HOW KAABIL BEAT RAEES HOLLOW IN THIS CLASH

The much talked about clash of January 2017 between Kaabil and Raees has been one of the most interesting battle of ego crushing. The first day victory went to Raees thanks to it getting more screens due its Baahubali 2 deal. There was a 10 cr difference between the two films with Raees leading by a good margin. But the difference dwindled right from the second day onwards as Word of mouth of both films kicked in with Kaabil getting frighteningly close to Raees in a matter of days.And then the unthinkable happened.

The weekdays began where kaabils WOM started to stamp its ground all over and fearing a possible loss of  the "perception battle" , red chilles team started fudging its numbers just in a bid to outdo the Kaabil numbers. This is evident because it was always the kaabil numbers that came first and then red chilles came up with a crore higher. By the end of the first week, the difference in day to day collections closed in to a staggeringly low figure which was just under 1 crore.  Meanwhile, exhibitors decided to give Kaabil extra screens as it was performing better than Raees and hence Kaabil showed an upsurge in collections from 5.25 cr thursday to 6.40 cr on Friday . But the Raees makers were caught cold when they gave out figures of 6.60 cr , in a desperate attempt to outdo kaabil second friday numbers , but fully exposing their blatant lies and fraud. How can Raees have an upsurge on sec ond friday when kaabil was given more shows and raees shows were reduced?

With kaabil now crossing the 100 cr club in a matter of 11 days, it has already won the perception battle because Raees is merely few 10s of crores ahead. One wonders what struck srk to go ahead and clash with Kaabil? Did he find hrithik a "soft target" just because he had a mohenjo daro behind him? Did srk forget he had a Fan behind him and a disaster director like rahul dholakia directing him? What was srk smoking? These are some questions only srk can answer, off screen of course.
