Losing proposition can never be termed as HIT
by Aurang on Feb 23, 2010 05:40 PM

MNIK costs for FOX 100 Crore including print and publicity. This cost includes only theatrical and music rights, excludes satellite and video rights. Deducting revenue of 5 Crore for music revenues, MNIK need to fetch 95 Crore for FOX just recovery. Recovery is not possible at the moment. Total remuneration worldwide would be around 120-130 Crore which will give DS of around 65-75 Crore. This will yield to Loss of 20-25 Crore. Despite of decent numbers from domestic market and very good numbers from overseas, Price tag will fail for MNIK. LMNIK costs for FOX 100 Crore including print and publicity.

so accept it when compared with these movies mnik is a super flop

You can never see somebody who is capable of taking up realistic roles and perform them with total ease..that honor shud go to none other than our badshah..with his performance and panache, he must have been in hollywood to have his skill recognized than being here..Had be been there he must have broken records in winning most number of oscars for the best actor category...unfortunately he is here..even giants like Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg wud have lined up to take movies with him.

Manama: A Bahraini man is trying to use the Bollywoood hit 'My name is Khan' starring Shah Rukh Khan to help his country's lawmakers overcome the sectarianism that has gripped the parliament and threatened to divide society.

Khalid Al Khayyat, a Bahraini who works with a bank, has offered the 40 MPs tickets to watch the movie in Manama and use its message to spread greater tolerance in the lower chamber and society and foster national unity.

"My name is Khalid and I am not a sectarianist," said Khalid, taking the words from the main line in the movie, ‘My name is Khan and I am not a terrorist' that Rizwan Khan, the main Muslim character, needs to tell the people and president of the United States to win back his angry Hindu wife.

"This tickets gift is humble, but the objective is highly significant. I am offering you 40 tickets so that you can watch the movie ‘My Name is Khan' and learn from it how mutual love and tolerance are crucial for the development of any society," Khalid said in the letter he sent to the MPs.

"The movie demonstrates how hatred and resentment will only drag us into a maze of ugliness that has terribly affected our lives. The movie is a reminder of a wonderful message, and that is terrorism has no religion or sect. The people of one country, regardless of their sects, must live together as one people, and not as two sects," Khalid said.

Tell them to watch Lagey raho Munnabhai, a much better example with a similar message and much more with a simplistic tale and feel good factor and no once getting bored.

He is average actor with not the best looks.. but people luv & adore him..
there are thrillions of his fans around the world...
probably thats the reason why even the worst of his films do good bussiness...
no wonder he was able to drag people to cinema halls for MNIK despite all trouble... whats amazing was he dragged people for Rab Ne Bana De Jodi on 12Dec, within 15 days of 26/11 mumbai terror shock... wherein all the publicity for the movie was stop following 26/11...
He surely is not the Best... but people do Love him...

My name is Khan
by praveen chhajed on Feb 23, 2010 02:10 PM

My name is Khan is one of the worst movie ever made by any indian director. Really surprising how some tv channels claiming best movie.
This movie don't have any realistic and social value at all.

Rediff is bought by shiv sena. MNIK is the biggest grosser overseas beating 2 idiots by 2 million dollars and that also in one week. Go read Fox movies website. India is the most corrupt country.
Accept the fact, you fool. It is a super block buster in terms of money and numbers of eye balls. Wait when FOX Movies is going to open it for mainstream USA, turkey, germnay, syria, Israel, Jordan, Iran, Iraq, New zealand, ireland, and 10 more countries. It will be the biggest bollywood grosser.

You are abs right. That 'shitsena' tried to ruin the movie but did not succeed.

Shame on rediff SRK-haters, they can't see the beauty of the message in this movie and continue to bash it.

If the movie has a message it is to say terrorist are humans and blame a democratic country namely the US as propogating human right violation. It is a prpoganda material for the terrorist. it tries to justfy a cause which in any case is lost. the movie is a nadir in SRK's career . No matter who you call a fool( which in itself shows your frustration and lack of upbringing), the fact remains that this movie will be a looser in short a flop. Badly made movie, wrong publicity stunt and the result, Pune blasts and hafeez Saeed Spewing venom on TV and saying we will defeat India in Kashmir as we have done to US in Afghanistan. So much for patriotism too. U know why we lost so many historical battles. We had people like Jai Chand always amonst us. Don't be a Jai Chand be an Indian.
