DHOOM 3 Is On Record Breaking Spree
''Dhoom 3'' took a mammoth opening and smashed Salman Khan starrer ''Ek Tha Tiger'' records with some distance. Film took a phenomenal start all over as expected and established new biggest non holiday opening record.
Film was exceptional in multiplexes and going by the response, it seems that film will break few records on the way. Film is almost certain to cross 90 cr nett over the weekend and might touch 100 cr nett though 95 cr nett looks more realistic.
Film collected 33.42 cr nett on day one. Film collected close to 36.25 cr nett including all versions (approx 2.80 cr nett in other versions). In CI, film collected 1.17 cr nett against 1.11 cr nett of 'Chennai Express' on opening day. In Rajasthan, film collected close to 2 cr nett which is a new high. Film should smash highest single day figure of 'Krrish 3' (35.91 cr) on Sunday but then the real test will start on Monday when word of mouth and such a huge release size will start affecting.
As per early trends on Saturday, film is down at few places and few other places like Mumbai and NCR are holding up well. Overall it seems film should touch 26 -28 cr nett today too but jump over yesterday looks tough. Though real picture will emerge from evening onwards.
We will be back with next report later in the day.
