Highest Distributor Share: Chennai Express tops

Chennai Express has topped the list of Highest Distributor Share of all time, and has also become the first film to cross the 120 crore mark. The Shahrukh Khan starrer is followed by Ek Tha Tiger (112 crore) and 3 Idiots (99 crore).

The film has proved to be hugely profitable for all involved – producers (Red Chillies), distributors (UTV), individual distributors (UTV sold the theatrical rights for all circuits except Mumbai and Delhi/UP at a high price to individual distributors) and not to mention the exhibitors too.

And we aren’t even talking about the overseas collections here! ALL TIME BLOCKBUSTER.

  • @CErocks. Bro I bet that day ll never come when a single movie will re write all records. these illiterate retards had challenged tsunami express to cross ready collections.
    never ll these distributors records also broken.
    the only one who can better these is when SRK comes with another tsunami called happy New year next diwali and I hope Don3 on Eid 2015

  • Chennai express broke all existing records, no records stands infornt of ce, just one record remaining, 3i worldwide col 392cr and we hope ce will be the 1st film which enter historical 400cr club. Waiting for the last record, ce will do it, best of luck.

  • @ sumit Looking today’s inflation 99 crores in 2009 is very big achievement. 3idiots is heart touch movie. But if you watch CE with your family you will not enjoy but they will definately because it is pure desi film with all green desi location which does not content vulgerity,non sense. Thought it has not a strong content like 3idiots but still entertaining. Just like u can’t compare 3idiots with CE like wise u can not compare 3idiot with DDLJ, HAHk, lagaan,Tare Zamin par, Swades, RDB, wednesday many more…..

  • “Chennai Express” is now unstoppable despite being reduced to 1050 screens. Film grew yesterday around 70% which is out of the world in 3rd weekend. Film was superb today once again almost all over and that is really amazing.

    As per early estimates, film should collect 4.90 cr nett today which means film has collected close to 211.18 cr nett. Film will finish with 10.50 -11 cr nett 3rd weekend collection. Film should add 5-6 cr nett more on weekdays and that means 16-17 cr nett 3rd week similar to “3 Idiots”.

    Film looks to stay in cinemas for next few weeks and will keep adding some important numbers which will make this highest earning record tougher for future releases.

    Now film is chasing last record on offering which is worldwide gross 391-395 cr of “3 Idiots”. Film has already crossed 387cr gross and 400 cr gross looks certain.

  • Shahrukh Khan Rocks and Chennai Express Biggest Hit of the decade with these distributors share it indicate that chennai express is an All Time Blockbuster

  • So ce tops everywhere.great. .

    @indicine:
    in 2012,though ett,rr were big grossers,but kahani,barfi,vicky donor,english vinglish were regarded as best. .
    So what about this year?which movies can be the best?
    So i request you to add another article about that.

  • if shahrukh movie can collect 200 crore then salman movie will definitely collect more than shahrukh next year.

  • cong srk fans for the success of ce
    eventually srk achieved record what sallu bhai had achieved way back in 1994 with hahk .
    that is the highest grosser of all time of bollywood.
    but hahk record was sustained for 8 years but i dont think ce record would be there for even 3 months .

  • Distributors of two circuits faced losses vit ra.one..but the same happened vit dabangg 2..distributors of 2 or 3 circuits faced loss as the distribution rights wer sold at very high price..

  • when srk talked about quality haters say records,when srk talked about class haters say rrcords.Noe he had broken every record and u r dead now.Fact is SRK was,is and will be king.

  • just one big blockbuster n srk is king.. then wat would we call salman who has 5 blockbusters in a row including one all time blockbuster.. i guess king is too small a word to describe salman khan

  • Boi is trying hard to keep 3 idiots records intact. Boi is anti srk. First they did with jthj now ce. Differences r very high around 20 cr betn producers nd distributors numbers for these 2 film. They want to prove their comentory right. They said besharam will break opening and lifetime records. They became joke when ce broke both records. There is 7 cr diff for YJHD and no difference for talash, 11 cr diff for ett and 6 cr different for dabang2. Boi is under reporting collections of srk’s movies just trying to prove that they r more authentic using srk’s name.

  • boxofficeindia had posted Rs.186 cr at end of 2nd week breaking record of ETT. Today they have posted earning of 3rd weekend Rs.9.5 Net totalling Rs.194 cr ! instead of 195.5 cr or 196 cr approx. Could not undertstand why they are mis-calculating

  • By Taran Adarsh
    Became the highest grosser of Hindi cinema on Friday [3rd Week] and continued its momentum during the weekend.

Grand total: Rs 211.03 cr. All Time Blockbuster.

  • Two Khans (Salman + Aamir) k liay akaila KING KHAN kafi hai. Dono ne dosti ka dhong racha k 4 years main itni mushkil se records banae thay KING KHAN nai aik IKKAY se dono ko Chitt kar dia. King ki aik Talwar se dono Lomrian khatam. KING ki aik ball pe dono clean bold. Well done KING KHAN.
    U r KING of Kings.

  • When he was Doing Classy Movies like Chak De India,My Name Is Khan and Swadesh Haters Talk about Records
    and Now When He did Masala Movie and Destroyed all The Records then Haters Talk about Class……
    It happens Everytime some People are very very Jelous of Srk’s Success…..
    Just Wanna say God Bless them

  • Boi is the anti khans site thats why taalash and race2 will do profit but boi declear semi hit. Srk film lifetime col less than 20cr acc to boi, but ce break 3i record acc to boi also.

  • Dhoom 3 director the same who directed a crap movie named TASHAN
    But what the self proclaimed ace khan can change in the movie is his hair style, and yeah no mustaches. .. that is all he is able to do since dil chahta hai..

  • Ram Gopal Verma @RGVzoomin tweeted:
    Congratulations Rohit Shetty & SRK for dumping Mughl-e-Azam, Sholay, DDLJ & 3 Idiots etc by the tracks and speeding indian cinema ahead on Chennai Express.

    Sanjay Gupta @_SanjyGupta tweeted:
    The Marketing, Promotions and Distribution of Chennai Express should be taught in Media Institutions & Business Schools.

  • Many dogs barked that this phase of bollywood will mark the end of king’s era and reign.But even those dogs know that SRK’s dynasty is where the sun never sets.Only passing clouds try to decrease the illumination.In the best phase of his career,salman couldn’t break CE’s record.Whereas SRK in his so-called ‘bad days’ proved his mettle.He exactly showed what he is & what he can be.Now bloody dogs,jst stop yelling & barking.
