Box Office: Dhoom 3 is a BLOCKBUSTER!

Dhoom 3 has become the blockbuster of the year, doing equally well in India and abroad. Its dubbed versions in Tamil and Telugu have also done well.

The film has achieved the rare honour of crossing the Rs 100 crore collection mark in its opening weekend itself. It has also earned the distinction of maintaining the Rs 30 crore+ collections on all three days.

Trade analyst Vinod Mirani gives us the box office collections for the week.
