228 crore and counting!!! That's the new box-office record scripted by Hrithik Roshan's Krrish 3. With this Krrish has managed to overhaul Chennai Express' previously held record of 226 crore. The other mind-boggling fact is that Krrish has beaten Chennai Express not just in numbers but also in terms of the time taken to reach there. While Chennai Express took almost a month, Krrish crossed the 200 crore mark in a span of 15 days which is highly commendable. Trade analyst Amod Mehra too concurred that Krrish 3 has now taken an unassailable lead over Chennai Express. “It’s a fact that Krrish 3 has beaten Chennai Express at the box-office.” With this new record, the unbeatable father-son duo of Rakesh and Hrithik Roshan has once again established their supremacy at the box-office. Also helping their cause this time was the long Diwali holiday week which also didn’t see any good releases to challenge the supremacy of Krrish 3. Satya 2 which released on 8 November proved to be a super dud which meant audience had only Krrish 3 to look forward to. But with Ram-Leela releasing now, Krrish 3 could see a slow down. Says Amod Mehra, “Ram-Leela’s release will slow down things and I expect the film to collect 20 to 25 crore more. Overall, I feel it will make 250 crore.” The question now is who will break Krrish 3’s record. With a host of big movies lined up, the game is sure to get even more exciting with every release. As for now, let’s roll out the red carpet and hail the new king of box-office - Krrish aka Hrithik Roshan.
