Prince is a semi hit and a tight scripted movie with hollywood superb actions and this analyst Vinod Mirani is not finding anything positive in it .May be he likes dostana kind of movies.

Mr. Forest Gump, did u come out from jungle? Fine, now listen carefully, after 8th week MNIK has collected 73 crores, and Housefull has collected 69 crores in it's 3rd weeks. So, don't bark Housefull is the biggest HIT till today, and will remain since Akki's next movie release. Get well soon.

Forrest Gump and opiniated Man - You guys have talent and knowledge. I'm really impressed. To be honest to you, whether the information you are giving is true or not true, but the way you guys debate and argue is really healthy and interesting. Way to go.

if u combine the box office collections of all SRK movies and compare it to the collections of all Aamir movies, SRK's figures aare much higher...so he is justifyingly called the badshah of bollywood...its like saying virender sehwag is better than sachin tendulkar because he hit 2 triple centuries...but Sachin has highest no. of runs and centuries...hope u got the drift?

i said aamir is outcast as people always speak of SRK as superstar when they talk of bollywood...like how they talked about Amitabh earlier...if u see more closely people like rishi kapoor gave far bigger hit with karz than many amitabh movies but amitabh was talked as the superstar coz of the appeal he had with the audience..same with SRK

The arguments and examples do not go together dude.
1) Aamir came to the industry much before SRk and still rules the industry.( Unlike Sachin Sehwag cimparison)
2) Aamir has better national recognition than SRK( Read Padma awards)
3) Today MSD hasd greater tax returns than Sachin, that does not make him a greater cricketer than Sachin.
4) If you see percentage succes Aamir is much higher.
5) As far as Rishi kapoor goes, he has given hits but can never dream in a life to give parallel golden jubilee hits( multiple times) and multiple nominations for awards year on year in the seventies.

1. Aamir came to the industry much before SRk and still rules the industry
Pls specify he rules in what way? SRK has more brands, more awards, is recognized globally more as a superstar...and called King Khan. Aamir is just known for acting in his movies and is zero as a star.
2. Aamir has better national recognition than SRK( Read Padma awards)
Padma awards are given as per seniority...SRK got Padma Shri 4 yrs after Aamir got it and will be the same for Padma Bhushan too...anyway Padma awards are now a controversial award so it does not matter.
2. Today MSD hasd greater tax returns than Sachin, that does not make him a greater cricketer than Sachin.
Exactly the point i made regarding Aamir whose last 2 films may have fetched more but his overall career has been way behind SRK as far as box office collections are concerned. SRK also has record of longest running movie in Indian history.
4. If you see percentage succes Aamir is much higher.
Ponting's average or for that matter Kallis's is more than Sachin...does it make him a better batsman than Sachin? Cmon u can do better than that.
5. As far as Rishi kapoor goes, he has given hits but can never dream in a life to give parallel golden jubilee hits( multiple times) and multiple nominations for awards year on year in the seventies.
Exactly the same arguement i fielded for SRK vis a vis Aamir.
You are contradicting yourself coz u can't accept SRK's superstardom coz for some reason u hate him!!!

Aamir rules the industry is a known fact. I never said SRK is bad, you just want to prove that AAmir is pathetic, which is absolutely wrong.
If you say Aamir is not a star you yourself know that your are speaking rubbish
Padma awards are given based on success only, If seniority was the case Sanjay Dutt would have got it long back.
Aamir hasn't seena flop since Mangal pandey, SRK has always given flops in any period of his films.

known fact..are u the authority to decide what is known or not known...be real man...i never said Aamir is pathetic..just said that he is outcast...read the messages properly next time...and btw i reassert that Aamir is not a star...i gave u reasons for that too...he is just an actor who chooses good movies..and again u lie by saying SRK gives flops for any period...after 2005, even SRK has not given a flop and 6 of his movies have released as against 4 of Aamir's....

If Kites is worth watching then so is Neel and Nikki, Humko Deewana Kar Gaye, etc..
which also have good locales, etc..
If anyone is a hrittik fan he willl like it, cos that is the only thing shown in the film.
It is not anyone's fault, with such a wafer thin plot what can anyone do.
Atleast thanks to Ayanika the cinematography is decent so people could sit through the 2 hours..

not next to 3 Idiots Suraj....pls correct ur data....its next to 3I only on friday where 3I collected 13.5 crore nd Kites 10.75 crore....but in terms of weekend collection Kites is at no.5 behind 3I,Housefull,MNIK nd Ghajini....

Kites is the biggest release in terms of prints...so if u take per screen avg its far below than other movie....its even lower than Love aaj kal nd APKGK...may be this is the reason they stated like that besause there were lot of expectation frm this movie nd many were thinking that it will break 3 Idiots record....thats y its very disappointing
