Lifetime Business & Economics Of Highest Grosser Ever CHENNAI EXPRESS

 


"Chennai Express" released with humongous expectations and with few biggies were following it, a big lifetime business looked tough. But not only film crushed every subsequent release but also captured the tag of the highest grosser ever. On the way, film surpassed almost every record in book.




Film was rock steady for almost a month and managed to collect 226 cr nett plus in 6 weeks. Film will finish with 226.50 cr nett lifetime total at domestic box office with a share of 126 cr All India. Film became 3rd biggest grosser in overseas with 116 cr and might become highest grosser in future with next phase of release.




Film had also got good ancillary revenues from satellite rights, home video and music video. Film established Shahrukh Khan as numero uno at box office and again established the fact that genre is always bigger than star. Be it Salman or Akshay, every one got success with massy entertainers not with romantic or period drama and when SRK returned to same he too got success and in a way biggest success.
