The facts please

Yes I am complete agreement here where the hell did you get $350 million????



In its US release to date it has made just over $4 million, actually $4,278,587 to be exact. So internationally we are to believe that $345,721,413.



Are you guys mad???



And please do not compare this film to a film that is an anomolly in MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING. it made over $200 million dollars in the United States, it is the only film with a budget of $5,000,000 to do so. And by the way, internationally GREEK WEDDING has only made about $20 million.



This is another classic case of trying to create sensationalism through comparison. Stop the insanity!

Guys, the writer has just made a typo.



"The starless $5 million ethnic comedy, with Parminder Nagra in

the lead, has grossed an astounding $350 million worldwide."



That should read



"The starless $5 million ethnic comedy, with NIA VARDALOS in

the lead, has grossed an astounding $350 million worldwide."



Because MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING has grossed that much

worldwide. ITS A TYPO!!

350 million worldwide??????? Do your homework first!! Rediff seems to go to extremes in every article....too negative or too much hype.

Great Movie !!

I saw this movie. It is really very nice. Nice to hear that movie is doing well in USA. Our bollywood should also take lesson from such type of movie. If something new & interesting will be shown then definitely it will be hit.
