Note:- It was a 4-day weekend in the three major markets - U.K., U.S.A. and Australia. Hence, the collections are of 4 days in each sector.
Despite a hurricane-like start of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN in the international arena, the two new releases, CHEENI KUM and SHOOTOUT AT LOKHANDWALA, have managed to leave a mark. CHEENI KUM has recorded impressive numbers in U.K., excellent in U.S.A., but is average in Australia.
SHOOTOUT AT LOKHANDWALA, despite its violent theme, has fared well in U.K., is very good in U.S.A. and good-average in Australia.
