Dhoom 3 broke the record set by the Pakistani film Waar

The movie even broke the record set by the Pakistani film Waar last month for the highest box office collections on the first day of release

In the country’s largest city of Karachi, Dhoom:3′s box office receipts from 56 screens on its opening day was around Rs 20 million. Bollywood icon Aamir Khan’s latest release Dhoom:3 has broken box office records in Pakistan in the first week of its release, with multiplexes running five shows a day to capitalise on interest in the film.

“Waar grossed Rs 11.4 million on its opening day but Dhoom:3 has surpassed that by a large margin,” said Nadeem Mandviwalla, one of Pakistan’s leading exhibitors and distributors. Dhoom:3 was released at a time when the screening of Indian movies has come under a cloud because of an order from the Lahore High Court barring the exhibition of “illegally” imported films.

The Dhoom:3 craze in Karachi has reached such heights that multiplexes are running the film on all their screens and having five shows a day on one screen – something unheard of in the Pakistani film industry. “There is no doubt that Dhoom:3 has been a massive hit and the reason for this is clearly Aamir Khan and the pre-release publicity for the film,” Mandviwalla said.

Abdul Haq, manager of Capri Cinema here, said that while Waar was released during the Eid holidays, Dhoom:3 was released on a normal weekend. “There is great interest in the film and we are getting audiences of all ages and sexes,” Haq said.

Mandviwalla said, “Dhoom:3′s success comes at the end of a year during which Pakistani films have done well at the box office and have also been received well. “It will be interesting to see by what margin Dhoom breaks the record for the highest box office collections in Pakistan, which is held by Chennai Express with grosses of Rs 100 million.” Mandviwalla said 2013 was a great year for exhibitors and distributors and the success of Chambeli, Main Hoon Shahid Afridi, Waar, Chennai Express and Dhoom:3 showed that Pakistani and Indian films could co-exist on screens.

The movie even broke the record set by the Pakistani film Waar last month for the highest box office collections on the first day of release.

'Dhoom 3' Collects Rs 100cr in just 3 days

2013's most awaited movie Dhoom: 3 has zoomed into the box office and is breaking all previous records. After breaking the opening day record of Chennai Express, the movie has now broken  made over 100 crores in just three days, breaking the previous record of four days set by Krrish 3 this year.

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted: So here's the opening weekend total of #Dhoom3... India Rs 107.61 cr Overseas Rs 62.95 cr. Worldwide total: Rs 170.56 cr. HISTORIC!

He also added: Dhoom 3 - Sunday: Hindi Rs. 36.09 cr, Tamil & Telugu Rs. 1.94 cr. Sunday total: Rs. 38.03 cr. Grand total: Rs. 107.61 cr nett. Fantabulous

Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, the third instalment of Yash Raj Films' popular Dhoom franchise came out on Friday (December 20, 2013) and broke all previous opening day records at the box office. It had minted a total of Rs 36.22 crore at the box office beating the record set by Chennai Express set at Rs 33.12 crores. The movie made Rs 33.36 crore on Saturday and Rs 38.09 on Sunday, an official statement said.

2013, it seems, is the year for box office records to be shattered. After three years at the top of the biggest moneyspinners list, Aamir Khan's 3 Idiots found itself dislodged by Shah Rukh's Chennai Express which in turn was been toppled by Hrithik Roshan's Krrish 3. The superhero film, which opened on November 1, 2013, has collected Rs 228.23 crores in 15 days, making it the top earning Bollywood film in India. Chennai Express made Rs 226.70 cr and 3 Idiots, Rs 202.57 cr.

'Dhoom 3' Opening Day Collection

YRF’s ‘Dhoom 3’ opened with a bang in India and overseas. The film had a great advance booking which is much higher compared to ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ and ‘Chennai Express’. The film showed occupancy of 95 to 100% in the morning show. The film also opened remarkably overseas. The film was released in more than 4500 screens in India which is first time ever and 700 in international markets.

Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif, Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra starrer, ‘Dhoom 3’ is expected to make 40 crore plus business at the box-office in the opening day summing the numbers of Tamil, Telugu and Hindi version and will cross 100 crores in three days. Speculation is high that the film has made 45 crore in the opening day by totaling the domestic and international box-office numbers.

Since it is release around Christmas and New Year, it has an advantage and moreover the film also had no pressure of last week release as all the past releases are washed out of cinema halls. Since the film had a working day release, on Friday the opening collection would be bit low but it will grow up in weekends. It is the first film releasing in Pakistan after lifting the ban of Indian film release in the country. In this case also the film has an advantage.

Gautam Dutta, COO of PVR Cinemas, said, “The movie has opened exceedingly well. Going by the response for the first day, it doesn’t feel like it’s a working Friday. The first day shows witnessed high occupancies… on an average of 90 per cent.”

He said that for the first time, a movie has seen huge advance booking. “We believe the movie will have a repeat value and would have a good run for the next three-four weeks.”

Dubbed in Tamil and Telugu, the movie is available in 2 D and IMAX format.

Added Ashish Saksena, COO of Big Cinemas, “It has seen a massive opening and we are expecting this to be one of the biggest weekends. It looks like franchise movies are now establishing themselves as the audience knows what to expect.”

Trade analyst Komal Mehta informed that ‘’Dhoom 3’ had an extraordinary opening at the box-office without citing the numbers.

‘Chennai Express’ made an opening day collection of 33 crores and trade analyst feels ‘Dhoom 3’ will beat all the opening day records of all the past releases and set a historic record.

Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, ‘Dhoom 3’ the third installment of the successful franchise is the last big release of the year.

Dhoom:3 Movie Review

Aamir Khan nails it as a baddie!The third installment of the Dhoom franchise has only got better…

In 1987, a masterpiece called Hard Ticket to Hawaii arrived in theatres. It chronicled two Playboy models sent undercover to Hawaii to bust a diamond racket and battle a mutant snake. Why am I telling you about Hard Ticket to Hawaii? Because like that film, Dhoom:3 is stupid, ridiculously over the top, unbelievably hammy, hilariously terrible cheesy, contrived and non-stop fun.

Back in 2008, director Vijay Krishna Acharya made Tashan which flopped because believe it or not, it was way ahead of its time. Had it released today, in the post Rohit Shetty-Prabhu Deva Rs 100-crore era, it would easily have made a few hundred crores. Acharya got a second chance with Dhoom:3 and with its humongous budget, he’s really let his imagination go berserk.

Aamir Khan makes his entry by running vertically down a building, with currency notes flying everywhere and a background score that sounds like “We want chocolate we want chocolate”.

Abhishek Bachchan makes his entry by breaking through a concrete wall in an auto rickshaw, then jumps over rooftops in the auto and then does Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible 2 bike stunts with the auto.

Katrina Kaif makes her entry by doing a Marky Mark-“Good Vibrations”-style, five-minute-long aerobics workout (and/or striptease) as an impromptu audition for The Great Indian Circus in Chicago.

Really, Dhoom:3 is Dhoom to the power of 3. It’s 27 times as ridonkulous as the previous Dhoom films in every department. The longer it runs, the more preposterous it gets, and you can’t help but admire it for what it is.

The action sequences were most certainly conceived during a drunken chor-police game that Acharya played with his toys one night. You see Khan driving a bike that turns into a boat that turns into a submarine that turns into a bike. You get Bachchan Jr tailing Aamir’s bikeboatmarine while clinging on to the rope ladder of a helicopter. You get Uday Chopra wearing a Captain Jack Sparrow costume and chasing Khan on a BMW in random corridors.

And don’t you dare think there is no substance to this movie. Prepare to have your mind blown – the villain in the film is not Khan, but banks. Yes, Dhoom:3 is a social commentary on the postmodern world being afflicted by the tyranny of bankers. It’s deep stuff. In one scene, a wicked man looks at the camera grimly and tells a destitute common man, “We are bankers. We understand the world of money.”

And since this is a Dhoom movie you get a ginormous buffet of bad acting, cheesy romance, dreadful songs and plot holes so big you could drive Van Damme’s Volvo trucks through them. It’s not fair to take pot shots at Chopra because he’s the only genuine element in the film – all of his jokes are self-referential. Bachchan Jr doesn’t do much more than grimace a couple of times and walk around extremely determined. With her back perpetually arched, midriff perpetually bare and dialogue perpetually corny, Katrina comes off like a parody of an action movie heroine.

But Dhoom:3 will be remembered for being the point where Khan gleefully ignored all of the accolades he’s ever received for being a good actor. He clearly worked extremely hard on his muscles, but every dialogue he utters magically produces ham hocks around the screen. In the film he’s either

a) Too serious, and hence unintentionally funny or

b) Completely barmy, and hence unintentionally funny.

Khan is a good dramatic actor and a great comedic actor, but is not a commercial action hero. Someone needed to tell him to lighten up a bit. This is a Dhoom movie after all.

You may have predicted all of the above things, but nothing will prepare you for the barn burning ‘twist’ just before the interval. You can see it coming, but you desperately wish and pray for that to not be the case. But it does come, and you’re left groaning in defeat, wrapping your face with as many palms as you can find. It’s the kind of stuff you’d see in Hard Ticket to Hawaii and the twelve other films by the director Andy Sidaris, all twelve of which are available in a single DVD pack with your neighbourhood pirate.

Tomorrow is the day of Dhoom 3

The wait seems to be over as Aamir Khan’s Dhoom 3 release date is tomorrow. 1st week will be crucial for box office collection success of the film that cost more than Rs 100 crore.

Aamir Khan’s Dhoom 3 release date has finally arrived. The film is releasing tomorrow and there is an unprecedented enthusiasm in the industry for the movie.

To be true the wait has been continuing for months and months. The film has been the most awaited in the industry this year and is the last major release of the year. And to be true the next ten days will decide as to how the film of the best Khan of the industry will do at the box office.

A Rs 200 crore box office collection in the first week will ensure that it goes on to collect as much as Rs 150 crore in the second week and breaks all the records in records book for the box office collection. Shah Rukh Khan’s last film Chennai Express that became the highest grossing film ever before being eclipsed by Krrish 3, did so well because it did extremely well in the first few days of the launch. Its first week’s collection was more than Rs 150 crore. It was the reason that the film became a mega hit. The same was true for Hrithik Roshan starrer Krrish 3.

Even before the launch of the film there is a near unanimity for its huge success. Industry insiders and analysts are claiming that the film will be the biggest hit of the Indian film industry and will break records of Krrish 3 of Hirithik Roshan and Rakesh Roshan and Chennai Express of Shah Rukh Khan. Almost everyone is talking of the Rs 300 crore target and many believe that the sort of media traction it is getting there is no doubt that it will go much beyond Rs 300 crore. “There is a possibility of the film crossing the Rs.300 crore mark. But we will have to wait and watch”. The film has been produced by the Yash Raj Films banner and it has been directed by none other than Vijay Krishna Acharya.

The Mr perfectionist of the Hindi film industry is satisfied with the development of the film. Aamir Khan seems to be very excited about the film and says that he loved the script immensely and so became a part of it. While talking about his role in the film he says, “I am a circus artist but our kind of circus is very different. Normally we associate Indian circus with animals like hathi (elephant) and sher (lion) and in case of artists, its trapeze artists or contortionists (women who bend their body). But that is old traditional circus; the modern circus is different…If I am doing trapeze or any other stunt, I will do it staying into that character. I don’t know if people are going to understand that. But we have gone with the modern day clown. He is a character who may not make you laugh but he is someone who will entertain you”. Aamir is once again going to eclipse all his competitors.

High Expectations from Aamir-Katrina starrer Dhoom 3

Stylized action sequences, complicated stunts and a starry cast - expectations from Aamir Khan-starrer action thriller "Dhoom 3 are sky high.

Stylized action sequences, complicated stunts and a starry cast - expectations from Aamir Khan-starrer action thriller "Dhoom 3", releasing on Friday, are sky high.

With two highly successful prequels, it is no wonder that the expectations from the movie, produced under the Yash Raj Films banner and directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, are high.

Also starring Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra and Katrina Kaif, the movie's music and trailers have already proven to be an appetiser for the audiences.

Touted as one of the biggest releases this year, it comes with an expectation of towering over the box office collections of past releases of 2013. Made on an extravagant budget of approximately Rs.100 crore, the film will be releasing in about 4,000 screens in India.

"There is a possibility of the film crossing the Rs.300 crore mark. But we will have to wait and watch," said Rajesh Thadani of Multimedia Combines.

In the film, Abhishek and Uday will be seen reprising their roles of Jai Dixit and Ali from the last two "Dhoom" movies, while Aamir steps in to play a negative role as a gymnast.

Aamir essays Sahir - The Clown Thief, and Katrina plays Aaliya - The Acrobat Diva.

The film's promotions have been low key as "less is more" for the movie, Aamir had said earlier.

Promoting films on television shows seems to have become a trend, but "Dhoom 3" comes as an exception. The cast has not been seen on many TV shows promoting the film although superstar Salman Khan was seen talking about the film on his show "Bigg Boss-Saath 7".

"We believe that less is more for this film and even curiosity will be there," said Aamir, whose innovative promotions and marketing of his own productions, are always a hit.

In fact, to maintain the novelty of the film, the makers decided against having any sort of preview show including one which is usually organised for the cast and crew of the film.

For "Dhoom 3", the makers have, however, gone all out as far as launching an extensive range of merchandise is concerned.

From mobile phones and Barbie dolls to fashion accessories and notebooks - there are over 200 varieties of products and 20 partners with a combined penetration at more than 20,000 retail touch points. The price ranges from Rs 69 to Rs 9,000.

"Dhoom 3" will be Bollywood's first movie to be released in the IMAX format, a specialised film format.

Starting its journey with the first in the "Dhoom" series in 2003, the franchise has had an increasing number of fans with each film. The first movie starred John Abraham as the villain, while the second installment "Dhoom 2", which came out in 2006, was also a blockbuster. It featured Hrithik Roshan as the bad man.

Aamir's new avatar is something to be watched out for!

Dhoom 3 Movie Story Leaked

The story of Aamir-Katrina starrer has been leaked. Read on to find out…

Dhoom:3 has been creating a lot of buzz and everyone has been waiting with bated breath for the film which stars Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif, Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra to release. A lot of rumours are doing the rounds that the ticket prices of Dhoom:3 have been raised to Rs 500. Despite this, some of you would still want to catch the film, while there will be some who would think that Rs 500 is a little too much for Dhoom:3.

So this is the story for the people who belong to the latter group. Fair warning. Peeps who wish to watch Dhoom:3 in the theatres don’t read ahead. If you still wish to, then don’t blame us.

The story of Dhoom:3 has apparently been leaked. Yes, you heard it right! An entertainment website has revealed the plot of the film, which goes something like this – the film begins with Sahir assisting his father, played by Jackie Shroff. Sahir learns all the tricks from his father. The father (Jackie Shroff) is murdered, or either killed, due to somebody or some incident at the circus. Sahir promises to take revenge. Same old stuff, isn’t it? The film then takes a leap. The adult Sahir is played by Aamir Khan. He is working in the same circus his father used to work, and has beautiful gymnast Aaliya (Katrina Kaif) for company. Sahir is out to rob all the money that’s made by the owners of the circus, who according to him are possibly involved in his father’s death or murder. He is successful in two attempts. Now, enters ACP Jai Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan), along with Ali (Uday Chopra). Their task is to nab the master robber!

They know the master robber is Sahir, but do not have any proof. Thus, a trap is laid out to catch him red handed. Now, begins the cat and mouse game. The prime target is to catch Sahir in action. Will Sahir be caught in the end (like John Abraham in Dhoom), or would be given a chance to start a new life (like Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2); what would happen in end? That’s for you to find out when the film releases.

Well that’s a good thing that the website has not revealed the entire plot. So if you wish to find out that what happens in the end, go to the theatres.

Aditya Chopra apologizes to Abhishek Bachchan

With promotion of the latest Yash Raj action adventure flick, ‘Dhoom 3’ in full swing, it has been noticed that Abhishek Bachchan has not been given the treatment he deserved as a consistent star of the film series. Although seen in both the prequels and an integral part of the third film of the series, he was given a miss at a few promotional events whereas Aamir Khan was focused on in entirety. We heard from a source that at the First Look launch of the film ‘Dhoom 3’, it was Aamir Khan who stole the show with his interaction while Abhishek was reduced to a quiet presence in the background.  It was noticed at a few other promotional events too where Abhishek was conspicuously missing, especially at the Music launch of the film where Aamir along with co-star Katrina Kaif were present. It was later revealed that Abhishek had no idea about the event. It is no secret that Aamir loves taking centre stage and being in control at everything he does. But it was surprising to note the marketing team of ‘Dhoom 3’ skipping such a valuable detail.

Being a gentleman, Abhishek Bachchan decided to bite the bullet.  Instead of bringing the injustice to the forefront, he stayed calm and let it pass. Another source said that although he was not comfortable with the way Aamir Khan was gathering attention at his expense, Abhishek wanted to keep quiet about it. It was then that the Yash Raj Production Team realized their mistake and Aditya Chopra was seen visiting Abhishek Bachchan to apologize and make amends for the injustice meted out to him by the team.

Abhishek Bachchan had reportedly sustained injury during workout in December. Nevertheless, he appeared for the promotional launch of the movie with his torn elbow and did not make a fuss about it. After such dedication towards his work and responsibility, the kind of treatment he has received is uncalled for. And one cannot forget that Abhishek Bachchan has had a long standing relationship with the Yash Raj Banner and has several Yash Raj hits to his name.

Realizing their oversight, Aditya Chopra with team in tow visited Abhishek Bachchan to apologize and make amends. We do not know what words passed between them. But all seems forgiven and back on track. Well, it is never too late to say sorry, what say, Aditya Chopra?

‘The Bikes of Dhoom 3’, the new video from YRF, takes us behind the scenes of some stunts and gives us a lowdown on the bikes. The bike that Aamir Khan’s character Sahir rides in the film is a BMW K1 300R. It is a 1293 CC bike with a 173 horse power engine.

Makers of Dhoom:3 may hike the ticket prices of their much-awaited action thriller?

Going by the latest khabar, it seems that Ticket prices of Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer Dhoom:3 to be hiked

Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer Dhoom:3 which will hit the screens on December 20  seems to be feeling the heat as most films have been easily minting big moolah at the box office recently. First Shahrukh Khan-Deepika Padukone starrer Chennai Express broke all the records and then Hrithik Roshan’s superhero film Krrish 3 took over in no time. With Dhoom:3 being the next big film, the makers want to make sure they don’t lag behind in the number game. Hence to make sure Aamir-Katrina’s film further raises the bar of the box office collection, we hear the makers of the film and distributors are considering hiking the ticket prices.

If reports are to believed then Dhoom:3 ticket may cost the audience Rs 500 at multiplexes. That’s not all! Since YRF’s Dhoom:3 is the first Hindi film to be released in the much talked about IMAX format, the ticket prices for the same are expected to be more expensive.

“As of now there has been no decision taken in terms of hiking the ticket prices for ‘Dhoom:3‘, however there are chances that the rates may be hiked for the release that coincides with the holiday season of Christmas,” a source from leading multiplex chain said.

While we agree that the audience has been waiting eagerly for Aamir and Kat’s film but with ticket prices as high as Rs 500, we are sure this will dig a bigger hole into the audiences pocket. There is a possibility the plan may backfire, right Bollywoodlifers?

Film Actor Abhishek Bachchan wants Aamir Khan to play role of good guy in Dhoom 4

For Abhishek, it was an honour to work with Aamir Khan, who plays a villain in "Dhoom 3". He hopes to work with Aamir again and says he could play the "good guy".

Jai (Abhishek Bachchan) and Ali (Uday Chopra) are Coming back and this time with khan! 'Dhoom' is 'Dhoom' and it's the third time round. What an honour for any actor to get the opportunity to work with Aamir. You just get to learn so much by just observing him," he said.

Abhishek only has a string of praises for Aamir.

Abhishek said "Aamir is so helpful and so caring and giving as an actor that I am honoured to have worked with him. Let's see, we'll try and convince him to come back in 'Dhoom 4' as a good guy".

"We have had our mainstream heroes doing villain roles for very long. I did it in 'Yuva' in 2004, my dad did it in 'Parwana' (1971). I think heroes have always done it and it's got to do with the character, it's not about being a good guy or a bad guy," "Superstar Shah Rukh Khan played negative roles in movies "Darr" (1993), "Baazigar" (1993), "Anjaam" (1994) and the recent "Don" franchise abhishek said.
