NEW DELHI: Shah Rukh Khan-starrer My Name is Khan has earned gross revenues worldwide of Rs 90.2 crore, as per the data released by Fox Star India, which distributed the movie.

In a statement, Fox said that on Sunday, MNIK became the biggest single day hit internationally for a Bollywood movie and has also earned the biggest three-day collections worldwide. Mr Singh added the movie earned Rs 47 crore at the domestic box office and an estimated Rs 42.2 crore internationally.

Film analysts believe the movie has done very well internationally, though in India it did better in urban centres than in smaller cities. “The movie had a good weekend but on Monday its occupancies dropped. It did much better in international markets compared with the domestic box office,” said film analyst Komal Nahata.

Another film analyst Taran Adarsh added the movie has definitely become the top grosser in the overseas market but has not achieved the same in the domestic market.

Multiplex players too said the movie witnessed housefull in several centres though it did not do well in smaller cities and single screen cinemas.

Dharma Productions and Red Chilles Entertainment’s co-production, MNIK was bought by Fox Star India for a reported Rs 90 crore. Aamir Khan- starrer Three Idiots was earlier said to have broken all records by raking in Rs 175 crore in a week and an estimated Rs 300 crore in 17-18 days of its release.
