Chennai Express has grossed Rs 326 crore in just 10 days since its worldwide theatrical release on 8th August, to become the fastest money-spinner of all time. The Shahrukh Khan starrer became only fourth film to cross the 300 crore worldwide mark, after 3 Idiots (385 crore), Ek Tha Tiger (330 crore) and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (310 crore).
Chennai Express will go past Ek Tha Tiger today, but the 385 crore set by Rajkumar Hirani’s 2009 classic could be beyond reach.

In India, Chennai Express has a good chance of crossing the magicial 202 crore figure for the highest grossing domestic film. Overseas, it is likely to take the 3rd spot behind 3 Idiots ($26.1 million) and My Name Is Khan ($23.2 million).

Good. ETT had no competition but Chennai Express has OUATIMD .
Even if now Srk’s “CE” crosses 300 crores but it will be listed as a 3rd 300 crore worlwide movie after Aamir’s “3 idiots” and Salman’s(ETT).
King khan rules the world wide boxoffice since 1995 with no competition :D
he compete with him self out there, No aamir, No salu , just the king SRK :D

Thats why people call Srk – King Of bollywood
Chennai Express Will Beat The Worldwide Gross Of ETT In Its Second Week….. KING ROCKS….
Its dream for salman to cross Srk in overseas
Srk breaking all records of Salman in domestic now
so King will Be King
Indicine…
Can those 7 territories be a good market for bollywood in coming years …?
Indicine…..
More 60 crs form india and 45 crs from overseas is not possible ?
good…..it will definitely go beyond 350cr mark….great going ce…..
in fact, in overseas, srk is his own competition…..no one is even nearby….if we talk about 3 idiot , then it was not more than a fluke….srk’s 7 movies r there in top 10 list..this is enough to shut the mouth of haters….
@sachin11….i m not sure abt 3 idiots…..but ce will definitely cross this 330 cr mark set by ur ett….so come out from ur illusion…..record tod express will break each record…
Srk is right knw ruling the box office.
It is likely to collect 200core in domestic by the end of third week.
Congo to CE!
Nw waiting for his Happy New Year movie!
don’t worry sachin 11, CE will cross your salman bhai ETT’s overseas collection after a week.
@sachin11 Haven’t you already made a fool of yourself enough with OUATIMD’s ‘paid preview’ comments??? Read the article carefully… CE is sure to cross the ETT figure.
No doubt ce break 3i domestic record but its dificult to break oversease record. If srk will do Mnik type film then sure cross 385cr mark. Now ce looking for 350cr mark. The king is back with bang.
it could not reach 202 crores nett in india……
Srk-the acting legend. .and now the box office legend
@sachin11: yes but it will be ahead of your Salman’s(ETT) movie as Second highest grosser of all time.
it could not reach 202 crores nett in india……bt could break ett lifetime…
@sachin11
What happened ? All your predictions proved wrong ? That was certain because you used zero logic and placed your predictions on hatred.
You said SRK is finished ? & CE won’t even collect 100cr ? One solid film from SRK and all Salmans movies have fallen behind, in just the first week of release, there’s still more to come.
If I were you I’d shut your mouth and stop commenting, fool.
just one word…. unbelievable …..282 crores in 8 days!!!!!!…. salute u SRK…………
@sachin11 joke of the day, wait for 10more days.
#sachin11 is making fun himself
meanwhile navin,hrithik,boss,king kumar got vanished from indicine
lol. all comments just make me laugh.
well said. so very well said.
ha ha ha ha
SRK. king of classes and masses.
the true king
@sachin. that’s what happens when u defy logic. lol. really u have even passed the level of illiteracy. wow
Good news for SRK fans….
Happy new year is a heist thriller not a masala entertainer. Will it be a heist thriller like Don 2 ? with its star cast and SRK’s appearance it looks so.
