Tubelight 8th day collection: The movie was expected to remain steady in the second week but it continues to struggle.

Who would have thought that the most awaited movie of the year will find it difficult to cross attract the audience in the second week? Well, this is what happening right now. Salman Khan’s Tubelight is running almost empty theatres in most parts of the country. The movie has been struggling from the very first day. After an average opening week with the collection of 106.86 crores, the movie was expected to remain steady as it has no competition at the box office. But that didn’t happen. In fact, it witnessed a big drop in collections on its second Friday.

As per early estimates, Tubelight collected around 3 crores on its second Friday. After 8 days, the total collection of the movie stands at 109.86 crores. With the collection of 109.86 crores, it is now the fifth highest grosser of 2017 after Bahubali 2, Raees, Jolly LLB 2 and Badrinath Ki Dulhania.

Tubelight 8th day collection: Way Ahead

The current trend suggests that Tubelight will wrap up its box office journey this week itself. Tubelight may witness some jump on Saturday and Sunday but after that, it will be all over it. After 8 days, the worldwide collection of the movie stands at 190 crores. It will cross 200 crores mark by the end of the second weekend but after that, it will be all curtains.

We are expecting the lifetime collection of Tubelight to be in the range of 120 to 125 crores. Tubelight will be Salman Khan’s lowest grossers after Jai Ho (111 crores) released in January 2014. Salman Khan’s last four movies have crossed 200 crores at the domestic box office.

Tubelight is a flop as the distributors have incurred huge losses. Made on a budget of 100 crores excluding Salman Khan’s fee, Tubelight should earn 150 crores to be called a hit at the box office. The movie was sold to NH Studioz for whopping 132 crores.

Tubelight 6th Day Collection: Salman Khan’s Tubelight crosses 100 Crore mark on the 6th day of its release, his 11th consecutive 100 crore movie.

Salman Khan’s latest release Tubelight has finally entered the elite 100 Crore club of Bollywood. Tubelight is Salman Khan’s 11th consecutive 100 Crore grosser. His first 100 Crore grosser was Dabangg released on Eid 2010. Since Dabangg, every Salman Khan movie has earned more than 100 crores at the domestic box office. Salman Khan is the king of the domestic box office with eleven 100 Crore movies. He has the most number of 100 Crore movies followed by Akshay Kumar (7) and Shah Rukh Khan (7).

Tubelight 6th day collection and way ahead
Released on 23 June 2017, the movie hasn’t been able to really pick up after an average opening day. The movie earned 21.15 crores on its opening day. It failed to witness any growth over the opening weekend. Tubelight earned 64.77 crores in the first weekend. It is the second highest opening weekend grosser of 2017 after Bahubali 2.

The movie was expected to show huge growth on Eid day (Monday) but that didn’t happen. Tubelight earned 19.09 crores on Monday and since then it is witnessing huge drop on daily basis. The movie earned 12 crores on Tuesday. On its 6th day, the movie dropped further and managed to earn only 7 crores.

With the collection of 7 crores on its 6th day, the total collection of Tubelight stands at 102.86 crores. Today the movie will complete the first week. The box office fate of the movie depends on how will it perform in the second weekend. In order to cross 150 crores mark, the movie needs to earn at least 20 crores in the second week.

Tubelight First Weekend Collection: Salman Khan’s Tubelight recorded the second highest opening weekend collection of 2017 after Bahubali 2.

Salman Khan’s Tubelight was one of the most awaited movies of 2017. Moviegoers were eagerly waiting for it as Salman Khan’s film on Eid has become a habit for them. Considering Salman Khan’s star power and recent box office record, the expectations were huge from the movie. However, the movie has failed to live up to expectations. It falls short of expectations both on ticket and content window. It has been written down by critics. The first weekend collection of the movie is not up to the mark.

Tubelight first weekend box office collection: day-wise report
With the collection of 21.15 crores, Tubelight recorded the highest opening of 2017 by a Bollywood film. The opening day collection was marginally higher than Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees which earned 20.42 crores.

On Saturday, the movie remained flat and managed to earn only  21.17 crores. On the last day of the first weekend, Tubelight witnessed decent growth due to holiday. As per official numbers shared by Taran Adarsh, Tubelight earned 22.45 crores on its third day. Have a look at the first weekend box office report of Tubelight:

First Day: 21.15 crores (Second highest opening day of 2017)
Second Day: 21.17 crores
Third Day: 22.45 crores 
First weekend: 64.77 crores 

Tubelight first weekend collection: 2nd highest of 2017
Despite poor reviews and bashing by media, Tubelight has recorded the second highest opening weekend of 2017 after Bahubali 2. The movie is running on Salman Khan’s star power and loyal fan following which he has gained in last 10 years.

The story of Tubelight is similar to Shah Rukh Khan’s FAN. FAN was also released with huge buzz but failed terribly at box office. It received poor reviews and managed to earn just 85 crores in its lifetime. However, Tubelight has somehow managed to hold despite negative reviews and publicity.

Talking about Tubelight, the first weekend collection of the movie stands at respectable 64.77 crores. It has beaten the first weekend numbers of biggies like Raees, Kaabil, Jolly LLB 2 and Badrinath Ki Dulhania. Have a look at highest opening weekend grosser of 2017:

Tubelight box office collection: way ahead
Though the movie has underperformed till now, it still has a chance to post a respectable lifetime total. The box office fate of Tubelight depends on how it performs on Monday and Tuesday. The movie should earn around crores on Monday and Tuesday to post a decent lifetime total. Let’s hope for the best.

The trade pandits from the industry are highly confident that Tubelight will be a huge hit at the box office. Most of them are expecting it to cross 300 crore mark. Some of them are even betting it to become the highest grossing movie of Bollywood. Here are few reasons which suggest that Tubelight is a runaway hit:

1. The deadly combo of Salman Khan and Kabir Khan. They have earlier delivered two blockbuster movies, Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
2. Salman Khan’s impeccable track record on Eid. Salman Khan’s movie on Eid is a super hit before release. All Salman Khan movies released on Eid in last 10 years have been blockbusters at the box office.

Tubelight box office collection prediction: first day, weekend, week and lifetime prediction

First day collection prediction: Since the movie is releasing on normal Friday and that too during Ramadan period, the opening will be in the range of 27 to 30 crores. The numbers may go higher since the movie is driving on Salman Khan’s shoulders.

First weekend collection prediction: With no holidays, it will be a normal pre-Eid weekend for Tubelight. It accepted by the audience, Tubelight should cross 95 crores in the first weekend. There is a possibility of crossing 100 crore mark as it will be the last week of the summer vacations.

First week collection prediction: It will be an Eid holiday on Tuesday and after that, there will be no stopping Tubelight. The movie has a potential to cross 40 crores mark on Tuesday and Wednesday. With mixed to good word of mouth, Tubelight should cross 200 crores mark in the first week itself.

Lifetime box office collection prediction: 200 crores looks like a cakewalk for Tubelight even with a negative WOM. If accepted by the audience then the sky is the limit for this Salman and Kabir Khan movie. Have a look at the lifetime prediction based on the word of mouth of the audience.

Negative WOM: Lifetime collection will be 200 to 220 crores.

Unanimously positive WOM: Lifetime collection will be greater than 300 crores.

The budget of Tubelight including the promotion and advertising cost is estimated to be around 100 crores. If we include Salman Khan’s fee which is estimated to be around 60 crores then the total budget of the movie will be around 160 crores.

Tubelight Box Office Economics

Tubelight is already a profitable venture for the makers as it has recovered around 250+ crores before release. The theatrical rights of the movie have been sold to NH Studioz for the record price of 132 crores. The music and overseas rights have also been sold for the record price. Let’s have a look at economics:

• Satellite Rights: 55 to 60 crores (Salman Khan’s fee)
• Music rights: 20 crores
• All India Distribution Rights: 132 crores (NH Studioz)
• Overseas Distribution Rights: 38 crores (YRF and others)
• Digital and other rights: 30 crores (approx.)
• Total recovery before release: 280 crores

Tubelight Box Office Analysis

Tubelight is not a typical Salman Khan film. It is not a kind of film which can set the box office on fire from the word go. Tubelight looks like a film with emotional quotient. If accepted, this kind of film can make it huge in a long run. We can compare Tubelight with Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Aamir Khan films like Dangal and PK.

The buzz of the movie has reached its peak before release. Considering that 23 June 2017 is a normal day, a 25 crore opening will be considered a good start for the film. The movie is expected to grow big after the first weekend.
