Year 2016 has been strictly average in terms of box office business for Bollywood films. Barely few movies, all others have been flop left and right. If we exclude business done by Dangal and Sultan then can be said as a disappointing year so far.
With multiple films releasing every week, we have only a few handful which can be posted as successful or plus film at box office. Only 14 films have emerged as successful or plus film.
Year 2016 saw only 8 films entering into 100 crore club. In fact Dangal and Sultan are the only films which crossed 140 crore nett mark and entered both 200 and 300 crore club this year. Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar have been big saviour for box office, otherwise it is extremely dull period for exhibitors and distributors. Biggest surprise of the year is Neerja which has exceeded all trade expectation and emerged as Super Hit.

DeletePeople talk as if Christmas never existed before 2008. All had there chances on Christmas. Akki Riding on success had both the slots diwali with action reply and Christmas with Tees Maar Khan, what happened everyone knows. The Festival seasons need a combination of Brand-Stardom-Trust-Content-Neurtal Audiecnes-Repeat values. These are required to bail the industry out of trobles. Remember Makers always make profit its the small vendors and distributors suffer. They all have hopes infact the only hope the Brand Amir in the most crucial period ( Brand-Stardom-Trust-Content-Neurtal Audiecnes-Repeat value) so Christmas never made Amir, infact its Amir made Christmas and Brought smiles to top to bottom level. Stats say in last 8-10 years it has been a small vendor loss if it was not an amir movie barring Dabang series. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteEven SRK gave Don 2 and Salman Dabang 2 during Xmas
ReplyDeleteThe excuses were innovative from bhaitards ..Too cold in North
