New Delhi: Salman Khan's winning streak continues with 'Ek Tha Tiger', his James Bond-like spy film spanning exotic locales. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted the overseas figures on Tuesday and they look pretty good.
The opening weekend in Australia was A$ 393,063 (Rs 2.29 crore), New Zealand NZ$ 132,613 (Rs 59.77 lakh), Fiji FJD 52,795 (Rs 16.43 lakh), UK £543,073 (Rs 4.75 crore), USA $1,484,404 (Rs 8.25 crore), UAE $1.22 million (Rs 6.79 crore).
Adarsh said it was the biggest opener of Salman Khan and opened bigger than even his blockbuster 'Bodyguard' overseas.
'Ek Tha Tiger' is also Yash Raj's first film to cross the Rs 100 crore mark and this is Khan's fourth century. He now counts himself among the likes of Aamir Khan and Ajay Devgn whose films have crossed Rs 100 crore nett in collections.
Adarsh tweeted: "Ek Tha Tiger is @BeingSalmanKhan's 4th century (100 cr), the other three being Dabangg (147 crore), Ready (122 crore) and Bodyguard (148 crore)," Adarsh said.
Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ is truly a blockbuster. As expected, the film has already broken many box office records. ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ was released on August 15, 2012 and earned more than Rs 32 crore on the first day itself.
Within just five days of its release, ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ crossed the Rs 100 crore mark, which is a new record. On Eid, ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ made another Rs 20 crore, which is the highest ever Monday figures.
Eid has always proved lucky for Khan. The films he released on Eid have all done exceptionally well. "Ek Tha Tiger Eid festivities begin. Mon to Wed biz will be spectacular, again. Like I said on Thu morning, picture abhi baaki hain...," Adarsh said.
