Kaththi total Box office collection As per Times of India, it is 126 Crores and as per Indian Movie Stats it is 135 crores but absolutely more than Veeram because there is official declaration over Kaththi entry in 100 Crore Club while Veeram released alongside Jilla caused loss in terms of revenue to both side by declaring both film as average hits, so how could you mention it collected 130 crores which is totally fake. As per Popular Magazine and Newspapers, Kaththi is Highest Grossing Tamil film of year 2014 with profits after Lingaa and no where Veeram is mentioned. 103.228.40.200 (talk) 16:07, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Vijay´s Theri is earning worldwide 200 crore. https://twitter.com/sandhumerry/status/726774237860601856

Why he shouldn´t he be a reliable source ?

He is a Member of UK Censor Board!!!!!!! That means, before the release of a Film, he is one of the luckiest guy, to watch it first!!!!!! He is also a film Distributor, he should know what he write/talk.

For Example:

He has written on it´s release date. That Vijay starrer Theri grossed 28 crore in India alone!!!! https://twitter.com/sandhumerry/status/720649708251836417

Other leading newspaper, have postet the same fact, few days later!!!

http://andhraboxoffice.com/info.aspx?id=1907&cid=6&fid=3373

All by All, why he shouldn´t be a reliable source? He is one of the first, who get´s the right information

In the categorie of Telugu Films:

How earned Sarainodu 110 crore ? You have this link in References. In this link is said, that Sarainodu has earned 70 crore till date. How is 110 crore then possible ? http://www.ibtimes.co.in/sarainodu-sarrainodu-7-day-box-office-collection-allu-arjun-starrer-crosses-rs-70-crore-mark-676806

Till the date of yesterday, Sarainodu has grossed 83,61 crore, not 110 crore!

Partly done: We don't typically use Twitter posts as references, especially not Twitter accounts that are not confirmed. See WP:UGC. Suitable references typically include mainstream publications with established reputations for fact-checking. As for Sarainodu, this guy made the change and clearly added the wrong value. I don't know if he added the wrong value on purpose, or if it was an honest mistake, but I've changed the value back to 72 crore. I'm not making the change to 83.61 crore because I'm not comfortable with AndhraBoxoffice.com as a reliable source. It looks like a run-of-the-mill blog with no clear editorial oversight.

 Not done IMDB and iluvcinema are not reliable sources and the ibtimes article you cite, which is a reliable source, states 124 crore - so it does not make the top 10.

In this edit I reverted changes made by Bhuvannalla. I'm not clear on how andhraboxoffice.com qualifies as a reliable source, as it strikes me as yet another faceless blog run by anonymous people. How exactly does it satisfy WP:UGC? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 14:11, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Andhraboxoffice.com can be considered as an authentic website for Telugu movies. Most of the reliable sources such as IBTimes, TimesOfIndia, IndianExpress take reference from Andhraboxoffice.com. It gathers information from film producers and distributors. Even though some reliable sources, that Wikipedia uses as reference, exaggerate the gross collections of certain films, Andhraboxoffice.com gives the exact figures. For Sarainodu, here is the standard source showing that the movie has collected Rs. 101 crores. http://www.ibtimes.co.in/sarainodu-sarrainodu-17-day-box-office-collection-allu-arjun-starrer-crosses-rs-100-crore-678046 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhuvannalla (talk • contribs) 19:05, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What is your metric for determining "authentic"? The quality of Indian journalism is poor, and if your argument is that the entertainment sections of these sources are quoting Andhra without vetting the accuracy yourself, I'm not sure that's your strongest argument. And again, the site is a blog and there is no clear indication of who is behind it or what makes the people who run the site experts in the field. How do you plan to establish that it doesn't constitute user-generated content? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:49, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See the sourcing and discussion from Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Indian cinema task force. It was discussed last in October 2014 and the page itself was deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andhra Box Office. If someone thinks it is notable now, we can discuss it again but I see no evidence that the website has substantively improved to a level to indicate reliability. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 01:08, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Ricky. Since this discussion may be archived one day, for historical accuracy, I wanted to clarify one point from my comment above: I don't think that all Indian journalism is bad, but there are a lot of bad examples out there, and a lot of people who run fly-by-night sites that adhere to zero traditional journalistic standards. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:14, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that's in dispute. That's the Indian film board has found some websites are reliable sources and others as not. The important thing is that there is consistency and we don't need to rehash every discussion. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 03:19, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: Sorry, we don't use primary sources for controversial information like financial details. Directors, producers, actors, promoters all have a vested interest in inflating or deflating these numbers, depending on what their financial goals are. (Inflating numbers might make the film more attractive to people who want to be part of the spectacle, deflating numbers might make the production company less liable for entertainment taxes, etc.) We're only interested in what reliable secondary sources (no blogs, no IMDb) have to say about the data.

The film named Killing Veerappan which released on january 1st 2016(kannada version) and 7th january 2016(telugu dubbed version) collected approx 34 crores in both languages.
