Neerja Box Office Update: What should distributors learn from this?
Bollywoodhungama not only provide the global figures for the weekend today, they also provided a handy comparison for Neerja against other films of the same type. No, not historical based on true story dramas, other female led pictures.
Neerja: Full Weekend Figures, Beats Airlift Per Screen
Well, “steady”. With the understanding that the box office is always going to drop off a little after the weekend. But it didn’t drop off nearly as much as it could have.

Airlift Box Office Update: Best Opening of 2016 (so far)
That’s one of those headlines that sounds more impressive than it is. Yes, Airlift has the best opening of 2016. But, we are only 3 weeks into 2016, so how impressive is that, really?

Dilwale Breaks Worldwide Record, Bajirao Lags Behind
Newer Box Office Report Available HERE!!! Dilwale still leads!
Okay, the 4 week report is out, and despite losing screens worldwide, and its steep drop off in the major Indian territories, Dilwale is far outstripping Bajirao in the global box office.
In fact, it has already beat Salman’s Kick receipts, and is coming up on Shahrukh’s own records, for Happy New Year and My Name is Khan.
All of which I predicted! (if you follow those links, you can see my previous posts). But, why is this happening? Why does the global picture look so different from the local?
Update: To see how I think the new Fan “Tu Nahin Samjhega” videos relate to this, check out posts here and here.
