Is '3 Idiots' a must watch movie?
Aamir
Khan starrer comedy-drama "3 Idiots" has created a record by grossing
over Rs.100 crore in its first four days. Reliance BIG Entertainment,
distributor of the film, released about 2,000 prints across 40 countries.
Based on Chetan Bhagat's bestseller "Five Point Someone", the film
has been produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and directed by Rajkumar Hirani.
"We are privileged to have been associated with '3 idiots' and its
immensely talented team led by Vinod, Aamir and Raju. The ramp-up to Rs. 100
crore in 4 days is phenomenal and we are confident that the film will continue
to blaze new records in the weeks to come,"
"Response has been overwhelming from all over the world. Aamir, Raju and I
knew from the responses earlier on that people liked the film but this is
something else? We have got reports from places like Australia that they have
reduced 'Avatar' shows and increased ours."
"'3 Idiots' is the highest grossing Hindi film ever in Australia on its
opening weekend. Similarly in the US, I have been given to understand that '3
Idiots' would be highest ever for a Hindi film,"
The paid previews of the movie also garnered over Rs.9 crore worldwide, above
those of the paid preview collections of "Ghajini" that was Rs.7
crore globally. The film, which reportedly
cost Rs.80-100 crore, also stars R. Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, Boman Irani and
Kareena Kapoor in pivotal roles.
