HOUSE FULL has fetched a healthy start in the two major markets - U.K. and U.S.A. - but the weekend business could've been better. When you compare the figures of this film with Akshay's previous hits [see comparative charts below], you'd notice that the film is in the same range. It hasn't crossed or gone beyond those films in these two markets.
