Krrish 3 beats Chennai Express, sets single day record

Krrish 3With Krrish 3, the odds were stacked heavily against the Roshans. The music was the biggest disaster in recent times for any big-budget film, the song promos weren’t really impressive and the release date wasn’t ideal either. The inevitable and unfair comparisons with Hollywood superhero films meant that Krrish 3, made on a humongous budget, was one of the riskiest films ever produced.

But like with their earlier films like Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish.. the Roshans have reigned  supreme at the box office yet again!

Krrish 3 has destroyed the opening day business of Shahrukh Khan’s Chennai Express, thereby setting a new single day record. The film has collected Rs 35.91 crore on Monday, surpassing the previous record of Rs 33.12 crore set by Chennai Express on 9th August 2013.

In just 4 days, the Hrithik Roshan starrer has also joined the 100 crore club, the second fastest for any film. This is a massive achievement, considering the fact that Krrish 3 released during the pre-Diwali period. The record for the highest single day collections was set on the 4th day of release, when lakhs of people had already watched the film in theatre!

  • Friday – 25.2 crore
  • Saturday – 23.2 crore
  • Sunday – 24.3 crore
  • Monday – 35.91 crore (holiday)
  • Weekend Total – 108.61 crore (including Tamil and Telugu versions)

  • Hamza Khan.. You make comparisons and say dont make comparisons :D :D

    The only reason Hrithik has two and SRK has four 100 crore grossers is because Hrithik had only two releases since 2011.

    Salman has 5 :D

  • breaking single day collection has become a joke now in domestic market.srk,salman,aamir,hritik,ranbir these top superstar can break single day record with huge number of screen and holiday release.but breaking srk records in overseas is not a joke. aamir challenged him 4 only one time in his career by 3i.
    k3 collected only 24.3 cr in 3 day which not even half of ce(51 cr).it also failed to cross mnik(29 cr) and talaash(27 cr) also.
    @indicine can k3 join in 100 cr club in overseas with 3i,mnik and ce?

  • @neeru wrong.
    raone had to make 150 cr to break even which it didnt
    nyways its not abt profit which is depended on budget…its abt collection which depends
    most on star power

    n for those sayin most if ce recds are safe
    yes they are but the most imp one having the highest reliance on star power is destroyed

    • @Romance New_yr, we have been deleting most of your comments in the last couple of days. Please stop posting nonsense. The Tamil / Telugu version has collected only 1.2 crore on Monday.

  • For all the geniuss sayin that coz of paid preview ce collection was not 40 cr
    well krrish 3 had full 3 days of paid preview n still beat ce comfortably
    i mean it wasn’t even a fight

  • I predicted after agneepath that whtever recd of single day collection any of the 3 khans will set between now n krrish 3 will be broken by hr

    n boy wasn’t i exactly right

  • Some Idiot people comparing Krrish 3’s collection with CE and saying stupid things……they should remember CE has Three days consecutive Holiday due to Eid. Krrish 3 released on working day and pre-Dipawali festival still it collected record collection. If it had released on 4th Nov (Holiday), ofcourse it would have collected more than 40 cr. despite it has broken CE record. Kudos Krrish 3 Team and Fans…

    @KG – You Idiot….think before comment….80% Hindu what it means…..you think 20% Muslim only watch Khan’s movie and give them record and strardom….It’s India and we Indian or Hindu (people living beside Sindu River) always believe in Humanity not in the name of religion…that’s the reason Indian is the 2nd Most Populated Muslim country in entire world and among 54 Islamic Country….

  • Indicine.com ?@indicine via twitter

    #Krrish3 very good today. Better than weekend in North. Advance booking is good even at places where its a working day. Should be 20 cr+

  • indicine please tell me 2 years back when RA.One released all the websites counted only hindi version. now in case of Krrish 3 you are counting on all the versions! why this type of partiality?? please tell me indicine

  • @Suniel jii, Ha Ha ;D Yeh a tiny reminder to stop demeaning SRK . . Smart people like you need to get the hint lol.

  • @ Hatred New Year: As per you – 1st day collection held by ETT. And as per BOI 202 crores in 2009 broken by CE in 2013 by Rs. 6 crores only. All the records will be shattered.

  • @ indicine why dont you post hindi collection also m sure from 35.91 sure 3.5 may tamil/ telugu so CE & ETT single day hindi record still safe…its not about khans,kapur or roshans…its truth and reality is about hindi only

  • sorry srk guys…..juhi’s husband holds 52% of shares in red chillies.. so whole credit of red chillies goes to chawla’s husband…. ;)

  • Congrats krrish3.. Way to gooo.. Arnd 36 crore on 4th day is just amazing!! I had predicted that krrish 3 myt break 1 record set by CE.. Highest single day.. And it has hpnd!! But i thot it wud happen on 2nd day not on 4th.. Lets c how it trends during weekdays now.. But frankly i still dont think K3 will beat any other major CE record leave apart lifetime.. Lets wait n watch

  • I am happy for this even i am a srk fan.salman fans do you know the 2nd fastest 100cr record of Ett also broken by k3 so pls stop bark against srkians.

  • In south india hrithik >>>>>>> shahrukh khan. If c.e. will release in telugu, tamil versions it would not collect 2 crs net because shahrukh does not have craze like Hrithik in south india example r.one collections in telugu and tamil versions.

  • This year is full of surprises :
    1.aashiqui2 exp-below 20 but real 80
    2.yjhd exp-below 100 but real 190
    3.chennai express exp-below 150 but real 225
    4.Ouatimd exp-150 but real below 65
    5.grand mast exp-40 but real 100
    6.Besharam exp-150 but real below 55
    7.boss exp-150 but real below 55
    now krrish3 exp-160 but real will be 250
    then there is dhoom3 exp-250 but if surprise can below 150

  • Hurray, so finally k3 get its due, very well deserving movie, if it collect 35cr+ on opening day or next day than for me its not great because now a days every big movie which have A list actor and so much hype on holiday can collect highest nos on opening day with increase in ticket price and no. of screens but in the case of K3 its special because this record come into kitty of K3 on its 4th day this is outstanding its shows that movie got positive wom and appreciated by audience, hope it will collect more than 200cr, because this movie deserves this.
    hats off to K3 Team specially Roshan sr. & jr.
    its proved again after Agneepath and K3 that present time after Khan trio only HR & RK is capable to bring audience in big chunk into theatres, Hr shown his power again and loved to see he got his due. for me he is next perfect star after Aamir, the best thing of K3 that first time we seen Rohit & Krishna in many scene together but one thing can’t come into my mind that both character is playing by One actor, that itself is big achievement. Bravo.

    and according to BOI K3 4th day collection for Hindi lang. is 31.5 cr and if we include 2.5 cr for regional than its about 34cr so no big difference in collection this time. So haters i think its sufficient for you all.

  • I don’t why it does not seem believable to me. I amnot really against k3 but it’s boxoffice figures look fake.
    If the film cross 1000crore as said by rakesh roshan ,I will neither be surprised nor will believe.
    *****salman khan may be watch a lot starpluse serials along with crap remake movie,they are so good at making fight between fans unreasonably.
    Since when have u started liking rittik so much?
    And ritttik fans u are fooling by them,they can never like a great actor like rittik?
    **Now, srk is at top, that is why u are supporting him. It’s fine.. Hey,salman khan fans be careful,if by mistake u start liking rittik ‘s quality movie, then u will be unable to watch or favstar’s crapmovie.

  • All hro fans,mind one thing.ce released in 3500 screens bt k3 in 4100 screens.an ce surpass 100 cr club in jst 3 days(including paid preview),which record yet unbroken,opening day,2nd day and 3rd day record yet unbroken.jst single day record has broken,this due to huge screen count(600 screen more).k3 is one of the hyped movie of the year coz its presequel krrish.nd this is nt a huge achivement of hro fans,227 cr nd 422 cr india nd worldwide resply record are in ce’s credit.all the best for k3 nd hro fan,k3 deserves 250 cr if nt then its bad luck.any way record meant to be broken,

  • Rittik is my second favourite I m fully aware if his stardom that’s why i think it does not seem believable to me. I amnot really against k3 but it’s boxoffice figures look fake.
    If the film cross 1000crore as said by rakesh roshan ,I will neither be surprised nor will believe.

Hey,salman khan fans be careful,if by mistake u start liking rittik ‘s quality movie, then u will be unable to watch ur favstar’s crapmovie.if suddenly sk fans have started liking quality movie, one thing sure salman will have box office disaster coming year ahead.
