Jurassic World - Fallen Kingdom has had a brilliant Saturday at the box office bringing in Rs 11.50 crore. The film has now grossed Rs 24 crore in its first three days. Its box office run may not last too long because with the release of Salman Khan-starrer Race 3. The multi-star film that took the Internet by storm with trailers and song releases is expected to break box office records set in 2018 till date. The much-talked about Rajinikanth’s Kaala failed to woo movie buffs pan India barring southern states. According to Boxofficeindia, the film raked in Rs 50 crore across India in three days. Though the collections may display a strong run, it is too low for the prices paid by distributors. Veere Di Wedding showed growth of around 55 percent on its second Saturday, the normal trend for a successful film. The film has now grossed Rs 7 crore in its second weekend taking the collections to almost Rs 59.75 crore. All eyes are now Salman Khan and Race 3 to bring in more cheer and money to Bollywood box office.<doc-sep>The business of big Bollywood releases is mostly restricted to the first three days of their release. It stretches for another four days if the content gets the audience talking. It doesn’t happen regularly though. But the promoters of Salman Khan’s Race 3 are determined to beat the existing system. The film looks like a commercial success even before its release. Reports say that the satellite and digital rights of the film are sold for a whopping Rs 130 crore. This is a price unheard of for any Indian film; even Salman’s previous film Tiger Zinda Hai could only fetch Rs Rs 65 crore. Film trade analyst Atul Mohan puts everything in perspective. He says, “At the end of the day, it’s the content that does the talking, but one thing is for sure that Race 3 is going to get a big opening. I am expecting a Rs 100 crore plus figure in first three days. The opening day collection should be in the range of Rs 30-35 crore. After that, it will be all about content. Tiger Zinda Hai sustained the momentum even after the first weekend. Tubelight’s graph drastically came down after three days.” Watch: Business prediction for Race 3 He explains how the screen count of a film impacts its business, “Race 3 is going to be one of the widest releases Bollywood has ever seen. The makers are looking at approximately 4200 screens in India, may be more than that.” Online booking website BookMyShow also reported that advance bookings of the Salman Khan-starrer are soaring. While the advance sales opened on Sunday in a very limited manner in a few theatres, the sales really picked up on Tuesday. The massive success of Aamir Khan’s Dangal and a couple of other films has given the producers the confidence to reach out to new markets. Even a relatively smaller success would contribute significantly to the final tally of a film. Mohan adds, “Bollywood films are getting far more number of screens in the USA and the UK. A few years back, we were allotted 150 odd screens in the USA and 50-75 screens in Britain. It’s almost double now.” He continues, “Some new markets have also opened up. Last few films of Salman Khan films like Tiger Zinda Hai and Tubelight opened really well. He has become one of the darlings of the overseas markets. Hindi movies are looking beyond the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand. New areas like Malaysia, Singapore and European countries like Germany and Norway are fetching really good money now.” In a nutshell, the strategy to publicise a Salman Khan film beyond the usual limits is working just fine for the promoters. Traditionally, a Salman film has worked during major festive seasons. Films such as Bodyguard, Ek The Tiger, Kick, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Sultan worked beyond imagination on and around Eid. Last year’s Tubelight is the only exception in this regard, but the high publicity cost was believed to be the major reason behind its poor performance at the ticket window. Despite this, the team of Race 3 decided to go all out on promotion. However, they did a smart thing by not stretching it beyond one month. The trailer of the film released on May 15, a month before the film’s release. And then they cracked the biggest satellite and digital deal in the history of Bollywood. They always knew what they were getting into. Anil Sharma, who directed Salman in Veer (2010), says such emphasis of promoting a superstar’s film was always there. He says, “There is always a buzz around superstars’ films. It happens with the stars in all fields. There are three things that make an actor a superstar – good films, attitude and screen presence -- Salman has all three.” Sharma says the superstars have traditionally driven the business. He adds, “It was always like that. When Amitabh Bachchan was the superstar, things revolved around him. The same was the case with Dharmendra. Be it Rajesh Khanna or Shah Rukh Khan, the credit always went to the stars. This is, in fact, why they become stars.” In the current scenario, all Race 3 has to do is to hold its ground for the first three days to become a hugely profitable venture. With no big release till Ranbir Kapoor’s Sanju on June 29, Race 3 is likely to enjoy a free run. Just imagine what it can achieve if there is a positive word of mouth around it! Directed by Remo D’Souza, Race 3 also features Bobby Deol, Jacqueline Fernandez, Anil Kapoor, Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem in important roles. It will hit the screens on June 15, 2018.

Vote here Salman Khan’s biggest offering of the year Race 3 is about to release in just a couple of days. Directed by choreographer-turned-director Remo D’Souza, Race 3 is Salman Khan’s Eid offering this year. It’s a crime-thriller film based on the deceit and betrayal that engulfs two brothers. Salman is playing Sikander while Bobby Deol is supposedly playing his evil stepbrother Yash. Jacqueline Fernandez and Anil Kapoor are the only actors who are retained in this third instalment of Race. Earlier, Saif Ali Khan played the male protagonist in Abbas-Mustan’s Race. Following the pattern, Salman Khan’s film is releasing on Eid-al-Fitr on June 15, making it Dabanng Khan’s Eid offering this year. Now, the question arises whether this high-octane drama will smash the box office records of Salman Khan’s previous Eid releases. Last year, Salman ushered in Eid festivities with Kabir Khan-directorial Tubelight. The film opened to lukewarm response and fair box office numbers. It raked in Rs 20.75 crores on its opening day. Later in 2017, Salman Khan reprised his role as Tiger in Ali Abbas Zafar’s Tiger Zinda Hai. It minted Rs 34 crore on its opening day becoming one of the highest grossing films of Salman Khan. In 2016, Salman Khan welcomed Eid with Anushka Sharma-starrer sports drama Sultan. Surprisingly, Sultan raked in Rs 36 crore on its opening day, becoming Salman’s highest opening Eid release till date. His highest opening film is Suraj Barjatya’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo with Rs 40 crore as opening collection.f Cast your vote here: Will Salman Khan’s Race 3 break his previous Eid records? Citing the fact that Salman Khan’s Race 3 is opening during Eid festivities with no other major film in competition, chances are high that this action film might break the records of becoming the highest grossing Eid release of the actor. According to the trade analysts and the status quo of pre-bookings on booking portals like Bookmyshow and Paytm, Race 3 is expected to earn up to Rs 40 crore at the box office in India. Salman Khan and his movies’ connection with Eid came into existence from 2009, when his film Wanted released during the festivity. The film helped the Bollywood hunk resurrect when his previous ventures in Bollywood were a complete failure. Ever since then, Salman Khan was unstoppable when it comes to box office numbers. With Ek Tha Tiger, Kick and Bajrangi Bhaijaan, the Dabanng Khan established himself as the unbridled king of box office in Bollywood. Kabir Khan’s Tiger Zinda Hai continues to enjoy the highest grossing Salman Khan film status till date. Now we’ll have to wait for Friday to see whether Race 3 manages to shatter the records of Salman’s own films. Will Salman Khan’s Race 3 break the records this Eid?
