Ideally,
BEWAKOOFIYAAN should've dominated the international markets [new release + Overseas-friendly theme + YRF brand], but it was
QUEEN which claimed the top
position this weekend. BEWAKOOFIYAAN hasn't found acceptance -- its business remained low-key after a lackluster start -- but QUEEN, which enjoys tremendous word of mouth and
was sidelined by TOTAL SIYAPAA and GULAAB GANG last weekend, zoomed past its competitors this weekend. QUEEN is doing excellent business in U.S.A., Canada,
U.A.E.-G.C.C. and U.K. ... THE LUNCHBOX is rock-steady in U.S.A. and Hong Kong, besides Germany of course.
