Box Office Hit in Dhoom 2

Dhoom 2 is still in the top chart of Bollywood in its seventh weekend. This Blockbuster movie was released in November 24, 2006. This Yash Raj production has made a boom in the screens after its release in both India and abroad. The craze created for the movie is something that can make nay producer happy. This action based thriller has created a hymn in its action scenes, music and dancing style. The technological ideas used in the movie also played an important role behind its success. The movie still stands in the third position in the top chart. Regarding the huge success of the movie Dhoom 2 I am stating some lines from different sources:

One India wrote:


In a matter of 4 weeks, Dhoom:2 has turned into the biggest money spinner of all times. But that hasn't deterred Yash Raj Films from keeping the pace of film's promotion alive.

D:2 official site reported:

There was unquestionable elation as a result of the staggering opening of ‘Dhoom 2′ at the domestic box-office and also beyond the shores of india.

The film had a record-shattering start everywhere, deflating the rest of the marketplace and effectively rewriting the box-office record book.

Also, the film set first-day records at several stations, including places where House Full boards are a rarity. in Mumbai, the first week figures are expected to be gigantic because of the record number of shows (16/18/20/2 shows at multiplexes), every single day, due to cent percent occupancy and also thanks to the inflated ticket rates.


The first week billing is expected to be at an all-time high, with Yashraj Films laughing all the way to the bank, yet again.

Wikipedia writes:

The movie had a very successful opening both in India and overseas. It earned a whopping of about Rs 85 crore that is approximately USD $1,500,000 overseas.

The movie is also doing very well in both in USA and UK and after passing seven weeks the movie is still getting houseful in both countries. The movie stands in the second position in USA among the Bollywood movies in the last weekend (sevenths weekend for Dhoom 2). In UK the movie is still in the fifth position among the Bollywood movies in the last weekend. I am quoting some lines from a Indiafm report:

U.K. Box Office:

DHOOM 2 [last weekend: No. 32, this weekend: No. 44]: In its seventh weekend, the film has collected £ 2,496 on 3 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 832. Total: £ 1,168,354 [approx. Rs. 10.06 crores].

USA Box Office:

DHOOM 2 [last weekend: No. 45, this weekend: No. 66]: In its seventh weekend, the film has collected $ 6,512 on 9 screens, with the per screen average working out to $ 724. Total: $ 2,642,290 [approx. Rs. 11.74 crores].

The movie has showed its specialty and this is the third blockbuster sequel movie after ‘Krrish’, ‘Lage Raho Munna Bhai’ and Dhoom 2 is also one of the three successful action movie in 2006 including Krrish, Don. I think the movie has many aspects to be a special one as it involves some superb action scenes and some spectacular dancing styles. Then, that kissing scene?!
