khan rule on porkistan , this is our badluck that our media is currupt and person like shahrukh buy media person very easily . without media support shahrukh came with these stars category , ajay devgan , sunil shetty and govinda . and Khan Film is Flop In INDIA
Calcutta was being billed as one of the metros where the multiplexes are said to be still doing well for My Name is Khan. Unfortunately the reality is quite different at ground level. While the opening sat/sun were good in multiplexes in Calcutta, the film has been a freefall there also through the course of the week 1.
Regardless of assorted publicity releases predicting a 70-80% 2nd weekend after the weekday crash, 2nd weekend Friday bookings stand at a dismal 5% right now at the Fame Hiland Park multiplex according to latest reports (verifiable via ph: 033 40105555, or a direct visit at the multiplex). Once again this is the multiplex in Calcutta not a single screen. This can pick up a bit over the weekend but not by much. Situation is similar in the multiplex at Southcity mall and said to be only slightly better at the Inox theaters and RDB at Salt Lake. On the other hand, in Durg's Tarun cinema one would be lucky to find 5 people in the stalls for the afternoon or even evening shows. The 600 capacity single screen is essentially screening My Name is Khan to empty halls and near zero percent occupancies. They may might as well be shutting it down and saving on the air conditioning and electricty costs at this point.
Nationwide the pattern is not a whole lot different though there may be fluctuation here and there. Things are a bit better in Mumbai but not nearly enough. Fact of the matter is though huge number of screenings are being held again for the Shahrukh Kha

Khan starrer, the collections are very underwhelming and occupancies very low. In large number of these theaters, flops like Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and Mere Baap Pahle Aap have recorded better 2nd fridays than the Shahrukh Khan starrer opened its weekend 2 at. And they were not 100 crore movies.
Though early independent estimates based on figures and reports coming in for week 1 are conflicting indicating a week 1 net between 35-45 crores, the wide range due to bipolarity in collections, the film's worldwide collection from 9 countries in its opening weekend according to its distributor Fox International was $14.5 million (67 crores). If that were alone to be taken at face value, that is a gross figure worldwide. Typically a distributor share is only about 30-35% of gross in India and around 40-50% overseas. Given the 100 crore acquisition cost for Fox and the additional cost of marketing, procuring prints and theaters and releasing the film in these countries, the film needs to do around 250 crores gross ($55 million) reveneus for distributors to hope to come out of the red. But given the way the collections are dropping, overseas won't be sufficient, and the film could finish out with 55-60 crore net in the end in India just weeks after 3 Idiots netted almost 200 crores net in India alone, and after perhaps the biggest media frenzy and India's government resources mobilization for the sake of a movie in the history of Indian cinema ever. No film that has been billed at such

a high intensity, has seen occupancies and turnouts drop down so low so quickly.
The film is not a Dulha Mil Gaya but in the end, My Name Is Khan has been rejected across the vast preponderance of India and is a major commercial loser; arguably Shahrukh Khan's biggest flop. In immediate box office terms the comparision points to last year's flop Qurbaan but in historical box office and symbolic terms it may be comparable to Anil Kapoor's Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja, the box office debacle of 1993, which essentially ended his claim as a box office superstar after an excellent 1980s and early/mid 90s.

I went to watch 3 idiots 4th time and saw nobody was buying MNIK tickets in London Acton Vue Cinema. When I just peeked into the hall, there were hardly 4-5 people and all were pORKIS.. Its a flop.
