Everyone is asking for bahubali added into Tamil section.

I have a suggestion... Big movies earn big amounts in every language. Why don't you add exact collection of movie in that language and overall collections in Indian section. For example....

Bahubali 2

No1. 517cr

In Telgu section

No1. 283cr

:{{ping|Anurag Anand}} Firstly, we don't typically track income for dubbed films. Baahubali is unique in that it was shot simultaneously in two languages. Secondly, there is already a glaring lack of reliable and consistent financial data for Indian films, and for some films it's a [[wikt:crapshoot|crapshoot]] whether we get data at all, let alone ''reliable'' data from sources that aren't just some random guy in an internet cafe claiming to be a film industry analyst. I just don't see that happening, and given how there is so much friction between Indian ethnic identities, I can't see how it makes sense to point out in the incomplete list of Bengali top ten films that, "yeah, a Baahubali dub made more than your highest-grossing home-made film", or that once again with its sheer number of speakers, a Hindi film dub once again dominated the market.

There is slight rearrangement to be made in the list of highest grossing films in TELUGU.

It's indeed surprising to see that [[Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava]](2018) and [[Mahanati]](2018) are not even in the list. I think it's high time this section has to be updated

Rangasthalam(currently 4th) should be swapped with Bharat Ane Nenu(3rd) and Attarintiki Daredi should be swapped with Magadheera

It is a prediction based on facts (seeing it is a reputable source accepted by Wikipedia). And here you are implying that indiatoday fabricates stories. You got to take it easy with such comments. I'm trying to keep this table updated because i like looking at this list. I will get back when i find an updated number for this film.

:You appear to be missing the point: We do not update financial figures until it can be demonstrated that the financial figures were achieved. It is common for media outlets to speculate about a film's potential earning power long before a film is released, or along the way, but we'd be foolish to proclaim a film as one of the highest-grossing Indian films if the film hadn't crossed the mark yet.

:{{ping|Mdiggin}} You mean the updated figure that was [https://www.indiatoday.in/movies/regional-cinema/story/petta-box-office-collection-day-18-rajinikanth-film-is-a-massive-hit-1440146-2019-01-27 tweeted by some random cricket and tennis fan on Twitter], instead of a legitimate financial analyst? I think not. The purpose of a secondary source is to get a journalist to check out and vet information they receive. When all they're doing is ''obviously'' parroting a garbage source and even presenting the content as though it were a rumour ("It is said..."), there can be no assumption that they've done any actual fact-checking here, and it's yet another example of poor journalism from India's high-pressure "gotta report a higher box office figure" system. [[WP:NODEADLINE|Wikipedia has no deadline]]. We're under no pressure to insanely report every change to box office figures that come out. If it takes a month to get a reliable final box office total for the film, we'll wait. [[User:Cyphoidbomb|Cyphoidbomb]] ([[User talk:Cyphoidbomb|talk]]) 17:00, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Update Highest-grossing opening weekends list

The worldwide estimated collection of Petta is Rs 149 crore by the end of its first week.

source - https://www.ibtimes.co.in/petta-box-office-collection-1st-week-here-how-much-rajinikanth-grossed-worldwide-8-days-790266 [[User:Prasanna0572|Prasanna0572]] ([[User talk:Prasanna0572|talk]]) 10:45, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

:[[File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg|20px|link=|alt=]] '''Not done:'''<!-- Template:EEp --> {{ping|Prasanna0572}} That list is a jumble of confusing content and I have flagged it for cleanup. It's absurd that we have Baahubali 2's five-day gross figure that we're calling a "weekend", contrasted with 2.0's seven-day gross, which we're calling a "weekend", and now you want us to consider an eight-day gross figure and call that a "weekend". We need to properly define what a weekend is (I always thought it was Friday, Saturday and Sunday) and adjust the list accordingly.

== Highest-grossing opening weekends ==

The Highest-grossing opening weekends table is a bit of a mess and I've [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_highest-grossing_Indian_films&diff=880639928&oldid=880591708 flagged it for cleanup accordingly]. A film weekend is typically Friday, Saturday and Sunday. You know, like a normal weekend? It becomes problematic when a film releases mid-week. How do we calculate what its "weekend" was? Do we use the literal first weekend, i.e. Friday, Saturday and Sunday figures? Perhaps. If that specific data is available. But what is ''not'' logical, is to use four, five, six and seven-day figures as we've done for Baahubali: The Beginning, Baahubali 2, Sarkar, and 2.0 respectively. If the three day weekend data isn't published in a consistent way, I don't know what value this table is ''ever'' going to have. Thoughts?

:I have made up some changes [[User:Wiki KuthiVaiyans|Wiki KuthiVaiyans]] ([[User talk:Wiki KuthiVaiyans|talk]]) 16:40, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

::{{ping|Wiki KuthiVaiyans}} Though I know you meant well, I don't see how [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_highest-grossing_Indian_films&diff=880811322&oldid=880809617 these changes] resolve the issue. Wikipedia is acting as an arbiter of films ranked highest for opening weekend, yet we have no consistency as to what a "weekend" means. A weekend surely doesn't mean five days. A weekend surely doesn't mean four days. And how do we decide that Bajrangi Bhaijaan is ranked #12 of all opening weekends when it opened on a Thursday and grossed 2 crore more than Prem Ratan Dhan Payo. This list is problematic. So until it is fixed, the cleanup template should remain. Regards, [[User:Cyphoidbomb|Cyphoidbomb]] ([[User talk:Cyphoidbomb|talk]]) 04:25, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Cyphoidbomb}} Oh okay a weekend is typically Friday, Saturday and Sunday and if a film released before that, we can only mention it that it released before friday i think and that baahubali 2 figure is not 5 days, the source actually says its 3 days worldwide 526 crores which is based on producers's tweet ("3 days 500 crores and still counting") and a shitty tracker's tweet ( who's tweets are been reported by most of the sources linked here) and for 2.0 i changed it to 4 days figures. [[User:Wiki KuthiVaiyans|Wiki KuthiVaiyans]] ([[User talk:Wiki KuthiVaiyans|talk]]) 06:43, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

::::{{ping|Wiki KuthiVaiyans}} If a weekend is a three-day opening that runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday, then those are the only figures that belong in the table. Why would we include a film that opened on a Wednesday? That's not a weekend. If a film opens days earlier than another film, it has more days to make money. And such a film simply doesn't compare properly to a film that does the traditional Friday release. In order for something to be compared properly to another thing, all the variables need to be the same. Ex: Sarkar is ranked #8 with a ''six'' day total. That makes it look like it pulled in more cash than ''Dangal'', ''Dhoom 3'' and ''Tiger Zinda Hai'', when that may be absolute rubbish. Sarkar didn't have a standard weekend opening, so it simply can't be compared 1:1 to the films that did. That's a critical flaw in the scope of the table. [[User:Cyphoidbomb|Cyphoidbomb]] ([[User talk:Cyphoidbomb|talk]]) 15:28, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

::::{{ping|Cyphoidbomb}} Yeah that's why i said, we can only mention or highlight that this film didn't have typical weekend release and we can't even use just 3 days figures of those films since they make most of the money in weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), that's why there is even a table here and we can't also use just weekend gross (3 days) of those films, If someone wants to know the films which had a Friday release, they can sort the table with a click.
