PK Becomes Highest Grosser Of All Time In 15 Days
2014 proved to be a bad year at box office for Hindi film industry and after disastrous November and half of December, Aamir Khan starrer 'PK' was the only hope for survival for exhibitors. But film scored big week and yesterday film became highest grosser in history of Bollywood.
Film has collected 182.58 cr nett in week one which was outstanding number and this is 2nd highest week one number after 'Dhoom 3'. Film scored big numbers in Mumbai and that is why despite low Friday film managed to cross all other releases.
Film had humongous record breaking 2nd week as film collected 95.50 cr nett plus which is just 50% drop after such big week one. This 2nd week total record will be toughest to beat in years to come. Film has broken lifetime territory records too in Mumbai, Delhi/UP, East Punjab, CP, CI and Mysore.
Film held strongly on 3rd Friday as film retained close to 2800 screens. Film collected close to 6.69 cr nett with total of 285 cr nett plus and thus film became highest grosser ever in history of Bollywood surpassing 'Dhoom 3' in 15 days straight. Film will collect 24-25 cr nett over 2nd weekend and it will cross unbelievable 300 cr nett by end of Sunday.
Film will finish with 320-325 cr nett lifetime business and this record should be there for few years like last Hirani''s film '3 Idiots'. Rajkumar Hirani has proved again that content is king. Even with average music, simple marketing and ordinary promos, a film can win classes, masses critics and box office. Power to good cinema!
Film also collected 130 cr in 14 days in overseas and it seems that film will cross 145 - 150 cr there too by the end of run as film will get boost from new year holidays.
