Kannada highest grossing the villain

The Villain movie starring Shivaraj kumar and Kiccha sudeepa has become the highest grossing kannada movie with 123 crore rupees world wide gross , so please update the list SUHAS JAYANNA (talk) 19:07, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The villain movie to cross 100 cr in 15 days please update Chiranth01 (talk) 18:38, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The villain makers have claimed 60cr ww in first week Chiranth01 (talk) 18:40, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

https://mtwiki.blogspot.com/2018/10/top-10-highest-grossing-kannada-movies-of-all-time-by-worldwide-box-office-collection.html?m=1 Even according to this website the villain collection is 123crs make the necessary changes Chiranth01 (talk) 18:52, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

https://movie-rater.com/the-villain-movie-review-and-box-office-collections-hit-or-flop.html in this website the first 17 days of the villain is given in detailed that is 109crs . Make the changes the villain Kannada top grosser Chiranth01 (talk) 12:48, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Chiranth01: You do realise that anybody can start a blog and publish whatever nonsense they want, right? We don't use blogs or other random websites as sources. Find a major mainstream publication that agrees with the claim you are making. That means a major news website, for instance. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:00, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/will-shiva-rajkumar-s-villain-reach-magic-rs-100-crore-mark-90621 is this fine the villain collection report week 1 @Cyphoidbomb Chiranth01 (talk) 10:02, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Chiranth01: Yeah, nice try. That source is repeating speculation by distributors that the film could cross 100. Prediction ≠ fact. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 12:59, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb but it clearly said that it collected 60cr first week Chiranth01 (talk) 15:08, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Chiranth01: It says "the distributors of the Kannada movie The Villain disclosed that the film had made Rs 60 crore during the first weekend". The distributors would constitute a primary source, and we should be circumspect about the claims made by directors, producers, actors, distributors and anybody else with a conflict of interest, as all these people have an incentive to inflate figures. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:31, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

But primary source can be taken as estimated collection for the villain Cyphoidbomb If so what about hebbuli this article says that amala paul and kiccha sudeep starrer movie hebbuli as grossed above 100crs shttps://www.thenewsminute.com/article/hebbuli-s-huge-success-amala-paul-gets-tag-rs-100-crore-actor-61504 Chiranth01 (talk) 04:29, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Chiranth01: You posted the same thing twice, three minutes apart. Do you think you can handle having a constructive conversation about this, or are you just going to post a bunch of stuff over and over? Please provide a Wikipedia approved guideline that says that "primary source can be taken as estimated collection for the villain", because I'm unaware of that being a rule, and I've been around for a long time. I also don't understand your Hebbuli counter-argument, so you might want to be a bit more explanatory the next time you post. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:48, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb https://newsable.asianetnews.com/entertainment/puneeth-rajkumar-sudeep-yash-darshan-salary-raajakumara-anjaniputra-kannada-stars-salary when this can be taken as source for rajkumara Kannada movie . Why can't the source given by me be taken ? Chiranth01 (talk) 13:39, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The source given by me are much better than the sources used in many places in this page so I think u can do the necessary changes the either way and hebbuli was not counter but question for u y it was not taken as a source @Cyphoidbomb Chiranth01 (talk) 13:47, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Box office collections of movies.

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 In hindi section No1. 517cr In Telgu section No1. 283cr In Tamil section No2. 157cr In Kannada section No1. 90-110cr In malayalam section No2. 70cr Anurag Anand 1815131 (talk) 23:36, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@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 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

 Not done for now: At least four of the five references you've submitted are not sufficient for consideration. Nobody cares what indianmoviestats.com says, and Filmibeat is not considered a reliable source for financial data. Not sure why you think mirchi9.com is a sufficient reference, but I've never heard of it. Also, a source like this, which vaguely says that "Attarintiki Daredi collections crossed Magadheera" is not helpful, since there's no vetted gross amounts included so that we might provide context, and the content is ultimately attributed to way2movies.com, a source that is not a popular, reliable outlet. So why don't you go back through your post and try to re-establish your argument with references we can use. See WP:ICTF#Guidelines on sources for guidance. Thank you.

How can you include Bahubali as highest in Tamil language when it is a Telugu film . Don't fool the world. Change it. Or include Robo2.0 total collections in Telugu tab also. You are hurting the sentiments of Tamil film industry. We will lodge a protest complaint in the TN film chamber of commerce and also take legal advise and file police complaint also.

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.

@Mdiggin: You mean the updated figure that was 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. 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. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:00, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Wow! Okay. You really think these so called legitimate sources and financial analysts are true to the tee. Well, I'm all for legitimate numbers. Let's wait. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mdiggin (talk • contribs) 22:12, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Mdiggin: I don't believe any of them are true to a tee, but when they're writing stories based on comments that regular people have written, that's just shitty journalism. Also, please sign your posts by typing four tildes like this ~~~~. This will append your signature and time stamp. It would also be helpful if you'd please indent your replies using colons.

Update Highest-grossing opening weekends list

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

 Not done: @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. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:33, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Highest-grossing opening weekends

The Highest-grossing opening weekends table is a bit of a mess and I've 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? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:50, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
