Ra.One grosses Rs 170 cr in first five days, Break all Previous records - The Economic Times
Ra.One, Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan's most ambitious project to date, has earned Rs 170 crore in the opening weekend, distributor said.
Produced by Red Chillies and Eros International, Ra.One (released on October 26), grossed Rs 170 crore in first five days. The movie earned Rs 18 crore in India on opening day.
So far, it has raked in Rs 137.25 crore (net collection of Rs 96 crore) in India, and Rs 32.75 crore overseas.
"The film has created history by taking over the mantle of the biggest domestic earner so far. It has touched the highest individual collection in circuits such as Mumbai, Delhi, Punjab and Rajasthan. We see repeat viewings of the movie with the 3-D version being equally sought-after," Nandu Ahuja of Eros International Media Ltd said.
Even before the release, the makers had sold television broadcasting rights, reportedly, for Rs 40 crore, distribution rights for Rs 77 crore, while music rights were bought by T-Series for Rs 15 crore.
Ra.One was always meant for Limited Audience.. It has done exceptionally well. ROBOT was morover like a story based movie and Ra.One was a concept based movie.. Even it is called as Desi Super Hero, it is not completely INDIAN movie.. Indian audience is still not matured enough to watch movies like Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna or Ra.One.. Still Bodyguard and DON 2 works in this country.. I bet DON 2 will be a successful movie becuase we indians like such movies..
