This page says that Dasavatharam was released in the year 2008 and that it has grossed around Rs.200 crore worldwide. The page also says that the highest grossing movie of the year 2008 is Ghajini (Rs.190 Cr) Shouldnt Dasavatharam be the highest grossing movie of 2008? I request to change the Highest grossing movie of the year 2008 from Ghajini to Dasavatharam. Thank You> 49.205.139.245 (talk) 12:45, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.ibtimes.co.in/baahubali-first-weekend-box-office-collection-rajamouli-film-breaks-lifetime-worldwide-records-639066 The artice which is the reference for the collections of Magadheera states that Sivaji had earned Rs 155 Cr. I request you to change the collections of Sivaji from Rs.148 Cr to Rs.155 Cr.The movie has grossed more than the highest grossing movie of 2007. I also request you to change the highest grossing movie of 2007 from Om Shanti Om (Rs.150 Cr) to Sivaji (Rs.155 Cr) Thank You 49.205.139.245 (talk) 12:55, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the director in an interview said than sivaji the boss cross over 150 crore but here just stated that 148cr Nito Nithish (talk) 16:41, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, please clear my doubts. According to a single source, this page is mentioning that kabali gross is just 350cr. According to my heavy research, Kabali gross must be over 600cr as many big sources such as the indian express, Indiaglitz,Behindwoods and even the director gave a speech of kabali to cross 700cr very soon. Please add my choice, idea and my proof in your mind and go for more researches on kabali gross as many south Indians are waiting for. Nito Nithish (talk) 16:38, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Nito Nithish: This has been discussed numerous times here, at Talk:Kabali, at WP:RSN, etc. The information about Kabali's gross is explained thoroughly in the article with references. If there is a reasonable dispute, it would be incorrect to elevate Kabali to the top of the list and promote the higher number as an indisputable fact. What we do know without question, is that Kabali grossed at least ₹350 crore. When the trades finally develop the balls to say definitively what they think Kabali really made at the box office (not total revenue), for instance if they released their own "highest-grossing films" list, then it might be worth another consideration. But the super-high values obviously included satellite and music rights, which we never include in gross figures, and nobody's brought any fresh sources to the table since then. So the short answer is that due to poor reporting and a lot of hyped data, nobody knows for sure what the box office gross of Kabali was. Also, a director is considered a primary source. We don't use primary sources for controversial data, because a director/producer/actor/distributor would have every reason to lie about the success of their film. Conflict of interest.

Can you be more specific about what you are proposing should be changed? The first source, which appears to be focused on Janatha Garage, is from September 2016, when the value currently in the article uses a reference from October 2016.[1] So I'm unclear what you want us to do with that first reference. Anyway, more clarity is needed, please. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:13, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am talking about the entire list of Telugu gross collections. The first source gives the gross collection of highest grossing Telugu movies. Just look at the tabular column at the end of the article and forget about Janata garage in that article. The second source is for Srimanthudu movie, which is an additional source to the former. The third source is for Khaidi no.150 box office collection. Go through the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.249.209.203 (talk) 03:35, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, you need to be more specific about the changes you want to be made. Like: in the list of "Highest-grossing Telugu films" please change X film's gross to ₹YYY crore based on Z source. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:36, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please refer to the below headings which you have asked for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.202.229.77 (talk) 07:32, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Srimanthudu Box office update

Please refer to the above articles for any claims. 122.164.207.186 (talk) 11:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Business-Standard seems to disagree, indicating a gross of 200 crore. The first IBT source you provided attributes the figures to Andhra Box Office, which is a blog. We don't typically use figures from blogs. The second indicates a gross of 150 crore. But since there is no singular authority on Indian film grosses, what would you propose be done here? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:20, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Khaidi No. 150 box office update

http://www.ibtimes.co.in/khaidi-no-150-16-day-box-office-collection-chiranjeevis-movie-inches-closer-rs-150-cr-mark-2nd-713807 The above source can be used for Khaidi no.150 gross collection which is not 166 crores but 141 crores. 122.164.207.186 (talk) 11:29, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This one I'd agree with, since the value is attributed to an unverified Twitter post from a film critic. I'm not sure what makes a film critic an expert in financials, but regardless, whomever submitted that is making an assumption that this guy's assertion is correct. They should argue this here. In the meantime, I've swapped this to the IBT value here. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:20, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In the list of highest gross indian film by the year (2007), it was stated that the movie name is shivaji but if is actually sivaji: the boss. Secondly, please change the highest grossing Tamil film of sivaji: the boss gross as 155cr, as it was in the 'list of highest grossing film by the year'. Thank you. Nito Nithish (talk) 15:02, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sivaji (film) is the name of the article, and the "The Boss" doesn't appear in the article prose. If you think this is an erroneous title, you should probably bring that up at Talk:Sivaji (film) and see what other editors think. My suspicion is that the editors felt that most of the reliable sources were describing the film plainly as Sivaji. As for the second part of your request, you'd need to provide a reference to support the 155 crore claim. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:26, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.ibtimes.co.in/baahubali-first-weekend-box-office-collection-rajamouli-film-breaks-lifetime-worldwide-records-639066

The above source is enough to prove that, the world wide collection of the Tamil movie sivaji is 155 crores and not 148 crores. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.246.82.246 (talk) 09:59, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If I'm not mistaken, IBT attributes the number to Andhra Box Office, a blog. Please see WP:UGC. The figure and have to be independently verified. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 10:36, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. You made a mistake. Just go through the blog. Only that specific paragraph was stated by that blog. The remaining are as per reports, as you can see that in the following paragraph. You can click on the 'Andhra box Office', if you want that clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.251.237.42 (talk) 14:36, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The box office source of the Telugu film 'Attarintiki Daredi' seem to be wrong. Please have a look at the below source. The actual gross figure is 131 crores and not 187 crores. Maybe a clarification has to be arranged from both the sources. http://www.ibtimes.co.in/janatha-garage-box-office-collection-will-jr-ntrs-film-beat-sarrainodu-srimanthudu-693653 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.251.237.42 (talk) 14:54, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
