Fastest to 100 crores: Dhoom 3 beats Chennai Express

Aamir Khan’s Dhoom 3 has become the fastest film to collect Rs 100 crores at the domestic box office. The Hindi version of the film has crossed the 100 crore net mark in just 3 days.

Dhoom 3 has beaten Chennai Express which collected around 93.5 crore in 3 days, but crossed the 100 crore mark including paid previews. But the biggest difference between the two films is – Chennai Express had three holidays (Saturday was a holiday in parts of the country), but Dhoom 3 released during a non-holiday weekend with only one holiday on Sunday.

Other films that have collected 100 crore or more in less than a week are – Krrish 3, Ek Tha Tiger, Dabangg 2, Bodyguard and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.

  • @nipun you are asking everywhere who is the coolest,sexiest villian of dhoom, i know you want to telling about John and i agree with you, basically you were try hard to pretend that srk and Aamir is your 2nd fav, but you are even more insecure with success of ce & d3 both, this mean you are only an hritik fan so justbe which you are, if you like Aamir or srk you won’t be jealous, take an example of mine Salman is my 2nd most favourite actor, i had watched ett 2 time in theatre and i liked the movie, though i though this not deserve to beat 3I but still i was happy when it come very close and broken almost every record except 3I, i was expecting and want that Dabangg2 will break 3I unfortunately the movie is not good.and i will be very happy if Jai ho or kick will break D3 records unlike you.

    Hritik fans taking credit of Dhoom franchise success for his Idol Hritihik, but its surprising to see Hr was part of KMG,krissh and Krissh3, there was not a change of director or hero in the film but still it is not great franchise which it should be, as HR made the Dhoom successful on his own.
    so funny what interesting 3 non-popular actor Abhi,Uday & john started the Dhoom film with a debutant director Sanjay Gadhvi and made it complete hit by their own with limited promotion. then comes Dhoom2 which was conbributed well by Hrithik (result HR fan thinking Dhoom is nothing without him)
    the best thing of Dhoom3 supersuccess that it shwos Mirror to HR fans that Dhoom is YRF franchise and it success only due to them neither by john or HR alone.
    Aamir stardom given it historic start, but still i feel that whole credit of this success is mostly belong to John,Abhi & uday who given us super cool Dhoom.Bravo and kudos to them.

    moral: with D3 supersuccess it is crystal clear hr is contributer of dhoom2 success but it is itself a big brand who also contributed for HR stardom. Aamir proves that.

  • @isml ok my heart broken lungiwala friend please calm down- we will give John, Esha, Uday, Bipasha, Aish, Tata Young, Rimi, Sanjay, Hritic and Junior Bachchan all the credit for the super unprecedented success of Dhoom 3 provided you state for the record that the Biggest Contributing Factor in Crappy Express’ undeserving success was the ‘Chennai Depress’ train…???

    Will you do that…? Ooops I forgot also credit must be given to the 1234 flying cars and slso to Rajni Sir for showing great restraint for not filing a FIR against makers for associating his image with that crappy offensive slanderish lungi wala song…!!!!

  • SRK fans seem to be too logical and rationale when they try to prove why SRK is the best or his films are successful. However, when it comes to other actors, they lose it. They become completely absurd and deluded…
    Of course, Dhoom 3 is on its way to become the biggest grosser of Bollywood partly because of being a popular franchise. At the same time, they should appreciate Aamir for being able to successfully pull off such a challenging role.
    So far as SRK’s popularity in overseas is concerned, SRK fans like to solely credit SRK for his popularity (of course, SRK deserves the credits) and obviously fail to credit YRF Banner (that has made SRK a brand) and Dharma Production with their huge marketing channel overseas.
    Another example, CE was a blockbuster. But has any SRK fan credited Rohit Shetty (famous for churning out blockbuster after a blockbuster)? Tell me when SRK had given his last blockbuster before CE (in India). Yet, SRK fans fail to give due credits to others, here, Rohit Shetty! To me, SRK fans are deluded and lack rationale thinking!

    Guys, accept some reality today no matter what.

    1) Aamir Khan, the King of the Movies with Quality
    2) Salman Khan, the Numero Uno Star in India
    3) SRK, still the King in Overseas Boxoffice
    4) Akshay Kumar, the King of Stamina and Self-made Superstar (though SRK, too, was an outsider to Bollywood, he had bollywood connections through Gauri, Salim Khan family and others. He got lucky to get chance to work with YRF.)
    5) Ajay Devgn, the King of Acting (Don’t Go for his Look.)
    6) Hrithik Roshan, a Guy with Talent and the King of Dance (without his father, his story would be different today).
    7) Govinda, the most under-rated Multitalented Actor
    8) Shahid Kapur, the most side-lined Talented Actor in his Generation
    9) Emraan Hashmi, an under-rated Star and the King of Adult Category Films
    10) Aditya R Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor, Sushant S Rajput, Arjun Kapoor, Imran Khan, Varun Dhanwan etc- the Future Superstars and Too Early to Comment on their remaining aspects.
