KANK is the biggest first week spinner ever

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 23 2006]

For all the appreciation, criticism, good/bad word of mouth and some mixed bad of press support that Karan Johar's 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna' was getting since its August 11 release, the facts and figures have indeed painted a brilliantly lit bright picture for the film.

As per a reliable box office source, the film has gone on to net close to Rs. 28 crore in a matter of one week across cinemas in India. This clearly beats the 26.5 crore record created by 'Krrish' just 7 weeks back. Not just in India but even in overseas the film has already broken a number of records set over last few years by margin of crores.

The trade is now obviously enthusiastic with the figures being out and has all eyes set in two big releases coming up soon - 'Don- The Chase Begins Again' and 'Dhoom 2'.

Would the records tumble again? Come October/November and we should have all the answers out in open!
