THANK YOU has emerged one of the biggest disappointments in Overseas. In view of the fact that the Akshay - Anees Bazmee combo had reaped a harvest in WELCOME and SINGH IS KINNG, UTV decided to give THANK YOU a wide release to capitalize on the super-successful combination. But the results have sent shock waves in the international arena.
In U.K., THANK YOU is the second lowest opener of Akshay. It is slightly better than ACTION REPLAYY, but lower than all other films [check chart below].
In U.S.A., it is the lowest opener of Akshay. Lower than even ACTION REPLAYY and KHATTA MEETHA [check chart below].
Meanwhile, MY NAME IS KHAN, which had an extensive release in South Korea three weeks ago, is faring exceptionally well there [check figures below].
Weekend: April 8 - 10, 2011.
