Om Shanti Om |
Eros International announces an unprecedented opening of Shah Rukh Khan's Om Shanti Om, produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and directed by Farah Khan. The film opened to rave reviews and advance bookings on the 9th of November. It has since grossed over US $19 million worldwide in its first week, making it the most successful opening in Indian cinema history.
OSO released across 1,400 plus screens globally. For the first time it saw screenings as early as 7:45 am, at certain multiplexes in India. This makes it one of the most anticipated films in recent times.
OSO's staggering first week gross collections of US $13.5 million in India made it the best ever opening there. The figures overseas are no less remarkable with the film grossing $1.5 million at the UK box office and over $2 million in North America in its first week. With as many as 14-16 shows planned daily in its second week at some multiplexes, Eros International is looking forward to an excellent run of King Khan's film offering. |
