WAQT - THE RACE AGAINST TIME has emerged a solid hit in U.K., occupying the No. 11 position in its third weekend. It won't be wrong to state that the Big B-Akshay starrer continues to pose a big opposition to all new releases [MAIN AISA HI HOON, KYAA KOOL HAI HUM and KAAL]. On the other hand, KAAL is steady in U.K. [No. 14], but registers a drastic fall in U.S.A.
Weekend: May 6 - 8, 2005.
