KISMAT KONNECTION has fared very well internationally too. The film is excellent in U.S., good-average in U.K. [behind JAB WE MET here], but more than double of JAB WE MET in Australia [J.W.M. was Aus. $ 19,011 on 6 screens]. Pakistan too has opened bigger than RACE. The gamble of giving the film an extensive release has paid off, since the film has fetched good returns for its distributors, UTV.
