This #Karthikeya2 is picking my brain for a long time. Total collections - 60 cr is what they are saying. And they are also saying theatres are houseful. Now, let's consider 75% occupancy as the reasonable one. Let's assume the dataset is complete.

At 75% occupancy, the film will clock a minimum of 110-115 crore. But, what is declared? 60 crore. Now, why do I say the occupancy numbers are not correct? Because I know for sure these two are houseful.
Now, if the occupancy data is incomplete, what's the chance show details is also incomplete? Now, this dataset shows the total occupancy to be around 25% and the projected income shows it as 40%. Simple question. How can a movie have a bull run for two weeks at 40% occupancy?
Similar numbers for that super flop #LalSinghChadha 15-20% occupancy on these numbers(actual around 60 crore). Now, a superflop has 20% occupancy and a superhit has 40% occupancy? How does that even work?

If we go by the Aryan Invasion Theory, three languages emerged out of the Steppes - Hittite, Hykso and Sanskrit and there was at least two languages on the borderlands - Proto-Georgian and Proto-Armenian.
Logically, the linguistic distance between Sanskrit and Latin should be much greater than that of the distances from Hykso and Hittite. Do we have information over this? And then, the linguistic distance between Hykso and French should be less distance between Hykso and Bengali.
If you don't have proofs of existence of a language but at best have a hypothesis(in crude form, an educated guess), shouldn't you identify some logical data pointers to establish the hypothesis?

These sort of people help us do some serious intellectual timepassing. Let's see.
There was never a destruction of religious entities before the 653(hope I got the date correct) Abdurrahman raid. Why is this raid a watershed and completely different from the innumerable raids which came before that?
Even a basic reading of India history tells you of the slugfest in Afghanistan between 650 and 1000. The fact that Islam failed to breach the border fortresses is not a reason enough to declare the attack on the border fortresses didn't happen.

Even hundreds of Nehru, Gandhi & Patel in Muslim League could not have got Pakistan but if there was a single Jinnah in Indian National Congress, India would never have been partitioned - Sarojini Naidu.
What made him leave Congress and become a big India hater?
I am not giving a clean chit to his nature. The fact that he married a Parsi and forbade his daughter to marry a Parsi clearly tells what sort of a bigot he is. The fact that he asked Bhopal to accede to India but
goaded the Nizam to fight to death for his independence tells what sort of a petty creature he is. The fact that he fought for Kalat's independence as it's lawyer but invaded Kalat the minute he became the head of Pakistan tells what sort of a crook he is.

"It is obvious, indeed, that the master of India must, under modern conditions, be the greatest power in the Asiatic Continent, and therefore, it may be added, in the world. The central position of India, its magnificent resources, its teeming multitude of men,
it’s great trading harbours, its reserve of military strength, supplying an army always in a high state of efficiency and capable of being hurled at a moment’s notice upon any point either of Asia or Africa— all these are assets of precious value.

The fundamental problem with Bollywood is different. For the production and the actors, #LalSinghChaddha is not a flop. They would have received their money by now. Who takes the losses? Distributors. They have already bought the rights - or they are coerced to buy the rights.
Now, the situation is this. If you boycott, its the theatre owners who take losses. If you don't boycott, Bollywood will brazen out by dishing out more nonsense like #LalSinghChaddha. The only solution for this is to ensure the distributors won't accept such movies.
But, is it realistically possible? What is the chance that a distributor or a theatre owner, howmuchsoever big he is, can dare to boycott a big ticket Bollywood movie? Make no mistake, till the time a distributor boycotts, Bollywood will not see any losses.

By 640, Western Turkic Khaganate was firmly in Chinese control and Taizong started to look West and it's a matter of time Tarim was invested though these kingdoms were formal Tang vassals. And naturally, Tarim kingdoms went to Western Turkic Khaganate for protection.
The first armies marched on Kara Khoja or Turpan in 640. Unlike the other kingdoms, this one is more Han in nature and the ruler Qu Wentai died of shock hearing of the news of advance. The Khaganate troops retreated and the son of the dead king surrendered.
China declared that because it's a Han area, it makes sense for it to be a part of Tang Empire. Now, a military garrison just on their borders spooked the other states and both Kucha and Agni(Karashahr) fled to the Khaganate for protection.
