Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi Latest Box Office Report January

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, which released worldwide five weeks ago on December 12th  2008, has grossed a phenomenal Rs. 180 crores worldwide till date and has broken all previous box office records for Yash Raj Films, as well as become the highest-grossing Shahrukh Khan film till date.

The film was released at an extremely precarious time, just after the terror attacks in Mumbai on 26th November 2008.

Amidst uncertain consumer sentiments and apprehensions from the trade regarding market conditions at the time, the film has achieved an unparalleled box office run against all odds.

Moreover, the film had to further contend with the record-breaking onslaught of Ghajini on December 26th 2008, despite which it has continued unabated and endured a hugely successful run in its third, fourth and fifth weeks, and promises to carry on in the same vein going forward.

The total collections of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi for the first five weeks in India are Rs. 83 crores net (i.e. gross collections of close to Rs. 140 crores).

The film has thus surpassed Yash Raj Films' previous highest grosser, Dhoom: 2, which collected Rs. 80.6 crores net across its entire run in India and is considered as one of the highest grossing films of all-time.

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi has also comfortably surpassed the collections of two of the biggest hits of the last 2 years, 'Singh is King' and 'Om Shanti Om', and is now second only to 'Ghajini' as regards all-time India net collections.
