In the key international market USA-Canada, the ‘2 States' has overtaken Jai Ho by a good margin.

“2States all set to cross $ 1 million mark in USA-Canada in opng wknd itself. BIGGEST OPENER of 2014 there. Overtakes #JaiHo by a margin!”, tweets trade analyst Taran Adarsg.



Not only this, the Chetan Bhagat's novel adaptation has also surpassed Arjun's ‘Gunday' which also stars Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra in numerous countries.

“2States *New Zealand* Thu NZ$ 9,335, Fri NZ$ 22,939, Sat NZ$ 17,143. Total: NZ$ 49,417 [Rs 25.57 lacs]… #Gunday *wknd* NZ$ 41,304”
