Sultan is the seventh highest grosser in overseas after two weeks and will probably finish as the sixth highest grosser as it should be able to cross My Name Is Khan at $22.80 million and finish at around $23 million. The gap between Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Sultan is mainly the business in US / Canada and United Kingdom. Below are the top ten all time Overseas grossers.
1. PK - $46,520,000
2. Dhoom 3 - $30,830,000
3. Bajrangi Bhaijaan - $28,640,000
4. Dilwale - $26,610,000
5. 3 idiots -$25,180,000
6. My Name Is Khan - $22,800,000
7. Sultan - $21,300,000 apprx
8. Chennai Express - $19,390,000
9. Happy New Year - $17,120,000

The Overseas list is still domiated by Shahukh Khan starrers with four among the top ten and this is despite the content of his recent films not being as strong as the other Khan's. The PK total is inflated by its business in China but like for like in the NRI markets Dhoom 3 is still the biggest hit in Overseas and despite PK doing far more in China the returns are similar between PK and Dhoom 3 as films are given at a flat rate for China so the business done is not coming back to India.
