OM SHANTI OM BREAKS RECORDS - UK BOX OFFICE
As predicted in our Box Office report from Saturday afternoon, Om Shanti Om and Saawariya have entered the UK Box Office charts at EXACTLY those positions.
In that article it was written, “We here at RS predict that Om Shanti Om will enter the charts at number 7. For Saawariya our expectations are number 12.” And would you believe it… that is EXACTLY what happened.
Shah Rukh Khan's comedy spoof Om Shanti Om has made a massive £518,845 (US $1,068,866 - INR 42,085,306) while Saawariya gets a reasonable £160,985 (US $331,632 - INR 13,058,048). The per screen average for Om Shanti Om came to £9977.79, which was the best average of the weekend. Saawariya's per screen average was £3499.63. Eros Entertainment's Om Shanti Om is being shown on 52 screens, 6 more than the Sony Pictures release Saawariya, 46.
In a closely faught battle with three multiple Oscar winners, Tom Cruise, Robert Redford, and Meryl Streep… Shah Rukh Khan lost out… but only just. The political thriller Lions For Lambs accumulated £658,282. However, Om Shanti Om is expected to make more money in the long run than this flick.
The official UK Box Office Top 15 chart is as follows:
1. Good Luck Chuck New Entry
2. Stardust
3. Ratatouille
4. The Golden Age
5. 30 Days of Night
6. Lions for Lambs New Entry
