Is Shahrukh Khan the number one star after Chennai Express?
A. Worldwide there is no doubt he is number one. In India the issue was pretty clear cut before Chennai Express with Salman Khan leading but now it is debateable. Basically it seems to depend on the better release dates, Salman Khan got excellent release dates with Bodyguard and Ek Tha Tiger and this year Shahrukh Khan got it with Chennai Express.

Q. Can Phata Poster Nikla Hero be the comeback of Shahid Kapoor?

A. It can if the content is good. The opening numbers should be best for a Shahid Kapoor starrer but mainly because his last release was over a year back and business is higher today but its unlikely to be that 10 crore plus opener so will depend on word of mouth.

mah... star power is soo overrated...

the collections depend on a lot of things other than the actors like the films release dates, its competition, ticket prices, content and genre of the movie, repeat value etc etc...sure having a salman or an srk helps but if we attribute all collections to star power, then by that logic all of their films irrespective of content/release should have been a hit which clearly isnt the case...

ultimately something tht pleases the crowd and has repeat value always does well at the box office...irrespective of who stars in it...

It's seems like Eid and Christmas is the best time for these big heroes to release their film. Srk and Salman always fight over Eid. Amir has Christmas.

They are no set dates and in recent times yes Salman chooses EID but this year had no movie to release otherwise would be EID..but he has released on a non holiday READY, and dabanng 2 was christmas

Whereas, SRK Likes diwali but this year hrithik took diwali (krissh 3 a biggie s coming) so he didnt want to clash with him and EID had No Salman so SRK decided to take EID as Saw the opportunity and ekta was less a threat to him, and aamir came with Taalash on a non holiday but yes this year hes coming on christmas with dhoom 3 !!
