New Delhi: Aamir Khan's PK has demolished Happy New Year and 3 Idiots' lifetime gross collection by earning Rs 400 cr within just nine days of its release.
According to leading daily Koimoi, the Shah Rukh Khan starrer's worldwide gross collection is 383 cr while Aamir Khan's very own 3 Idiots garnered Rs 395 cr overall. By today, PK would definitely break Shah Rukh's Chennai Express lifetime collection of Rs 422 cr gross to become the second biggest grosser of all time and thereafter will look ahead to surpass Dhoom 3 overall gross collection of Rs 542 cr.
This is a huge achievement for PK which initially didn't have any big record in its name. Now looking at its net collection, the movie has comfortably hit the double ton earning Rs 214 cr within nine days of its release surpassing Dhoom 3 in the race which was ruling the charts with Rs 211.12 cr nett within the same time period.
Hrithik Roshan's Krrish 3 last year earner Rs 207.5 cr nett and takes the third spot in nine days collection race while this year's earlier release Kick starring Salman Khan collected Rs 183.3 cr nett in India by its second Saturday and takes the fourth spot. Shah Rukh's Happy New Year and Chennai Express garnered Rs 172 and Rs 171.60 to stand at number five and sixth respectively.
Slowly and gradually this Aamir Khan starrer is demolishing all the box office records and is setting the new. There are probabilities that the movie will establish a new club of Rs 300 cr and with New Year celebration around and no competition from the other end till Tevar which hits on 9th Jan, PK should surely achieve this milestone.
Here are the nine days nett figures of PK-
Fri cr 26.63 cr, Sat 30.40 cr, Sun 38.24 cr, Mon 22.40, Tue 19, Wed 19.56 Thursday- 29.46 cr, Week 2 Fri 14.61, Sat 17
