if so why did DDD also gross huge considerig it had non of these factors, hardly promoted. it actually made 49 crore end of 4 weeks. rediff just mentioned 2 weeks collection.
K:I has a budget above 50 crores n Vishal Bharadwaj himself told that Kaminey is a failure...Then how come rediff adds them to the list of biggest hits??

Box office: IBOS Network (pl give credit where its due, even if its not a SRK movie)
Meanwhile the much more efficiently made 15 crore budget PAA has put together a streak at the box office unseen by any film this year. The film's box office from weekend 1 to weekend 2 to weekend 3 have remained rock solid in terms of occupancy. No film, no hit film this year has shown this kind of cementedness week after week. What's more, 3rd weekend showed pickups in Uttar Pradesh. Ironically in this region Paa hadn't scored spectacularly earlier. In fact this 3rd weekend Sunday had PAA recording housefull turnouts in Fun Cinema of Agra in West UP, Wave at Lucknow, Cinemax in Ahmedabad, V3S Laminagar in Delhi, as well as a number of both single screens (Roxy, Central Plaza) and multiplexes in Mumbai, Noida, Chandigarh, and Ludhiana. Big movies don't last past 3 days nowadays and Paa has recorded 3 back to back to back weeks charting almost a straight line adding up. The film has crossed Rs. 40 crores net and Rs 50 (70-75 crore gross) is not out of radar over the next several days as the film is pulling its business regardless of any other release or competition (Rocket Singh, Avatar). It is quite possible the film could breeze through even in 4th week despite 3 Idiots because of the christmas holidays and the kind of demographics (women and large family groups) that have taken to the film in a big way.
Even if the film doesn't end up necessarily as the top gross collector, its turno

Even if the film doesn't end up necessarily as the top gross collector, its turnover as percentage of cost (return on investment) is almost certain to be the highest of 2009. As mentioned earlier, the 15 crore cost Amitabh Bachchan film has been acquired for satellite broadcast for Rs. 10-12 crores by Star network few days back, reportedly more than twice the amount generated for hits like Love Aaj Kal, touted a big box office success. Colors channel is said to have paid Rs. 5 crores for similar acquisition of Ajab Prem Ki Ghajab Kahani, another superhit of the year so far, faring better than films like Wanted (Salman Khan-Ayesha Takia) itself. So simply put, this would be because the TRPs of Paa's first telecast on television are expected to be higher than these other bollywood hits of 2009. Given much of the production cost is being recovered from ancillary right such as tv and audio, and the returns from theatrical shares keep on growing almost linearly, all points to the fact that Paa is among those rare hits where all entities in the supply chain (producers, distributors, exhibitors) are all minting money in total.

Paa has been purchase exclusively while Ajab prem ki ghazab kahani is being paid 5 crore for 1 time viewing only. A major fact

rediff had declared 95% of these movies to be flop from day 3 suddent change of stance was it just a ploy to sabotage business of these movies by spreading rumours

Sarukh truly does not deserve to be among the best bolllywood list. Apart from Swadesh I have never seen him play any genuine role.Overacting cannot deliver you good at the end of the day.......
