Big Films Released On 11th AUG Including A SRK Clash

Today (11th August) may not have seen the huge success but has seen big cast films released since 1995.


Toilet Ek Prem Katha released in 2017 was the biggest HIT on this day with Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna released in 2006 being the biggest film in terms of budget and cast.


Dhadkan was  another big film which did not quite do the business in 2000 it could have due to lacklustre opening in many parts of the country but the film manages to pick up a decent television occasionally today meaning it probably is the one which has longevity but this could be down to the blockbuster music.


The list of big August 11th releases over the last 25 years are as follows with their adjusted NETT numbers (2017 value) and verdict.

1. Toilet Ek Prem Katha (2017) - 1,32,07,00,000 (SUPER HIT)


2. Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna (2006)- 1,06,21,00,000 (SEMI HIT)


3. Dhadkan (2000) - 99,14,00,000 (AVERAGE)


4. Hum Dono (1995) - 68,06,00,000 (AVERAGE)


5. Deewane (2000) - 48,49,00,000 (FLOP)


6. Guddu (1995) - 31,21,00,000 (Flop)


7. Oh Darling Yeh Hai India (1995) - 17,86,00,000 (Disaster)


Another point on this day is that it is one of the very few times that Shahrukh Khan actually lost a clash. Shahrukh Khan has an unbeatable record in clashes as he tends to come out on top most of the time but on 11th August he had two films Guddu and Oh Darling Yeh Hai India and they both defeated by the Rishi Kapoor / Nana Patekar starrer Hum Dono which eventually did fair business due to Mumbai circuit. The opening day figures of this clash were as follows and it was a comfortable win for Hum Dono with 46 lakhs. But two Shahrukh Khan films clashed with each other so the opening business was also divided. Combined opening for both films was 47 lakhs.

Hum Dono - 46,00,000

Guddu - 25,00,000

Oh Darling Yeh Hai india - 22,00,000


Note - Both the Shahrukh Khan films were films which were taken on before he became a major star with Baazigar and Darr.
