SALMAN KHAN'S "BODYGUARD" MOVING TOWARDS 100 CRORE

We have been updating you about the performance of Bollywood's biggest opener ever, Salman Khan's BODYGUARD. And here is the latest.

Not only has BODYGUARD beaten the full week total of DABANGG (80.50 crore) in 5-days flat by netting 86 crore during the extended weekend, it appears that it will also be the fastest to the 100 crore mark as well!

Given the Monday performance (normally a day of crash!) the film notched up another 8.75 crore. With the way the morning shows of Tuesday are booked in many circuits, it will not be a surprise if BODYGUARD gets to the magical 100 crore figure today (Tuesday-7th day) or for sure tomorrow, another new record for Hindi cinema!

The other releases of the week- BOL, THAT GIRL IN YELLOW BOOTS and MUMMY PUNJABI- have all been rejected, with collections in the range of 8-10 percent and in some case 15 percent
