sister were good too.
Anupam-Salman were good.

Back to Salman, what do I say about you? Prem Dilwale... don't you think you promoted Lungi a bit too much throughout this movie? 😆 -- I'm sooo proud of you Mr Khan. THANK YOU FOR YOUR AMAZING PERFORMANCE 🤗

1. Pre-Carriage Accident scene. When Vijay gets emotional on his way back home, I got teary too..."if this is called family...then i'm better alone" 😭 can I just hug you tightly? This scene touched me. Your expressions are priceless.

2. Vijay in Red Shirt gave me a flash back Prem in HSSH.. ☺️

3. Accent. SO CUTE... and especially he spoke a couple words in french... omg it was so cute... so cute..so cute.. ☺️ If I could, I would eat you Mr .Khan. SO CUTEEE 😳

I think he said: "Bonjour Monsieur Frederique...Comment t'allez vous?"

Mr Khan, stop giving me hints...yes yes you can speak french too..bas ab ajao...I'm waiting.. 😭

4. The way Mr. Khan switched from Vijay to Prem. His voice modulation was exceptional. OH MY GOODNESS. Those those people who say he can't act, I want to know what is acting ?? 😕

Note I said, "those those" 😉😳😆 "those those places" ☺️😆

5. Halo Re was misplaced... I think that song wasn't required. These little details matter a lot.

6. When Prem says MOVE IT to Diwan Saab . 🤣 😲😳 So cuteee 😳

7. "I accept all your complaints, lekin pyar nahi karta, yeh mat likh wayiye.."

☺️

8. Kitchen scene was really adorable. Salman SHINES in black.. I think the kitchen scene was the most emotive out of everything else. Prem realizing he isn't Vijay in Jalte Diye...beautiful...HOT..cute..just amazing.. my heartbroken baby I could just imagine myself with him in the kitchen...Salman cooking for me, etc etc.. what a scene that was. 😳 😆

The male part in Jalte Diye "Mera Nahi Diya jo Mera liye Jal Raha" ..So apt.

9. " Rajkumari, it's all in the mind" 😆

10. Mr Khan looked FLIPPIG HOTTT in Sherwani during Soccer Match. 😲😲 Can I add another 0.5 to the 3 stars. 😲😳 He looked so fresh, so young, and didn't even have to use dental plaster to mold his face like the guy in Gerua song did ..looked like Madame Tussauds statue in action. 😆 😆 😆

11. Sheesh Mahal was waste of money. If they really spent time and money on it, please explain me why. It increased the budget for no reason.

12. When Prem hugs the sisters..that remains one of the best scenes.. Mr Khan's expressions are so natural...to die for. I can just imagine him hugging Arpita and Alvira.

13. When Prem and Vijay meet in Sheesh Mahal. My heart was RACING. That scene...Prem says "RAJA BHAIYAA" to Vijay..☺️. ..that was so cute..I felt my family was complete.. Me, Vijay and Prem.. ❤️😆 5/5 to this scene.. ⭐️

I just love it...this is what I was wishing for and I got it.. I definitely wish this film was executed a better ..

I don't believe this film has a budget of 180 crore..😆 is BOI high on Speed? At most 70-80 crore and that's because apparently Sooraj built the Sheesh Mahal as well as the Palace? Why build a sheesh Mahal if the VFX was going to be horrendous? aghr.

The last scene, Vijay telling Prem "I've followed your advice, I look like you now" 😆😳 My babies ❤️☺️

This film is solely riding on Salman. Not only is he taking advantage of his stardom, but he has also performed very well. He has done a great job as Vijay and Prem. It takes a lot of dedication to perform 2 distinctive roles so gracefully.

Intitally I loved Vijay only but I fell in love with Prem at several instances.

A round of Applause of Salman KHAN... 👍🏼

Will I watch PRDP again sometime? Yes I will. ⭐️ I love family dramas and old bollywood films and this is just what suits my needs.

2015 is ours...and 2016 will be OURS too.
