Rab Ne... rakes in Rs 30 cr in second weekend
After grossing a record-breaking Rs 90 crore in its first week worldwide, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi has crossed beyond a phenomenal Rs 30 crore gross in its second weekend. This is by far the highest collection, even surpassing Dhoom:2 and Chak De! India, both of which did outstanding business in their second weekend.
The total collections for Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi in India over the second weekend are around Rs 15 crore net (gross collections of Rs 24 crore). The total gross collections for all overseas markets, where it continues with its tremendous opening week performance, during the same period are over US$1.5 million (around Rs 7.5 crore).
In fact, the gross figures for the first 10 days are a staggering Rs 120 crore and more, making Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi by far the biggest hit of 2008. With the long Christmas and New Year weekend ahead, the message of 'extraordinary love', togetherness and harmony of the film should drive the collections to making Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi the biggest blockbuster of all time.
