Krrish 3 grossed around 123 crore nett in first week and has had good collections on its eighth day. The film was simply phenomenal in Rajasthan while it underperformed in Mysore.

- Bollywood's 200 Crore Club
- By Bollywood Hungama News Network
In this edition of Box Office Report Card, we take a look at the films that have managed to break the barrier of Rs. 200 crore. In a comparative analysis we pit the cast, director and of course the three films to break this mark against each other.
Interestingly, while Aamir Khan's 3 Idiots that released in Christmas in 2009 took 70 days to cross the mark, SRK's film did the same in just 15 days. Krrish 3 however took 10 days to make it into the 200 crore club.
Apart from this, below we list a few unknown factoids about the Rs. 200 cr Club members:
Chennai Express managed to break 3 Idiots record (of entering the 200 crore club) after approximately 1267 days/181 weeks. However, Krrish 3 managed to break Chennai Express's record of entering the 200 cr club after 82 days.
Aamir Khan achieved this milestone when he was 45 years old, while SRK achieved it near to his 48th birthday. However, Hrithik is the youngest actor to enter the club achieving this milestone closer to his 40th birthday.
Deepika achieved this milestone at the age of 27.5 years, as compared to Kareena who achieved the milestone when she was nearly 29.5 years old. On the other hand, Priyanka, who is currently 31.34 years, becomes the oldest actress to be the part of the 200 crore club.
Rajkumar Hirani achieved this milestone when he was 47.5 years old, while Rohit Shetty achieved it at the age of 40.5 years, but Rakesh Roshan age 64 becomes the oldest director/producer in 200 crore club.
3 Idiots was released in 1700+ screens whereas Chennai Express was released in 3500+ screens in the domestic circuit. Krrish 3, on the other hand, was released in 4400 screens in India.
