I just brought back the discussion to see how people perceived the movie at the time and to certain extend how fans behaved in HUB.
I dont know what SKV remembers.. CM did have a big opening.. :)Quote:

But once MX released, our doubts became 'clear' about MX but for 1st 4 days, even my rajni fan friends were very much in doubt. They were saying "Kathai nallaa dhaan irukku......" after a week it was clear it became a BB! (During 2005 to 2008 i was with a superb gang of friends full of rajini fans! only 1 or 2 were kamal fans. we use to start fights whenever we felt bored! atleast some 40, 50 times we wud hav had that fight!!! And our association started with CM and ended with Dasa! then the gang slowly slipt :( )

சரிப்பா. விஜய்யின் BO Power-ஐ கொஞ்சம் சொல்லப்பா...Quote:

Fans of superstars are having a Tamil New Year feast in theatres across Tamilnadu. The shows started in the wee hours of the day and all the three biggies Chandramukhi, Mumbai Xpress and Sachin have taken a 100 to 120 percent opening!
All the releases carry average reports, nothing extraordinary. By Tuesday morning a clear picture will emerge.
some user comments
--------------------------
I will tell U my experince. I had gone to Albert theatre yesterday (sunday) morning & tickets for Sachine were available for noon & night shows.
When i wnet to book tickets in satyam on saturday morning for sunday, I was told that both CM & MX were running full.
I don't know whether theses films are running full only on weekends or whether they are stage managed.
One thing is clear. Sachine is surely a flop while the other two seems to be having an average run.

Yesterday I had been to Abirami Mega Mall in the afternoon around 3 P.M... and the evening shows for both CM and MX is available... This was a saturday.... Imagine how it will be in weekdays.... I was there till 8 p.m but the evening shows were full by 6:00 p.m... This shows in 2 to 3 weeks these movies will be shifted to smaller theatres....
In Sangam... they have announced that if you purchase one movie ticket of Sachin... you will get one ticket free.... The movie is running empty on weekends.....

Indiafm.com : Mumbai express collects 47.8 lacs
also look at the box office in indiafm.... mumbai express sits very prettily in the second slot just after lucky
http://indiafm.com/boxoffice/top5.shtml
Mumbai express seems to have become an average hit in hindi... that is great news as all hindi movies r flopping in a row,.... there is a southern superstar who makes a movie in hindi without much fanfare and hype ( there were no sites talking abt mumbai express) and made it into a profitable venture...
very less marketing and patronage,... but it is kamalhassans magic and he has hit the bulls eye...
