My Box Office Predictions YEH JAWAANI HAI DEEWANI - Page 3

Sureshot hit but not sure about crossing 100Cr

I had a very similar prediction in the other thread. Copying here.

Pros
1)Promotion, Cast
2) Music
3) Great release date ( Post IPL week is the 4th best release week as witnessed by Ready, Houseful 2 after Diwali, Eid and Christmas)
4) ARK
5) Youth friendly.

Cons
1) Not Single screen friendly.
2) Genre not popular in B and C centres.
3) Second week will lose a lot of screens to YPD2

Its hard for a film to reach a 100 cr without support from small towns and single screens, both which YJHD does not cater to. It is possible as witnessed by Barfi, with a fantastic WOM. YJHD is expected to take the biggest multiplex opening of the year, will it carry over to single screens is yet to be seen. Second week will see a major reduction in screen space.

Opening:15 Cr
Weekend: 48 Cr
Week 1 : 68 Cr
Lifetime : 90 Cr

I see it falling just short of the coveted 100 Cr mark.

it will be a hit...maybe the biggest hit of 2013...but then 100 crores i doubt...well one reason because of the longer duration of the film...
