How come comparison for a Success movie with movie which didn't fetch that much success?

On which basis u comparing these 2 films? Are both same genre?

Y not compare Barfi with other 100 Cr films?? Barfi's Weekend = ETT's 1st day, What Barfi achieved in 4 weeks 100 cr, Ghajini did in just 14 days?? ETT in just 5 days??

Barfi is a complete washout in Single Screens, so?? just a plex hit??

Because both were from UTV and released one on top of each other. They expected Heroine to do much better and that's why they released it within one week and in double screens.
And even if Barfi is complete washout in SS it still managed 100 crores.. doesn't that say a huge lot about how well-liked the movie was to make that huge amount?
Name a single movie which had an autistic heroine and a deaf and dumb hero with no glamor, no dance items with 100 backer dancers.. no fights.. and I will compare Barfi's collection with it.

werent heroine song LQ leaked bc they build so much hype for that film halkat will be the item of the year blah blah ppl were going crazy waiting for it 😆 there were many articles that blamed heroine failure for the overhype it created but did not deliver


Does heroine was enjoying same kind of media treatment?? Don't u know how much media hyped Madhur-aish fight over heroine... So much discussion, so much rumors, yeh woh, dis n dat...

Bebo is no less star, y not to encash it, but here u guyz r bringing barfi vs heroine, which is out of question...

If barfi would have flopped, would u have called it PC's worst film or performance? NO. for u it is her best performance, now just coz it has beaten heroine n come in 100 cr league, come back n kick heroine in comparison?? wah jaar... bebo's film didn't do well, aap compare karne lag jao... what about 3 Idiots (200 cr) & Bodyguard - 21 cr opening day from Bebo's career films?? Compare karke dekh lo...??

Really?? u r contradicting ur own statement, u asked me better film between tere naam which earn less money from ready/bg. Here u r telling ke look barfi is 100 cr film just coz of those qualities, so y didn't tere naam acc. 2 u earned that much money at that time?

I wanna ask u, If barfi movie would have met disaster fate at BO, say for example 40-45 cr only in total, Would u have stopped calling it less quality film?


No.. it is actually you who is contradictory. You say Barfi was hugely hyped and had a lot of promotions.. but then you say that they released it on such few screens because they were not confident of the quality. If they were not confident then why hype in pre publicity?
And I would still call it a masterpiece if it collected 40 crore. For me the final collections don't matter as much as my personal liking. That's why i love tere Naam and hate Ready.

I would say not complete deaf n dumb, but ya Autistic hero SRK in MNIK, it was 90-100 earner back then, probably met with lot more bad reviews in india, otherwise it would have been india's 1st 100 cr film, while in overseas it is 100+ cr Indian film only indian film 2 score 100 cr in overseas.

Chalo u say about quality film doing well in plex speak a lot, how come it is lowest turner in Overseas?? There toh it shud have beaten all Srk movies, nahi?? y only 12 cr??

Okay.. this is my last post on this topic but I couldn't resist. Bebo's film never do well when they don't have a Khan in it, does it? 😆 So please don't take this as an aberration.

Without KHAN, Bebo has Golmaal 3 which has more than Barfi collection which was released on lesser screens.

Yes, it was promoted more than heroine, barfi trailer was released way back, while for heroine trailer just a month time... from stills 2 song, for heroine either delay or low quality uploads, hardly any IV, all the time RT about barfi songs being loved, barfi hype, barfi expectations n all dat...

If barfi was such a good quality film, y did makers released it on such low scale?? y not to release it on 2000-3000 screens, Quality ke time pe y do ppl always accept ke RESULT is bound to be less?

The reason for UTV releasing it on 700 screens coz they knew exactly ke target audience kamm hai as it will not be a universal appealing, only will cater to specific audience which they felt ke are not in excess.

How many Trade pundits tweeted about Heroine's day 1 collection, same ppl who were even tweeting ke dekho 1 ticket aur bik gaya barfi ka 😆
