Aurangzeb First Weekend Collection

2013-05-20T15:15:00.002+05:30

Aurangzeb has collected around 12.55 crore nett in its opening weekend at the box office. It collected around 4.75 crore nett on Sunday. It registered a growth of around 20% on Sunday from Saturday. Jump is low considering Saturday collection is below par.

Aurangzeb hardly showed any decent jump through the weekend. It started slowly on Friday and remained on same level on Saturday. Sunday it showed minmal growth, which is just not enough. Overall film collection is very poor. Film will have difficulty to sustain well in the weekdays and only a miracle can save the film now.

Collection Breakup -

Friday - 3.9 crore nett.

Saturday - 3.9 crore nett.

Sunday - 4.75 crore nett.

Total - 12.55 crore nett.

Latest on Peekay (P.K.) Astronomical Distribution Rights Deal.

2013-05-19T17:24:00.000+05:30

Few days back we have revealed that Peekay (P.K.) is sold for a astronomical theatrical distribution rights. It was reported that PK is sold for a astronomical 118 crore to UTV in our earlier report. So, here is some official more news on that. Actually Disney UTV has brought the PK worldwide distribution rights for around 140 crore. Out of this UTV will pay 25 crore for marketing and promotion of the film in India and Overseas. That means UTV will pay Vidhu Vinod Chopra production house, along with Aamir Khan to promote the film in India and abroad.

Plus in the deal they have mentioned a MG of INR 115 crore for India and Overseas theatrical rights. This is big. If one takes even around 30-35 crore for Overseas distribution share. Then also around 80 crore need to be recovered from India Theatricals. That means around 160 crore nett from India domestic Box Office business itself.

Now few cynics will start shouting that if Peekay doesn't collect 160 crore nett in India it will be a flop. That is wrong. Makers of the film can command any price from the distributors. They want to make profit that's only. If UTV are confident on the product, then they can buy for whatever price they want. As for layman language if Peekay fails to collect around 150-160 crore nett in India, then UTV may be in red. But there are still many ways to recover the money, which is not feasible to discuss right now as it is long way for the film to release. Regarding film hit or flop status it will be more dependent on Film landing cost at the time of release, which is a far way now.

All eyes on Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. Movie Preview.

2013-05-19T12:06:00.001+05:30

Box Office came to respite with Aashiqui 2 providing the necessary 'Sanjeevani' in the month of IPL time. Apart from Aashiqui 2 there is hardly any film that excelled the expectation of trade. There are still few films running well in theaters, but all eyes of trade is now on Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani releasing on 31st May.

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani stars Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapur, Kalki Koechlin. Film is directed by Ayan Mukerji. Ranbir Kapoor has given back to back hits with Rockstar and Barfi!. Deepika Padukone is coming from the success of Cocktail and Race 2. Aditya Roy Kapur is a well known star after his super success from Aashiqui 2. Kalki is a talented actress and it is well known by the movie buffs. So, YJHD has all its aces ready to unleash this May.

Trailer response of YJHD is positive from all around. Songs like Badtameez Dil and Balam Pichkari is already chartbuster. Chemistry of Ranbir and Deepika in the film is most talked about in the tinsel town. Hardly from their onscreen chemistry one can judge that they are separated couples.

Ranbir Kapoor has always been this talented Kapoor clan from his early days. Films like Wake Up Sid, Rocket Singh - The Salesman of The Year showed his acting talent. But Deepika Padukone has come the hard way. She started as Glamour doll, even faltered in few films, but took surprise by all with her superlative performance in Cocktail. 'Veronica' in Cocktail is tailor made for her and she delivered it to the core. Now she is a confident new age actress of Bollywood.

With around 12 days to go for the release of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, this is the right time to write up a preview of this much awaited film of the year. We are soon coming with the box office prediction in few days time. Once, the screens are known its better to predict the box office of the film. YJHD movie promotion is full time on. Makers are keeping the pace up with marketing and publicity. Both leading actors are literally seen all over India in every promotional event. Film budget is made on around 40 crore (Film Cost - 25 crore + PA - 15 crore). Still the official figure on budget is to be known, but the amount should be in that range.

As for recovery of the landing cost, it should not be much of difficulty with India Theatrical, Overseas Theatrical, Non-Theatrical Revenue (Satellite Rights + Music + Home Video + Others). Film should be into profits after first 3-4 days in India Theatrical if all goes well. But makers will definitely vouch for a Clean Hit status or even more. Also, they will want YJHD to enter the coveted 100 crore club which is very lonely right now in 2013.

Collection Breakup -

Friday - 3.9 crore nett.

Saturday - 3.9 crore nett.

Total - 7.8 crore nett.

Aurangzeb First Day Box Office Collection

2013-05-18T11:14:00.001+05:30

Aurangzeb has collected around 3.75 crore nett all India on Opening day at the box office. Film started slowly, but picked up little through the day to come out with average numbers for the first day. Film has registered an occupancy of around 25-30% on average for the day. Film has performed little better in Northern part of India. Delhi, Gurgaon, East Punjab registered decent occupancy of around 35-40%. Rest of India was extremely poor with occupancy of 20-25% on average for the day.

Aurangzeb stars Arjun Kapoor in lead role and his last outing Ishaqzaade performed better then Aurangzeb at the box office at least for the first day. Reason of average outing of Aurangzeb may be its average music and low pre-release hype. Film should show growth on Saturday and Sunday. Even with jump Aurangzeb should garner only 13-14 crore nett for the opening weekend at most which will be below par.

Where are Those 100 crore films in Bollywood? Are they still coming?

2013-05-18T02:24:00.001+05:30

Bollywood has seen a total of Nineteen 100 crore (Nett) films at the Indian Box Office. Ghajini started the trend in 2008 and Race 2 is the last one in 2013. In fact, last year (2012) witnessed a total of 9 films crossing the 100 crore hurdle. One would have thought after the superb box office performance in 2012 that 100 crore is now the minimum Hit benchmark and at least 2013 will see two figure 100 crore films. But what happened in 2013 is surprising and shocking. Only Race 2 just scrapped into the 100 crore club. Forget about 200 crore, films are struggling even to reach 100 crore nett now.

Here are some of the 100 crore club statistics -

2008 - Ghajini become the first film in Indian Box Office history to reach 100 crore nett mark.

2009 - 3 Idiots become the first film in Indian Box Office history to reach 200 crore nett mark.

No of 100 crore films -

2013 - 1 Film* (Race 2)

2012 - 9 Films (Ek Tha Tiger, Dabangg 2, Rowdy Rathore, Agneepath, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Housefull 2, Barfi!, Son of Sardaar, Bol Bachchan)

2011 - 5 Films (Bodyguard, Ready, Ra.One, Don 2, Singham)

2010 - 2 Films (Dabangg, Golmaal 3)

2009 - 1 Film (3 Idiots#)

2008 - 1 Film (Ghajini)

*2013 is Still to be finished

#3 Idiots in fact reached 200+ crore nett

With 2012 garnering Nine 100 films, one would have expected the number to multiply in 2013. But alas! So what's wrong actually?

Answer in simple word is that in the first 5 months of 2013, films have failed miserably on the expectations of audiences. Yes, big star films are still to be released, but still results are miserable.

Films which should have been into the 100 crore club in 2013 - Three films that right now comes to the mind which should have been into the 100 crore club are Special 26, Himmatwala and Shootout At Wadala. Out of these Himmatwala should have been easily crossed 100 crore nett mark with the hype and pre-release buzz. But film content is criticised by both critics and audiences and it failed to touch even 50 crore nett mark. Secondly Special 26 starred Akshay Kumar and it was expected to be in the 100 crore club. But even with positive reports film failed to touch the coveted club of 100 (although Special 26 is a Semi-Hit with profits for makers & most of the distributors!). Reason, many says is the genre of the film. But if that was the sole reason, then films like Barfi! would have not touch 100 crore. Lastly, Shootout At Wadala is released with much fanfare and hype. Yes, film is still running in the theaters, but it is an open secret that film will end up in the region of around 60 crore nett mark.

Surprise of The Year? When there is disappointment at the box office, there will be pleasant surprises also. Aashiqui 2 has emerged as the biggest surprise package of the year. Film has touched 65 crore nett mark and speeding towards 70 crore nett. But even with that it is certain that film will not touch 100 crore nett, at most it can do a business of 75-80 crore nett. In fact Aashiqui 2 has outperform every expectations of trade and even makers are surprised now with the collections. As a film trade portal we would still love to see Aashiqui 2 into 100 crore, but for that Aam Junta has to do the miraculous job.

So, what's store in remaining 2013? Don't get disappointed. Indian Box Office always been slow in the first half of the year and despite knowing that only one film has crossed 100 crore nett, at least expect few mores to pass the coveted mark. 2012 record looks difficult to be broken right now, but a bare minimum of 4-5 films should touch or cross 100 crore by the end of the year. So, which are the films that has a direct or indirect shot at the 100 crore club. Below are the list.

List of films that has direct shot at 100 crore -

1. Dhoom 3

2. Krrish 3

3. Chennai Express

4. Mental (If released in 2013)

5. OUATIM 2

6. Satyagraha

7. Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani

List of films that has outside chance of touching 100 crore -

8. Boss

9. Yamla Pagla Deewana 2

10. Besharam

11. Ghanchakkar

12. Ram Leela

13. Phata Poster Nikla Hero

14. Rambo Rajkumar

15. Gori Tere Pyar Mein

16. Lootera

17. Raanjhanaa

These are the major 17 films that has any chance of touching the 100 crore club in 2013. So, readers what do you think? Will 2013 be a better year than 2012? Is there a realistic chance of touching or surpassing 9 films record of 2012? Is there any other film outside of the above mentioned list, which can surprise us and enter into the 100 crore. Do let us know your thoughts. Cheers!

Shruti Haasan Latest Interview. Talks about her Famous Parents!

2013-05-17T11:31:00.000+05:30

Shruti Haasan is a fiercely sensitive and independent person who is selective about the people she likes. She is deeply emotional, but hides it. She is a trained Hindustani classical singer who sung her first Ilaiyaraaja song at the age of six. While she considers her father’s acting more comprehensive, she has taken after her mother’s spontaneity as an actor. Ahead of her upcoming release Ramaiya Vastavaiya, she talks to Bombay Times about her normal childhood, why her parents’ separation did not bother her as much and how she considers herself a dark horse whose time is yet to come. Excerpts from the interview.

You had star parents (Kamal Haasan and Sarika). What was your childhood like? I was born and brought up in Chennai. My dad is an Iyengar and my mom a half-Maharastrian and half-Rajput. The Iyers have the better looking boys and the Iyengars the prettier girls. When I was five, I had the privilege of seeing my parents getting married. Though we were already a family, my parents wanted two children and my mom wanted to get married only when they had the second child. So as soon as my sister Akshara was born, they got married in a beautiful ceremony at home. My mum tells me I was upset that day as I was not getting any attention. I went to a utopian montessori school not based on money. My mum wanted us to have our own identity and we went to school in a bus and learnt through tactile practical application. I was not good at studies but my school encouraged us to do what we were good at. Each of us, who graduated from the school, developed unique personalities — a little cracked but it became what each of us were good at. My mother stopped working when I was born but she worked on costumes for my father's films and was thus always on the set. So I have memories of doing my homework next to the generator van on the set and hanging out in papa's makeup van after school. I had normal, non-filmy friends and did not even know children of other actors. We lived in our own bubble.
Did the separation of your parents trouble you? Firstly, they are only separated but still married. From a young age I have learnt to accept people for what they are and I have always looked at my parents as individuals and tried to look at life from the other person’s point of view as I expect other people to do that to me. I didn’t care if they were together or not but just wanted them to be happy. What tends to happen is when you are growing up and you have famous parents, it’s all about them. Then whey they have problems it’s again all about them. So you feel, ‘Who the hell am I?’ While they did not do it on purpose, it forged me to build my own personality. I took to music that became my life and my outlet.

Did your father support you financially? My mother moved to an apartment in Chennai with Akshara and me when I was 15. Since then, she has been financially independent. We grew up in this mansion with a swimming pool, but we were attached to the home and not to the house. I remember while we were living together, my dad asked us if it was ok to mortgage our house for a movie he was producing and we said yes because for us being together was more important than living in that house. When we moved out even though we could not splurge on cars or expensive clothes and knew that we had to cut corners, we were comfortable. I have been financially independent from my first film and proud of what I have earned, be it my house or car. My mom is a great cook and I have to buy her a big house with a giant kitchen.

What was the lowest period in your life? When my heart was broken and there is only one person in the world who has done that. I realised it was not meant to be and really loved the person. If a movie does not do well you can do another one, if a song is not good, you can change the chorus but when you choose somebody, you are at the mercy of that person’s love.

Let’s talk about your mother? She is one of the most determined women I know. She decided to act after 20 years and won a National Award. Now that I am acting, she is more a friend to me and my relationship is stronger with her as there is so much I can share with her and relate to. She is particular about certain things, so the tameez thing is big in our house. So we will call our parents mammaji and bappuji and touch their feet before we do something important. We called him Bappuji as he really likes Mahatma Gandhi. My mom is a simple person who will still take a rick many a times and will prefer a Linking Road handbag to an expensive branded one. She is extremely sensitive to how her kids are feeling.

What about your relationship with your dad? He is my greatest inspiration as an artiste and is a person who knows something about everything. He is extremely hardworking even at the age of 60. He starts at 5.30 am, does not party at all and all he does is cinema. He looks all serious and intense, but is a really funny person.

You seem to be fiercely independent.

I am extremely independent right from when I was a kid and would not let my mother help me in my homework. I will always solve my problems myself. While I love my family, I need my space and I’m one of those people who likes to wake up and sleep alone. Which is why I am devastated at the idea of marriage.

Do you see yourself getting married? Yes, but I don’t know when. The person I get married to has to be kind which is difficult — you find the ones who smell well, talk well, look nice and the ones who win their awards but at the end of the day it boils down to someone who can make you laugh and is kind. But he also needs to be having that fighting spirit in life. He could be a doctor or anything else, but needs to be talented at whatever he does.

Were you dating Dhanush? He is my artistic best friend and I am not going to go around justifying that to people. For me, he is one of the most wonderful actors to work with and my film 3 with him was the turning point in my career. He is brilliant be it in acting, writing or in music so for me it was like finding a friend in the industry who was on the same wavelength. I can proudly say that he is a friend of mine and I would like to work with him in the future.

Are you religious? My dad’s an atheist and we never had a puja room in our house while growing up, but I would sneak out to visit the church and the temple even then. I get a lot of my answers through my faith in God and always feel that there is some power looking after me.

Any learnings from the industry? Never bitch someone out unless you can do it on the person’s face. Also, don’t bother about what others are signing, or earning or whatever else. I just have this faith in the universe and believe that I have a time and am a dark horse in a long race. Vidya Balan and Irrfan are examples of that. Apart from the fact that she is a Tamilian, she is a rockstar who has found her own way and is so good at what she does and is also content. I have also learnt to not care about opinions of others as I know that they are not going to act for you and they will not pay your bills.

Aurangzeb Box Office Opening Update

2013-05-17T10:58:00.001+05:30

Aurangzeb is released at the Indian Box Office this Friday (Today). Film has opened to lukewarm response as far as Morning shows are concerned. Occupancy of on average 10-20% is registered across all India. In premium multiplexes occupancy is better but still below par.

Film stars Arjun Kapoor, Sashaa Agha, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Jackie Shroff, Rishi Kapoor, Amrita Singh, Sikander Kher in pivotal roles. Aurangzeb is an upcoming Bollywood action crime thriller film directed by Atul Sabharwa.

There is not so much expected from Aurangzeb. We know that it will not take box office by storm because of the star cast and just average pre-release hype. Although Arjun Kapoor has some kind of following after his first film. Film has to depend on word of mouth and the content. If content of the film is good expect good jump on Saturday and Sunday. Film has come out from YRF camp, hence we can trust that content should be good.

Also Aurangzeb has to fight it out with Go Goa Gone, Aashiqui 2 and Shootout At Wadala which are running in Theaters. There is another new release in I Don't Love You, but it has got limited screen release and should not be a major issue.

Ranbir Kapoor the Next Best thing in Bollywood

2013-05-16T18:34:00.001+05:30

Ranbir Kapoor is just 6 years old in Bollywood, but has already shoot into the top league of actors. He gave big hits with Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani, Raajneeti, Rockstar and Barfi!. He is the newest Kapoor clan. Ranbir entered 100 crore club with Barfi! last year and it went to be one of the biggest hits of that year.

Bollywood is star driven industry as far as box office verdict goes. The top three Khans (Aamir, Shahrukh, Salman) are ruling the industry for more than 20 long years. Akshay and Ajay have also claimed to the top bracket but were rather inconsistent. Hrithik has emerged as the biggest star from 21st century and is still giving mega hits. Is Ranbir Kapoor is the next best thing to Bollywood?

Ranbir Kapoor has two releases in 2013 in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Besharam. His success ratio is good among his new age contemporaries. If these two films also adds to his success kitty then he might be in the top league.

Bollywood is still ruled by the 40+ old stars. Their fan following is wide across all India. So, it can be said that fan following is just based on age factor. No certainly not. In case of Salman Khan, Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan they were more or less overnight stars in their own right. Yes Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn slowly build their fan base. Even Hrithik Roshan was overnight star with Kaho Naa Pyar Hai. So, why no new star are coming into foray then? Simple there might not be much talented new star material in the market may be except Ranbir Kapoor. Yes, there is Imran Khan, Shahid Kapoor who is been for long time now or say Ranveer Singh. But there film choices are to be questioned.

Out of these new lad Ranbir Kapoor film choices are better. He might falter in between with few flops but most of his films has left an impact. So, one thing is certain that if Ranbir Kapoor passes the box office test in 2013, then it can be safely said that he belongs to the top bracket of stars in bollywood. In fact industry badly needs stars right now because of two important factors. Firstly major star just do 2-3 films at most in a year except say Akshay Kumar. The Khan trio in fact do at most 1-2 films. Bollywood is a star driven industry so that means it need to have more stars in market so that more successful films are made so that it benefits all associated with film industry. Right now industry is going through a low phase in 2013. If new stars are born everything related box office scenario will change and we might see top grossers in every month of the year in coming years. Who knows? Till then lets hope for best with Ranbir Kapoor who is leading the new brigade in Bollywood!

Get Set Ready for Deepika Padukone in 2013

2013-05-16T15:07:00.002+05:30

In last few years Kareena Kapoor Khan has starred in some of the biggest grossers in 3 Idiots, Golmaal 3, Bodyguard, Ra.One and Talaash to her movie list. Her numero uno status at box office is challenged by none other than beautiful Katrina Kaif with mega grossers in recent years with Raajneeti, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Ek Tha Tiger, Jab Tak Hai Jaan. Also, Priyanka Chopra has made her presence felt with mega hits in Don 2, Agneepath and Barfi! in recent years for the top slot. So, no doubt that these three leading ladies of Bollywood has cemented their places in top slot for some time.

But this year 2013 and may be in the next year 2014 we might see a new face and her name is Deepika Padukone who might be a force to reckon with for the top slot. Deepika Padukone is riding high with successes in Cocktail and Race 2 in recent times. In addition to that she will soon be in top bracket with big releases in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Chennai Express and Ram Leela all back to back releases in 2013.

Deepika Padukone first release in May 2013 is Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani which also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Kalki Koechlin and Aditya Roy Kapur. YJHD is creating lot of buzz pre-release with superb chartbuster music already. Film is a present generation love story and sure shot for one of the top grosser of 2013. After that she will be seen opposite Shahrukh Khan in Chennai Express which is directed by Rohit Shetty. Chennai Express is touted as one of the biggest film of 2013 and definitely her biggest till date. One not only expects CE to cross 100 crore at box office, but also to be one among in the top grossers of 2013, if not the top. CE is set for Eid release this year. After that Deepika Padukone will be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Ram Leela opposite Ranveer Singh. Ram Leela is on schedule for release in 29 November, 2013.

There is also confirmed news that Deepika is the leading actress opposite Kick starring Salman Khan. Kick is set for release in 2014 and is one of the biggest release in 2014. Literally all the leading ladies lobbied for the pivoted role and finally Deepika found the film in her kitty.

As moviegoers in recent time used to Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra for bagging big roles in Bollywood, it looks like tide is favouring towards Deepika Padukone slowly and her most competent rival is not Mrs Kapoor Khan or Miss Kaif or Miss Chopra, but a certain lady called Anushka Sharma in coming years.

So all die-hard Deepika fans get set ready as your favourite lady as she is soon going to have shining days in bollywood.
