X-Men First Class released last Friday (June 10) out here in India & has done splendidly indeed!

Let me list out it's weekend achievements:
*Made a record weekend opening of Rs 10.02 crores (that is $2,277,273 to be precise)
*Faired better than all the Hindi movies that released that Friday
*Accomplished the biggest opening for a non-3D Hollywood movie in 2011 in India
*Registered the 2nd biggest opening of 2011 for a Hollywood film in India, racing ahead of Fast 5(!!)



Rewinding back to the last X-Men movie release, X-Men Origins: Wolverine grossed around $1.5 million in its opening weekend in India.

@tejasrege I SO disagree...Though you cant expect the non-English speaking masses to understand, what about ppl like u & me & our friends etc?? u cant ignore those numbers..thinking that only few in India understand the Hollywood biz would just be arrogance imo...
