Overseas: 'Welcome' superb, 'T.Z.P.' steady

 

WELCOME is all set to emerge Akshay Kumar's biggest Hit in U.K. The film has recorded fabulous collections in its second weekend and has overtaken the 10-day total of Akshay's previous hits [NAMASTEY LONDON, HEYY BABYY, BHOOL BHULAIYAA] by a wide margin. Smash Hit!

Overseas: 'Welcome' superb, 'T.Z.P.' steady

 

Meanwhile, TAARE ZAMEEN PAR is rock-steady in U.K. in its second weekend. The film has registered an 18% fall [normally, films fall by 40% - 60% in second weekend], which clearly indicates that the film is slowly and steadily climbing the ladder. In the absence of any major release this week, both WELCOME and T.Z.P. should maintain steady collections in the forthcoming days as well.

 

Weekend: December 28 - 30, 2007.

 

Due to the New Year celebrations, the figures of a few international circuits haven't reached yet. They'll be updated the moment we receive them.
