Dhoom 3 Collects World Record Breaking Rs. 500 Crore

“Ek Lagao teen hafte me paanch le jawo” (get your investment quintupled in just 3 weeks) that would have been YRF’s USP if it was a betting house or investment firm. However YRF is neither a betting house nor does it do business in investment domain. But YRF is better than both, it’s a Bollywood production house and one of it’s biggest gambled paid off more than they could have dreamt of in their wildest dreams.
They gambled Rs. 100 crore in making Dhoom 3 which returned them Rs. 500 crore within just 3 weeks of opening. And in doing so Dhoom 3 has created a new world record by becoming first ever Bollywood (and Indian) film to collect over Rs. 500 crore earnings.
As per official statement by YRF the third franchise of Dhoom series has collected Rs. 501.35 crore ($83.56 million) worldwide since its release on Dec 20 last year. Out of Rs. 500 crore, 351.29 crore, came from domestic market and rest Rs 150.06 crore ($25.01 million) from overseas market.
