I know you want to ask me this, why Shahrukh should say thank you to Shiv sena. Because Shahrukh’s movie my name is khan just achieved HIT status in India with a total business of Rs. 73 crores, thanks to shiv sena’s protest.
If Shiv sena had not protested the release of my name is khan (that bring huge publicity for the movie), the movie would never have got HIT status and would have been an average movie in India. And box office collections could have been lower by 15-20 crores.
My name is khan did fantastic business in week one just because of the controversy created by Shiv sena. But after that collections dropped by 70% every weak.
Many people and our media are comparing my name is khan with Three idiots. But if you see difference between the box office collections of both the films you will find that you just can’t compare these two films.
The first week collections of Three idiots (79 crores) are higher than the total collections of MNIK (73 crores).
Here is a table containing collections of Bollywood’s major hit films in recent times.
