jhoomer is smashing flopp
Well u cannot say tht...Jhoomer is still doing good business in Punjab only..same is the case wid MS...Godfather toh merey khiyal sey ab sirf Pindi mein hi hai!
Jhoomer and Khuda Kay Liye will sweep awards..MS ka awards lena..mushkil hai but i can also!
Nigar Film Weekly has stated Jhoomer as a classic movie and rated it standard wise the best movie rls on Eid and a must watch!
i agree, jhoomer should be second best film after kkl

the film was wasted by releasing it on eid, it had ingrediants to become a smash hit, they should have delayed it. its not even playing in the new cinepax in pindi.

saw it today in cineworld, they played it on their smallest screen but was house full nearly, the film seemed to have some scences cut, which i saw in the pirate dvd but not in cinema. also people are saying it will further pick up cos of word of mouth but next week oso and saawariya are releasing, maybe it can benefit from the overflow if oso and saawariya go housefull.

well firstly you cant say flop or hit to pakistani films after just few days, in india or usa you can as they have big infranstruchure, there films release in 500/600 cinemas and films cover all costs in first two weeks and then they get off cinema and release on dvd straight away.
in pakistan situation is completly different theres no infranstruchure here, for films to be hit they have to run for long time in cinemas, here films only open in 15 cinemas and cant recover costs till it runs for 2/3 months, hit films stay in cinemas for more the year, look at majajan and half years old but its still running in major cinemas that is how a film is blockbuster in pakistan, the postive thing about this system is that if film is good word will spread on it and people can go and watch it, thats not the case in india as films only last 2 weeks in cinemas there and when word of mouth is out its also out of cinemas,
so in jhoomers case its goes for it,opening is lowest but film is being highly appreciated, and when word is out hype will automaticly increase, exactly what happened with chooriyan, mehndi waley haat and majajan. plus jhoomer had a limited release and is yet to release in karachi, so now that people are appreiating it, media will pick it up and the news will be heard in karachi so when it releases in khi, there will be hype around it and people willing to watch it.
they say "seeing is believing", n this proverb probably goes best with the movies.
I appreicate your time an effort in analysing the situation bro, but i have personally seen this movie. And being a regular viewer of Pakistani movies for almost 10 years now, i can tell if a specific is gonna be a success or not after seeing it.
Remember wot i told you guys about MEDLKA n Tere Bin Jiya Na Jaye, some very serious viewers like Chrizmatic (no offence dude) declared them very gud and Super Hitt rightaway. I kept saying after seeing the movies that they were gonna be big flops, no one believed me. Now truth is in front of you.
No matter how gud is the promotion, how many cinemas the movies released in n wot time it released, there's always a simple criteria for a movie to be HIT. That's its quality (that includes story, direction, music, actions, cinematography etc.). Which none of the above mentioned movies (neither Jhoomer) comply to:
Aggresive promotion and number of cinemas might get you intial good response but the fate of the movie eventually comes down to its Quality.
And jhoomer is gonna b out the cinemas before it celebrates its first month. YOu can take my words.
well my post was on analysis of box office in pakistan not on jhoomer, you sjust repeated what i said, and i agree for a movie to be hit in pakistan it needs to be a quality movie and i guess thats what goes for jhoomer by looking at the reports. your review might be bad on it, but media is appreciating it, well not everyone can like it, even people hated kkl.

i will allow bollywood films to release when we have the infranstruchure, right now we dnt and if indian films release not a single cinema house will play any pakistani films and the industry which has finaly started to improve will fall back down.
indian films could have been allowed way back before when we wernt making good films and cinemas were empty but this year situation has changed and ban should stay on bollywood to allow lollywood to prosper, when more cineplexes open i will allow bollwyood to come
