Shah Rukh Khan’s rise to the top hasn’t really been too difficult. His swarms of fans have followed him through his near three-decade long career through all the ups and downs and sudden U-turns.
After you excuse all the ‘bokwaas’, realisation sets in that despite all the criticism, SRK’s latest film 'Chennai Express' has become the fastest film to earn 100 crores at the box office (domestic). The film did 103.50 crore in 4.5 days, breaking 'Ek Tha Tiger's record of Rs 100 crores in five days!
'Chennai Express' managed a cool Rs 6.75 crores in paid previews on Thursday, earning another first for the movie in ‘highest paid collections’. It broke the '3 Idiots' paid preview record (of Rs 2.75 crores) and 'Ek Tha Tiger''s first day collection record (close to Rs 33 crores). The film and its cast, including the film’s director, has been trending on twitter for four days now.
So if you’re wondering about the film’s earnings in total, try to wrap your head around these figures. But keep in mind the numbers are just for three days, the film is still running to full houses.
Opening day: Rs 33.12 crore
