While a lot of theories have been postulated about CHAKDE! INDIA having started on a slow note in the Overseas, there are already indications of a turnaround.
In the US, CHAKDE! INDIA, which grossed $351,887, during the first weekend, is rock steady with $246,984 in the second, for a total of $732,426 so far.
Coming to UK, the movie which had grossed $259,871, last weekend, has obtained $161,388 this weekend, and the total gross now stands at $593,805.
The Shah Rukh Khan-Vidya Malavde starrer had a good first weekend in the Australia with Aus $94,870 and has followed it up with an impressive Aus $75,988, for a total gross of Aus $210,133.
It will be interesting to monitor CHAKDE! INDIA's progress, as the overseas audience seems to have warmed up to the movie now.

hi loving guy plz go to the following link u can find the details below http://in.movies.yahoo.com/070821/128/6jq8j.html also read the second week performance of chake de india here http://in.movies.yahoo.com/070426/128/6f172.html
Mr.Negi all praise for SRK Whenever a crowd gathered to have his glimpse during shooting, Shahrukh told them that 'Negi Sahab' was real hero while he was merely a filmi hero.
Former Indian hockey coach Mir Ranjan Negi was all praise for Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan saying he was overwhelmed by his dedication towards work and respect for elders.
Recounting his experience while working with Shahrukh in Aditya Chopra's 'Chak de India' -- a film that draws inspiration from Negi's life --, he told UNI here today that he found that the actor was full of dynamism.
''Shahrukh is very humble and has regard for elders despite being one of the best actors in film industry,'' Negi said, adding that the actor used to touch his feet as soon as he arrived on sets although he asked him not to do so.
Whenever a crowd gathered to have his glimpse during shooting, Shahrukh told them that 'Negi Sahab' was real hero while he was merely a filmi hero.
Negi had trained Shahrukh and the girls who acted in the movie.
The film had received accolades for the manner in which Shahrukh and the girls appeared on the field.
chak de india is brilliant film on hockey sports and hope it evokes intrest in hockey. The film touches the heart and is a well made film. SRK gives a performance of a lifetime he truly is the soul of the film.
This movie is simply amazing and the liks of this kind of movie is perhaps the first in Bollywood. Am really glad that they have chosen hockey and not cricket. It's about time other sports in India get more attention. Even if this sparks a tiny interest in hockey, it would be worth it And what can I say aboout SRK. I am not a SRK fan and usually detest his acting. But he ROCKS in this movie and has acted well within himself
now the report is confirmed that chak de is a hit and not a flop rediif, box-officeindia, ibos, ndtv, cnn ib7 all have confirmed it. so where are the guys ( coold dude and mrm) who said that chak de is flop have they gone in hibernation or still in coma. Appreciate good movies irrespective of its box-office performance, people will remember movies and their stories and performances not box-office reports
outstanding movie I ever seen. SRK was one of his best role...after Mohabbatein n Devdas i like him in it............ Go n watch Hockey n cheer up for Indian Hockey Team.....
Chak de india is a very well made film the best of the year and potraits the image of the indian's women's hockey team very well. It's a landmark fim. SRK delivers a soulful performance and desrves applause for it. The film should win the best film award along with SRK receiving the best actor trophy but here in india jury choose films on personal favorites and and their choices so i am sure that chak de will not be their favourites The film des
Chak De is about sports and above all unity and Indianess.We da people r dividing our own country by states,communities etc.This movie is the right tight slap.Also it emphasises on woman power.As a sportperson(Football) by myself I know this pain of state division and egos and attitude of officials which Ashwin Chaturbedi plays rightly(Shame).People running sports in India never care about da game and facilities.They play with their dirty politics and money game of favorism.I hope CHAK DE bring back some sense to dem so they can actually do something for the games other than cricket.Hockey and football r action packed,short and most popular games in the world.Indian officials kill these games in India,maybe they will come into their sense after seeing this movie
Chak De!...INDIA is one of the BEST MOVIE I have ever seen. SRK delivers best acting of his career and truly deserves the BEST ACTOR award for this year. What if today's generation are less intrest about hockey game?.... This movie is not just about hockey game. It is also about to know: 1. How to build a team. 2. How to handle team internal issues. 3. How to handle ego problems. 4. How to build team spirit. 5. Sincearity, Dignity, and Decipline
EVERY INDIAN SHOULD WATCH THIS MOVIE AND SUPPORT THIS MOVIE.
