According to reports ‘My Name Is Khan’ has seen a considerable drop in ticket sales in it’s 2nd week which was about a 65% to 70% less than in the opening week.
The film ‘3 Idiots’ managed to keep going strong for a long time. There was a very big hype created due to the Shahrukh Khan remark on the inclusion of the Pakistani Players in the IPL and a corresponding release of SRK’S film ‘My Name Is Khan’ created a frenzy all over due to which the opening sale of tickets was mind blowing for the film and thus there were reports that it would beat the Aamir Khan starer ‘3 Idiots’ in no time.
But just into its second week and the film ‘MNIK’ has slumped down in sales proving that the success of Aamir over SRK in 2010 is also established. The whole saga of competition has been carried forward from 2009 when Shahrukh’s film ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ had released and was on top of the charts but as Aamir’s film ‘Ghajini’ released all box office records were broken and it became the supreme hit of the year leaving SRK’S film far behind.
Now with recent reports on the Aamir Khan film running far ahead of the Shahrukh Khan film it is once again making Aamir the Mr. Perfectionist of bollywood. The collections of ‘MNIK’ in the 2nd week are Rs 150 crores in contrast to the collections ofthe film ‘3 Idiots’ which was approximately Rs 240 crores in a ten day period.
Having said all about the films, the fact still remains that SRK has ruled the hearts of millions of his fans the world over and this may be a temporary phase in the actor’s life and sunnier days will surely come soon. As for Mr. perfectionist AamirKhan it will suffice to say that he has surely proved that he has what it takes to be a successful star and on top of the slot amongst the best of the best. So, till the next level of competition arises let the winner be in blissful planet!
