From Kashmir all the way down to Kanyakumari, Shahrukh Khan’s Chennai Express is on a record-breaking spree across the country. The morning shows and noon shows on Sunday were on-par or better at places compared to Friday.
The film is outstanding in circuits like Tamilnadu/Kerala, Mysore, West Bengal and Mumbai. Major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Noida, Kolkata are recording exceptionally good occupancy between 85 – 95% throughout the day.
Chennai Express should comfortably cross the 30 crore mark and now has a good chance of joining the ‘100 crore club’ today. The record for the ‘Highest Sunday Collections’ in 2013 is currently held by Ranbir Kapoor’s Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (22.5 crore). Salman Khan’s Dabangg 2 with 23 crores on Sunday holds the overall record. Both are likely to be history tomorrow.
The Post-Eid period is proving to be one of the biggest holiday seasons for the film industry. Every film that has released in the last 4 years – Dabangg, Bodyguard, Ek Tha Tiger and now Chennai Express – have taken record-shattering starts.
UPDATE 8PM Update: Sunday collections are likely to be in excess of Rs 32 crore. Usually, Business does tend to drop during the night shows as Monday is a working day. So far though, it has been a super Sunday in every circuit across India.
Hahaha poor srkians forget salman’s romantic saga like MPK,Hahk were atbbs, tragedy movie tere naam was hit, hssh,hddcs,saajan were big hits, apart from Cdi tell me other srk experimented movie which became blockbuster forget bb tell me which was superhit, mnik hit and ra one avg but called hit due to some unknown reason, swades flop,paheli flop so called big buzzed don,devdas and don2 was hits not superhit while during the time of mnik,paheli,don1,swades srk was at his prime. So dear srkians even so called king was also failed big many time. Forget to mention epic Asoka that was also big flop.
i bet if it can cross 180-crores
moreover srk flops are unaccountable and salman makeover all his flops in 6 years check the history of box office collection and talk
Don’t underestimate the power of srk
actually dabangg 2 collected 25 cr over sunday. when it comes to salman’s movies you give the figures of BOI india which are low and you give figures of tharan adarsh for srk’s movies which are higher. why so biased?
@r20….has any one stopped ur akki not to hike the ticket prices?? or using any other tactics????stop crying man……..chennai express is thrashing all records and u shud accept it…..don’t burn urself after seeing the fully paced phase of srk…..bcoz king always remains a king….
@beingsallufan….bro…there is a mental checkup organized for all salman fans funded by “being human”…so perhaps they r attending that session….after that, definitely they will come with those “so-called” bookmarks and will show to us…;-)
@aks….stop writing long essays on each page…..ur essays r not making any sense….go and wait for “mental”…..now we r enjoying the grand success of ce, so let us enjoy…..we don’t want to bash or thrash anyone in this season of rejoice….so don’t propel us to take any unparliamenetry action towards u…:P
jokes apart, it’s ok yaar….just chill…..though i can sense, that its hard for u guys to accept that all the records made by ur sallu in last 3 yrs were thrashed by srk in a very single moment….but it happens buddy…so take a chill pill….lol..
Is there anyone in the world who watched Chennai express 7 times till sunday and planing to go tomorrow? IF NOT, Then Iam the biggest fan of SRK in the world!
indicine is any chance to collect to more than friday
indicine got so busy promoting chennai express that they forgot to mention that a brilliant film bhaag milkha bhaag finally crossed 100 cr which is a milestone. well farhan doesn’t pay media, but big stars like srk does. so…
so EID has yet again proven that it can make anyone KING! from last 4 Years EID Blessed SALMAN KHAN and now it has given SHAHRUKH KHAN his lost superstardom ALL SHOULD BE THANKFUL to EID..

Aamir will break this record just like he broke OSO’s record with Ghajini! 100 cr is gud job but next 2 weeks even 50 cr will not be possible
Folks, Chennai Express is a tawdry spectacle that only a crass Indian filmmaker would put out, only an aging Indian superstar would feature in and only a classless Indian audience with an abundant appetite for trash would delight in.
It’s a miracle I still retain my sanity after watching this steaming pile of dung.
For a film that keeps reiterating, “Don’t underestimate the common man,” it does precisely that, displaying unqualified disdain for the audience’s capacity to discriminate between intelligent self-referencing and lazy writing.
Shah Rukh Khan claims he’s 40 and Deepika Padukone chides him suggesting he looks 50, but what he’s really saying is, “I’m still the loveable, cognac-eyed, dimpled brat of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and am going to show you how little I’ve evolved over the last two decades.”
SRK tries to do an Aamir Khan by lecturing his prospective in-law about how to treat women and asserts, “It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.” Here I was merely expecting him to sing “I’m the best” and get done with it.
You could play spot the reference and pass the time when things got tedious––which was much of the 140 minutes running time, barring a few laughs in the first half––chiefly DDLJ (the entire climax, but several other minor scenes too) and Singham (minus its underlying thematic righteousness), plus badly sung versions of old SRK numbers.
In days to come, figures will fly fast and furious with fans mindlessly flocking to the theatre and emerging zombie-like, spouting inanities about the film’s ‘time-pass’ value.
SRK and Shetty will proclaim that petty critics don’t understand cinema and are merely jealous of their success before flying off into the sunset towards IIFA where SRK will play host, dance to hit numbers from CE and win several awards, while Shetty will plan the next two sequels to CE, alongside Golmaal 4 and Singham 2. Filmfare will institute a new award in his honour for the most number of 100-crore hits; naturally, he’ll be its first recipient and will receive it from (who else) SRK !!
Gud 4 the industry but to be very honest movie mee dum nahi hai boss…
Those who liked chennai express are human being and those who hates it are being humans

Each every records will create by the khans and broken by the khans, so just chil n enjoy.

“Srk prooved what he is capable of doing if he does Masala movie mostly Salman do!”…..But I really want some great acting skilled flicks as he did in “Swades and in Chak de!”….
Chennai express Break fails
now it will run fast more and create new records
romance express: its becoz muslim don’t watch non muslim actors movie in theater. muslim only watch khans movies. but hindus r liberal. they also watch khans movies. so its obvious khans will break record easily.
“RECORD EXPRESS” oh i cant believe this in just 2 days it crossed 100 cr. Mark in worldwide and now in domestic alone it crossed 100 cr. in just 3 days did u believe dat dont you. This is what happen when king takes masala movies this is all king khan’s power . If this movie is taken by other actor like ajay dvgn as usually rohit does or any lallu khan iam sure dat it will not cross even 10cr. In weekend
this is all b’coz of king SRK he shows his stardom and he deserves it so all lallu fans plz check it out bro. SRK ROCKzzzz…..
Iam proud to be a SRKian u too………!
Huh lallu sallu wil be crying in his house hahaha poor lallu (ek tha bandar)
he he he he he . haters burning inside. putting their frustration on indicine
@I love SRK: dude grow up. don’t be a kiddo. another of cribbing and crying SALMAN fan. when SRK was experimenting his movies not concentrating on boxoffice success. where were u.
when he was doing MNIK ,JTHJ where were u
but still kudos to the king he still scored with his release over 100 crores.
Where were u when lallu sallu wasnt experimenting and giving masala movies only in search of boxoffice success
now when KING SRK did one masala movie and he destroyed decimated re wrote all the records
Ur puny sense with no morality has stood up.
sincere advice: go watch the movie and bask in the success of CHENNAI EXPRESS
THIS JUST PROVES ONE THING
SRK CAN EXCEL WITH ANY KIND OF MOVIE
HE IS THE MOST VERSATILE ACTOR INDIA HAS EVER PRODUCED
CAN GIVE BOXOFFICE SUCCESS AS WELL AS BEST MOVIE
I wasnt surprised to see these figures because it is possible for such a megastar like Srk to achieve this feat but yes it took him long time but he hits the bulls eye So its time for experiment again like swades
Finally “Deserve your Desires”-To all Srk Fans
Enjoy each and every record broken by chennai express live in this moment enjoy to this fullest and have party Go to movie again and again contribute your part in promoting Chennai Express
Note:Dont react on haters comments just show your love and peek performance of boxoffice figures and Dont waste by bashing haters because its declared what was the status of the film
—————————————————From a diehard dedicated Hrithik Roshan Fan
What will haters do now? LOL! CE is tearing through the box office! Congratulations SRK, DPad and Rohit Shetty!
No one can stop this express becoz it’s driven by shahrukh, buit by rohit shetty and the beautiful conductor deepika padukone. It will create a new record!!!
