Salmans stardom is plain overrated. He has given flop and average on big festivals with solo release. If there is no action masala he is totally zero. Srk never give flop on any festival even poor movie like Dilwale (which has lowest virdict among his festival release) servive very well for three weeks despite clashing with giant like BM and it was a phenomenal in overseas. Between i am curious to know Amir stardom in overseas without Xmas. Boi yet report anything. From what I saw on twitter, it's "heading for $5.6mn Overseas Weekend ($6.5mn Extended Weekend)."

If these numbers are true then aamir's stardom have badly exposed. Big canvas event movie backing with YRF and huge starcast, IMAX release still weekend collection is less than jhms 6.3mn and fan 6.1mn. It will wrap up below 9 mn

Thanks abhijacko, that was kind of you. I admire this owner's decision. He owns the cinema that has DDLJ on his screen once the day (at 11h)since its release and every time I was there, there were a lot of people who went to see it for 20 to 50 rupees. I really, really hope that ShahRukh stays away from manipulating tactics. His success should be a sincere one, not a fake one like the 50 crores of TOH's first day.

I am reading stories of Aamir sabotaging Big B's screen time during the final cut, he too demanded to be in the center stage of the posters during the making, everybody knew that Aamir was a self centered p but this is a new low even for him.

What if Aamir hadn't been in the movie quasi no Firangi (who would not be necessary for a good story of Thugs of Hindostan. Look at this...a brilliant idea, I think...t h a t could have been a good movie - with fine twists, honest emotions, good action...& above all with l o g i c and strong female leads and a gorgeous Amitji (and Aamir could have co-produced or even produced, so it could still have been h i s movie): or

Big B can't expect to be a parallel lead at his age when there's a major star in the film.

Perception is an amazing thing.
People keep saying that Akshay keeps playing the patriotism card over and over again in his movies, but Aamir is no less if you think about it
Out of his last 15 movies, he has had Lagaan, Mangal Pandey, Rang De Basanti and Thugs in which he keeps on fighting the British one way or another. Dangal also made use of the patriotism angle full on. That is 1/3rd of his movies. He hardly takes any risks if you think about it. His supposedly "risky" characters are all set in safe movies. Such a hollow super stardom imo

Boi is comparing 4 days weekend of TOH with 3 days weekend of fan and jhms. Still it is well behind. Overseas collections are truly shocking. i am happy that srk is not doing any with yrf and kjo at least another 2-3 years

And you're absolutely right with "perception"...in art (cinema or other) it is what matters the most...and - alas - too often also in regard to people.

His blockbuster stardom clout started with RajKumar Hirani's collaboration and everyone in industry knows Hirani is a master of screenplay and editing. D3 was pure luck + christmas release. Dangal was a good script and they executed very well.

It is really very nice of him to say such things about Aamir and Amitabh I remember, long time ago, in an award function that Amitabh was laughing gleefully when SRK made some jokes about the failure of RA one

Box Office: Thugs of Hindostan is a disaster, Badhaai Ho still going strong By Joginder Tuteja , Nov 14, 2018 - 1:19 pm IST Thugs of Hindostan is continuing to go down at a rapid pace, what with Tuesday bringing in a mere Rs. 4 crore*. Though compared to Monday this may appear to be somewhat ‘normal’ fall, it is not really the case since the film is running in 5000+ screens. That makes these numbers look really horrific. The film has collected Rs. 128.50 crore* so far in the Hindi version and at maximum one can expect the first week to close around Rs. 135 crore mark. Ideally these should have been the first three days collections of the film, especially if one considers the fact that Day One brought in Rs. 50.75 crore. DISASTER. www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/box-office-special-features/box-office-thugs-hindostan-disaster-badhaai-ho-still-going-strong/

Will Aamir Khan Be Affected By Dismal Response To Thugs Thursday 15 November 2018 12.15 IST Box Office India Trade Network Q. Will Aamir Khan be affected by the dismal response to Thugs of Hindostan as its not just the box office but the audience and the media are also very negative and this has never happened for Aamir Khan. Mohd. Saifi A. A 50 crore nett opening has also never happened for Aamir Khan. Stardom is about the opening and not about what anyone says as that is all opinions. Where a film goes after the opening is down to the film, sometimes they will work and sometimes they wont. The difference with Aamir Khan is the volume of films is so less so they are expected to work post the initial as the selecting and scripting process is very long with his films. The backlash could be due to the fact its an Aamir Khan film and people dont expect content like Thugs Of Hindostan. When limited work is done by a major star then its always beneficial for big lifetime numbers but when a film goes wrong then there is also long wait to rectify that mistake. A Salman Khan has a Kick around the corner after Jai Ho and a Tiger Zinda Hai not long after Tubelight. The stardom of Aamir Khan remains unaffected and the next film should prove that but you cant afford to take a long break and thats not only for Aamir Khan but all the older actors. Big stars should should put their stardom on the line as much as they can. The more films there are from big stars the better it is for the industry. A Thugs Of Hindostan may go wrong but there are very few films that create this sort of interest with the audience and that is what gives a film huge potential. boxofficeindia.com/report-details.php?articleid=4439

Oh look what Sateesh came with. An opening like that is nothing to be thrilled about. 5000+ theaters on a huge holiday weekend and a solo release with raised ticket prices. Not only that it was supposed to be "two legends coming together" with Aamir and Amitabh. And even then, I think the first day numbers were fake. YRF just wanted to get it into headlines that it's a record breaking movie so people would get curious and go see it. They are huge manipulators. Look at what they are doing with the Thugs trailer. They have been running ads on youtube for the trailer for the last 2 weeks to increase the views. The ads are up even after the movie already came and flopped. Not only that, every single day they change the thumbnail to brag about the views increasing. Now they are celebrating that it got 100 million views. What kind of victory is this where the movie is a disaster but they celebrating youtube views?

I don't get why this article had to be posted here. Who questioned Aamir's career. TOH was a garbage film and it got what it had coming to it. Aamir Khan has delivered some stinkers in the past and this will add to the list. The collections are beyond shocking cuz even crap like Dhoom3 made money. This article posted here seems defensive.

...and I even doubt the 50 crore the first day...they just had to make a (positive) record.
No, Aamir will not be "affected"

I wonder what will happen to Aamir's Mahabharat project after TOH debacle. If I am correct, he usually takes a portion of the profits as major part of his salary. I don't think he is going to get much over here
I think we will see another Aamir film in another year or so, as opposed to the rumors doing the round that he was going to take a long break to work on Mahabharat

‘Thugs of Hindostan’ became a big disaster, makes 1.25 crore on its ninth day By Shambhavi - November 20, 2018 Bollywood legend and perfectionist starrer movie ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ fell flat at the box office. It was claimed to be the most expensive Bollywood movie but it only succeeded to collect 1.25 crores on its ninth day of release. This movie became one of the biggest disaster of Bollywood till date. The film which reportedly cost 300 crore, only recovered 141 crore in total. The film had a grand opening with 50 crores on the day of its release but the number kept on decreasing over the week. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh compiled the film’s day to day business and posted it on twitter. Taran wrote that 37% of the film’s first week collections came on day one. The film got 18% rating on a review aggregated site, rotten tomatoes. Thugs disappointingly made 56 crores in overseas market. Whereas, Ayushmann Khurrana’s ‘Badhai Ho’ became a Blockbuster and entered 100 crore club earning 120 crores since its release. This weekend’s release Pihu opened with 45 lakhs on its first day but according to Taran numbers might increase because of viewers positive feedback. www.theindianwire.com/entertainment/thugs-hindostan-became-big-disaster-makes-1-25-crore-ninth-day-81554/
