Box office report: Hrithik overtakes Salman and SRK

November 6, 2013

HrithikNov 6: In what is seen as the growing impact of Hindi cinema week after week, Rakesh Roshan's super-hero thriller Krrish3 has shattered all box office records.

The film opened wide, with a count of 3,700 screens in Hindi, while 500 extra were allotted for Tamil and Telugu. This Bollywood offering started with an approximate `21.5 crore on Dhanteras. But distributors and exhibitors across the country said even `21.5 crore is fantastic, because no other film has dared to release pre-Diwali. From Monday, the screen count increased by 150 because several parts of Central India and even the North do not release films pre-Diwali.

While the first three days' total added up to `65 crore, with an additional `5.25 crore coming from the regional languages, Krrish showed his magical powers to the fullest when he broke all previous one-day records by collecting `35.10 crore on Monday — November 4, a date that will be marked in Indian film history.

It was the original release date set for the film and the intention, even when it was first scheduled, was to break all previous records, which it did. Krrish 3 has now broken the records of films like Ek Tha Tiger (`30.72 crore) and Chennai Express (`29.37 crore).

Krrish 3 also collected `24 crore (GBOC) in its opening period from abroad, a fact corroborated by the Roshans.

The trade maintained that the film looked bombastic on Tuesday, which is an optional holiday, on account of Bhai Dooj or the Tikka ceremony. It now appears like `100 crore is a four-to-five-day affair for superstars like Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan. In fact, the producers have said that they had reached `108.61 crore in four days from 4450 screens.

Los Angeles, Jun 26: Warner Bros has moved its Christopher Nolan-directed espionage thriller Tenet from July 31 to August 12.

It's the second delay for the highly-anticipated movie, which was originally scheduled to release on July 17 but was postponed to July 31 due to coronavirus pandemic.

Warner Bros. is committed to bringing Tenet' to audiences in theaters, on the big screen, when exhibitors are ready and public health officials say it's time. In this moment what we need to be is flexible, and we are not treating this as a traditional movie release.

We are choosing to open the movie mid-week to allow audiences to discover the film in their own time, and we plan to play longer, over an extended play period far beyond the norm, to develop a very different yet successful release strategy, a Warner Bros spokesperson said in a statement to Deadline.

The studio has also delayed the US re-release of Nolan's sci-fi blockbuster Inception, in honour of the film's 10th anniversary, to July 31.

Tenet features John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Kenneth Branagh, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Michael Caine, Clemence Poesy, Dimple Kapadia and Himesh Patel.
