Singham Returns (2014)

[Sushubh]

I remember seeing Singham in theater. I am not sure why I did that considering I generally avoid hindi movies. I think it was a decent flick.

yep SOS was bad. but it did put up better collection(100+) than BB and Singham despite Jab tak hai

 

[Manish24]

Yep i Singham was decent. So was Dabangg.. not so hopeful with the sequel. 1 had quite a few comic elements which worked in its favor

Figures are from this website: Boxoffice.

no way. I follow that website. Iirc it did around 97cr

I cannot check the figures myself because it requires subscription. The above figures are from Wikipedia which quotes this website as the source.

 

[Manish24]

wiki says the same thing which comes around 98cr

Singham earned

980.0 million(US$16 million) nett in India, at the end of its theatrical run

So you are only going to refer to Indian Theater revenues? Ok.

 

[Manish24]

Yes obviously. Its all about domestic "NET" business. Nobody cares about overseas as those are in gross figures

 

[Manish24]

also i dont think you know this- when you hear a movie did 100cr blah blah. they are talking about DOMESTIC business lol. If worldwide figures are considered for every film, there would have been 50+ (100cr) films till now

I do not think I quoted any director. I just said that Singham 1 did great business for its time and Singham 2 is likely to do much much better because the casting is better this time around. And of course ticket prices are higher. The hype is more. The marketing is more (Tata is doing a lot of marketing for the movie). Eveh shitty movies cross Rs. 100 crores. Singham 2 is going to do extremely well. I mean I might end up going to a late night show for it if I can find the company. Who doesn't like flying cars and humans and explosions and squeezing of virtual boobs in the air!
