'Dhoom 3' is aiming for 300 crore collections
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,January 03 2014]
'Mahabharat' just couldn't score in its Week One as it was 'Dhoom 3' weave all the way in its second week as well. After getting a minimal release, 'Mahabharat' wasn't helped by the reviews either. All of this meant that the collections were pretty much negligible and the film could barely manage to complete one week at the box office. The film is hardly in the running now and curtains on one of the most ambitious animation films coming out of the Hindi film industry further puts question on the animation market in India.
On the other hand 'Dhoom 3' continued to break records and a hugely superb second week saw yet another record being broken, that of the kind of moolah that '3 Idiots'. That Rajkumar Hirani directed film had scored 56 crores in its second week and 'Dhoom 3' has now surpassed it by a distance, what with around 68 crore coming in. The Vijay Krishna Acharya directed film has now netted over 245 crore in two weeks and that too just in the Hindi version.
The way the film is going, it is all set to cross the 275 crore mark and be an All Time Blockbuster on the way. However by some stroke of luck, the combined collections with Tamil and Telugu version along with an extended run could even bring 'Dhoom 3' strikingly close to the 300 crore mark.
This one is going to be a keenly awaited milestone.
