PK Overseas Box Office Collections crosses Rs 200 crore mark!

Aamir Khan is competing with himself in the overseas markets, as his most recent release ‘PK’ has beaten his 2013 release Dhoom 3 and also become the first Indian film to cross the Rs 200 crore mark overseas.

When the film first released during Christmas 2014, it collected $26.32 million (Rs 167.1 crore). Now with the Rajkumar Hirani film getting a wide release in China, it has collected $5.31 million (Rs 33.7 crore) in its first weekend.

The total overseas business now stands at a record-shattering $31.63 million (Rs 200.8 crore). In 2013, Dhoom 3 collected Rs $31.08 million overseas. Aamir also holds the record for the 3rd highest grossing overseas film – $25.9 million gross collections of 3 Idiots! My Name Is Khan ($23.5 million) and Chennai Express ($18.95 million) comes 4th and 5th respectively.

Apart from these 5 films and Happy New Year, no other film has even crossed the 100 crore mark in markets outside India.

Widely known as the ‘Founder of the 100 crore (Ghajini), 200 crore (3 Idiots) and 300 crore club (PK)’ in India, Aamir Khan has now achieved the remarkable feat of becoming the first actor to cross Rs 200 crore overseas.

PK could add another 40-45 crore to its overseas total and if it does so, it could be the first film to gross Rs 700 crore worldwide!

  • Awesome. 33.7 crore in 3 days! Hny lifetime there was just 1.68 crore.
    Ace of bollywood Aamir rocks! Truely the King of overseas.

  • it’s all coz of Hirani & Christmas.. Aamir Khan’s talaash even failed to cross even 11 years old K3G in overseas….!!

  • BB will break all the record especially os record of pk. Salman is king of overseas and india

  • Congrats to Aamir.He’s been consistent and doing great movies off late.But he still has a long way to go to dethrone Srk as the overseas king.What Srk has achieved in overseas arena no other actor can even think of.Hope Fan and raees which would certainly be great movies does wonders just like his previous movies

  • and ‘MNIK became the first ever 100cr overseas movie’ in a dull date.. with out Christmas & Hirani… that’s the power of an actor..

    ‘Top 7 biggest hits ever of Bollywood in Overseas’ (acc to average per site ) are Still SRK’s movies.. & none will be able to break that record except SRK.. forget about after 2010 born stars.

  • So what.. SRK’s ‘MNIK’ was the first ever 100cr overseas movie’ in a dull date.. with out Christmas & Hirani….!!

  • i meant to say SRK’s ‘MNIK’ became the first ever 100cr overseas movie in a dull date.. with out Christmas, huge free run, festival & Hirani….!!

  • Aamir’s Talaash without brand and without Christmas= $ 9 million
    Srk’s Don 2 with Huge brand and on Christmas= $11 million
    If Talaash released on Christmas, it would have beaten Don 2 very easily. Shame on small star srk.

  • @iamAKN, MNIK was due to power of KJo director of legendary KKHH! Without him SRK is a fail in overseas.

  • Wow Mr.Perfectionist,you’re just wow!
    Some fools here are ignoring the fact that Talaash being a dark neo noir mystery thriller was a hit and a super hit in India and overseas respectively.This was not your regular masala or a typical boy girl romantic flick.I still remember how his so called 3.7 billion fans rejected his good movies like Swades and Paheli.Bhaiya tab sare 3.7 billion fans Mars chale gaye the jo films flop karwa di?Even Don2,JTHJ,HNY were not big blockbusters.Talaash still has an IMDb rating of 7.3 with 23k votes.

  • i don’t know why talash could not collect
    200 crore in overseas…. ???
    oops becoz it waz not raju’s movie…lolsss !
    talash is the best example..
    aamir without raju and dhoom brand cannot cross 100 crore forget 200 crore…!
    only his south remake ” ghajni ” did 100 crore club not ever since then….!!!

  • @ bajrangi, wait for bb it will collect 300 crore in domistic and 250 crore in overseas
    gross – 700 crore worldwide
    ” Don’t underestimate the power of criminal bhai lol ! ”
    ofcourse in 2020 .

  • This mega opening is only due to Legend Aamir Khan. He doesnt depend on YRF/dharma to give hit in overseas like some unknown actor called srk.

  • LOL.. as always srk insecure, jealous fans started crying..
    They r still living in 90’s.. Aamir films have always done well at b.o.. MP did more than swades, paheli.. Fanaa was BB did more than Don.. Tzp did more than cdi.. Ghajini almost same as yrf rnbdj.. 3i did more than mnik.. PK,D3,3i.. All time grossers

  • Amir is ahead of srk in oversease at present due to the unexpected business of dhoom3 n pk #fact, if salman khan did dhoom3, pk n 3i then salman also overtake srk in oversease like amir. But without raju hirani n dhoom brand which amir film cross $10million mark in oversease? Ans: zero, atleast a masala film like dabangg2 did $9 million in oversease n srk massala film ce n hny did 100cr in oversease if amir did those then it go like talash way. The main fact is amir is nothing without hirani in oversease, in fact lage raho munna bhai did more business than talash in oversease

  • Srk easily overtake amir in oversease after the release of fan, dilwale, raees as all of them have potential to cross 150cr in oversease my pick raees may cross 200cr in oversease but dangal panday even not beat kANK ovesease record n with out hirani amir is big zero in oversease

  • Srk is the most popular actor in oversease.
    Deepika/kajol is the most popular actress in oversease.
    Raju Hirani is the most popular director in oversease.

  • LOL.. as always srk insecure, jealous fans started crying..first ask ur idol to break 6 year old record of 3i… Except dharma karan , kajol’s mnik srk films struggle to do even 15m$..
    Srk fans taking about hirani,xmas,brand..blah blah blah.. But they never talk about biggest production house yrf , yash chopra,karan,adi..who made srk in overseas.. #Hypocrites

    Why cdi,paheli,ashoka,dil se,billu,12ka4,heyram off beat movies failed in overseas?
    And didn’t don2 released on x-mas in overseas a franchise? Kya ukhaad liya.. Eid is not a festive release in uk,uae, pak? Hypocrites
