Salman Khan’s Wanted Plunges at Box Office in 2nd Wk

Salman Khan’s latest crap show Wanted has collapsed at the U.S. box office.

Wanted grossed a shamefully low $57,133 in its second weekend at the U.S. box office.

The piece of junk came in at No-51 and had an average gross of $805.

Can it get any worse, folks?

As of September 27, 2009, Wanted had grossed a total of $332,818 here.

Wanted has fared miserably in its second weekend at the U.S. box office compared to a few other prominent Bollywood movies.

    another funny news: Rajnikanth and Kamalhaasan got best actor award for sivaji and dasavatharam for the years 2007 & 2008 from government of TN

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    How did the TN Govt miss T.Rajendar?

    Achacho, pavam (a pity).

    Surely, this old comedian also deserves an award for this lengthy expulsion of gas.

    The Tamilnadu state awards for films are out: If you are faint of heart, now is the time to skip over 🙂

    2007 Awards

    Best Actor- Rajinikanth- Sivaji
    Best Actress- Jyothika- Mozhi
    Best Film- 1st- Sivaji, 2nd – Mozhi , 3rd- Pallikoodam

    2008 Awards

    Best Actor- Kamal Hassan- Dasavatharam
    Best Actress- Sneha- Pirivom Sandhippom
    Best Film- 1st Dasavatharam, 2nd – Abhiyum Naanum , 3rd- Santhosh Subramaniam

    Who knew that the state (& it’s jury) had a sense of humor? (truth be told, its hard to discern and harder to appreciate)

    Special prizes

    Best Actor- Suriya-Vaaranam Aayiram 
    Best Actress- Trisha-Abhiyum Naanum 
    Best Film Portraying Women in Good Light- Poo

    On the last category, is the state unwittingly crucifying the tamil movie industry for slutifying women with trashy roles such as those played by the Nayantharas, Trishas, Shriyas and Namithas? 
    As for the “good light” that the state commends here, the protagonist (played very well by Parvathi Menon), pines for the love of her “Murai Mappillai”
    (designated husband?) throughout the movie and turns up empty handed in a case of unrequited love. If this is the glowing brilliance that the state wishes it’s women to be shone with, can you imagine what the depths of despair would look like for Tamil women?

    For the complete list, see

    Following the above ‘exciting’ news, SI blog is in extremis and will soon kick the bucket.

    For all your entertainment needs going forward, try pocket billiards.

    Best Actor award for what???????
    Playing 10 roles like children dressed for a fancy dressed competition?

    Best actor award for saying the word “COOL” 57 times in Shivaji??
    Best Actor award for dancing with a Damsel who is your daughter’s age?

    And why the f**k did somebody get the best writer award for a film which was fit only to be released in the late 1960s/70s.

    By the way, I see that the film Subramaniapuram has bagged no awards. Wonder if the director didn’t hurry to book his award.

    Ok, by the way here’s one for the statistics, actor Vijay is set to break his own record: Delivering 8 flops in a row! The only actor who may beat him turns out to be none other than our Thala Ajith!

    Wonder what Vettaikkaran and ASAL will dish out?

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    Awards in India have no meaning.

    In any case, both Vettaikkaran and ASAL are likely to hit the screens only in Jan 2010 (Pongal).

    It will be nice if you can post overall box office results (or atleast US + India) as it gives a better perspective of a movie’s success.

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    One reason we keep BO numbers from India to a minimum is that we do not have much credibility in the numbers coming from there.

    In India, people make all sorts of claims that are hard to verify.

    @SI: You write: VETTAIKARAN IS MOST PROBABLY A DIWALI RELEASE

    Have you seen this news item?

    So, that means double disaster for Tamil Fans during Pongal.

    By the way, did you go anywhere near this Thai film called Shutter?

    Can’t say that.

    Maybe Ajith and Vijay picked up some acting tips from a fine actress like Meera Jasmine. Maybe, story is unique.

    2. Shutter, not yet. Still working through backlog.

    We’ll get to it soon.

    Stop day-dreaming!

    If Vijay can make a monkey out of a good director like Dharani, then I shudder to think what he will do to aspiring directors who have a good script(If they ever have one).
    Let’s be clear here, Vijay can only try to act. His best performance in his entire 49 film career has been Ghilli – Thanks to some neat screenplay and direction by Dharani.
    But thanks to Vijay’s antics, Dharani (Who until then had 3 good films such as Dhill, Dhool, and Ghilli to his credit) got his image utterly tarnished.

    As for Ajith, the less I speak about his roles, the better it is.

    As of now, Tamil Cinema’s hopes lay purely on the small budget films such as EERAM, Subramaniapuram, and Nadodigal.

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    One of our U.S. readers who saw Eeram wrote yesterday or the day before that he didn’t think much of it.

    But the movie has generally received some praise.

    My first visit to your site, you seem interesting. You reply to everyone, and lot of trash exchanges. The way you write, I think you might be [deleted].

    Where do you find all time for this, or this site is your full time job & income?

    Anyways, you can meet lot of variety people here and thats fun. After reading that Rajinikant got best actor award, i feel thats the height of your south. You guys want to lick Rajinikanth a marathi by birth and karnatka man by growth. Better your CM enda konda karananithi can lick Sahrukhkan to win some seats in north. It is shame on you tamilians to elect such a cheap people to top. Whom did you vote last election? I feel you might voted sexy Jayalitha? correct?

  13. kane   September 30, 2009 at 10:49 am

    eeram is a good movie by tamil standards but the fellas here overrate it like nadodigal, subramaniyapuram, podisunga(pasanga) as if they were trend setting, path breaking movies they are given a warm welcome as they have a story line deviated from the regular masalasambar,chutney that is normally dished out in tamil,telugu et al

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    We’ll watch Eeram once the DVD comes out.

  14. hiranOhpax   September 30, 2009 at 1:29 pm

    Hey naughty Kane… Eeram is not a trend setter. I was totally let down by the second half after a mind blowing first half. If nadodigal sets any trend I’ll commit suicide. if Subramaniyapuram sets any trent, so much violence that ladies (barring si) and soft guys will stop watching Tamil movies and so will be the case for adults above 10 yrs if pasanga (not podisunga, naughty) sets trend.

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    We thought Kane was saying the opposite of what you imply.

    If we guess right, Kane’s saying Eeram, Nadodigal, Subramaniyapuram and Pasanga are all OK by Tamil movie standards but certainly not trendsetters.

  15. mogambo   September 30, 2009 at 6:47 pm

    Its a fool’s errand trying to read what was on this jury’s mind, but if one were to hazard a guess, Subramnyapuram lost out because the slaughter and bloodletting was too graphic. While the acting by the cast was just OK (Samudrakani was an exception), it was a well made movie that deserved recognition. Maybe, Sasikumar ought to have received the Best Director award.

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    You write: if one were to hazard a guess, Subramnyapuram lost out because the slaughter and bloodletting was too graphic

    Or maybe they didn’t know the ‘right-wrong’ people.
