Mumbai, June 07: RAAJNEETI has achieved the second highest opening weekend collections in the history of Indian cinema. 3 IDIOTS holds the record for the highest opening weekend but we need to bear in mind that it opened on a Christmas Friday and Monday too was a bank holiday.
At Rs. 33-35 cr Net Box Office Collections on its opening weekend (which is equivalent to approximately Rs. 50 cr Gross Box Office), this puts the film in a position to achieve record collections in the course of its theatrical run, especially as there is no big movie scheduled for release the next weekend, giving RAAJNEETI an uninterrupted 14 day solo theatrical run.
Overseas as well, the opening weekend has been excellent. In fact in Australia and the UK, the film took a higher opening on Friday than 3 IDIOTS.
