*HUMKO DEEWANA KAR GAYE in the UK TOP 10*
The U T V - distributed mega release, HUMKO DEEWANA KAR GAYE (*ing Akshay
Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Bipasha Basu & Anil Kapoor), has opened to a smashing
response in the UK.
The gross from its previews and 4-day Easter weekend was a staggering £
219,981. With this title, U T V gives Akshay Kumar his highest ever solo
opening in the UK. The opening of HUMKO DEEWANA KAR GAYE was even bigger
than director Raj Kanwar's previous release, ANDAAZ, which had fared well in
the UK.
On the basis of its weekend performance (April 14-16), despite only 38
screens, HUMKO DEEWANA KAR GAYE has made its way to the coveted UK TOP 10
list (Source: EDI) at # 10.
It ranks above Western titles such as HOSTEL (Sony / 217 screens), THE PINK
PANTHER (20th CENTURY FOX / 272 screens), YOURS, MINE & OURS (Sony / 240
screens), THE SQUID AND THE WHALE (Sony / 18 screens) and THE DARK (MOMENTUM
/ 179 screens).
