Re: [bigb] opening numbers

Agreed with Shiladitya and Viral. We should have better marketing and 1st week initial must be above 20-25 crores. I remember all of us have been talking about marketing!! Well, let's wait and see.

Saw both ready and DD, did not like both. DD part I was much much better. Other than Golmaal, all sequels are bad.

Regarding good initial, good promotion is must. They released music 10 days before release, that is also not available everywhere, this is not proper marketing. However, the film will become super hit based on its merit and will earn say 15-20 crores in 1st week, but if the marketing would have been better then it could have earn 30 crores in 1st week.

So DD opened to a 25 crore weekend. Second highest after Ready in 2011.

That makes it two big movies in a month.

Now we have BHTB, DB and Xformers.

IMHO, 25 crore opening is a must for BHTB. No 2 ways about it.
