There have been all sorts of claims from the makers of the flop film Sarkar Raj about how big of a hit it is and the trade is amused by the desperation. A cheeky trade watcher claimed using the Sarkar Raj system Akshay Kumar's Singh Is Kinng is the biggest blockbuster of 2008 without even being released yet.

"The reason is simple the makers have sold the 35 crore budget Singh Is Kinng for 65 crore making a 30 crore profit and Studio 18 who purchased for 65 crore have further sold all the rights for 75 crore giving another10 crore profit. This is much more than the profits of Sarkar Raj so if Sarkar is hit then Singh is Blockbuster".

An exhibitor from Mumbai remarked toungue in cheek "Maybe they think that whatever does better than RGV Ki Aag is a hit"

Looks like the team of Sarkar Raj needs a reality check, its the public who decides a hit film not the team involved with the film but if this the way it is done Singh Is Kinng is one of the biggest hits in the history of Indian cinema even before a soul has watched the film. Way to go Singh.
