UMRAO JAAN may not have taken the Indian box-office by storm, but is slightly better in the international markets. Again, the
first weekend business is not in sync with the status of a biggie, but it has done fair business in U.K. and Australia, despite mixed
reports.
Meanwhile, DON continues to fare very well in U.K. and U.S.A., while JAAN-E-MANN, despite a slow start, is steady in U.K.
Weekend: November 3 – 5, 2006.
