Ekk Deewana Tha, which was being expected to hit the bigger jackpot due to being the remake of Tamil superhit and then the scripting of Javed Akhtar and music of Oscar winner A R Rahman, could not do well at the box office in India and overseas. The film was beaten out very badly by the viewers who did not approve it at all. The rumor mills and the gossips of the affair of the leading players – Prateik Babbar and Amy Jackson – all did not help the movie to get good business at BO. Even the film could not make average business in both home and international market.
Karan Johar’s Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, which opened good in India and abrod, starring Imaran Khan and Kareena Kapoor did supremely well in overseas market. It is very close to the mark of $4 million business in international circuit. The 10 days business for the film from the major international circuits is as follows:
United Kingdom (UK) - £530,000
USA - $1,025,000
UAE - $725,000
Australia - $195,000
Karan Johar’s another mega hit Agneepath has been on way to allure the hearts of the people. The film still keeps on igniting the success flame in international markets. Hrithik Roshan and Sanjay Dutt starrer collected $6 million and in North America it will hit the mark of $2 million. The business of Agneepath from the major international circuits is as follows:
United Kingdom (UK) - £725,000
USA - $1,975,000
UAE - $1,400,000
Australia - $460,000
