Jaane Tu... smashes all records



Helped by a good response from young movie-goers, Aamir Khan Productions and PVR Cinemas’ co-production Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na has scored over its costlier rival Harry Baweja’s sci-fi flick Love Story 2050 in the first three crucial days. The Imran Khan-starrer Jaane Tu... earned an estimated Rs 20 crore in its first weekend. The producers now plan to add an additional 150 prints, buoyed by the film’s success.

Jaane Tu... was made with a modest budget of Rs 10 crore and was released with about 450 prints. Says Aamir Khan: “It has seen an overwhelming response not just in metros but smaller cities too.

Even on Monday, we haven’t seen any drop in collections or occupancy levels. We plan to increase the number of shows and prints as the demand has seen a huge surge from exhibitors.”
