It’s ‘Bang Bang’ in North America!
The Hrithik Roshan-Katrina Kaif blockbuster, Bang Bang is not only a hit in India but is the new sensation in the United States.
Salman Khan has ben the reigning king of the 100r club but this time the opportunity has been stolen by Hrithik and Salman’s ex flame, Katrina Kaif.Bang Bang has garnered a whooping $2.56 million beating Kick’s $2.47 million. The film is a hit among citizens, visitors, and is still screening in over 100 theatres across the United States and Canada. Earlier this month, Bang Bang set the record of the biggest Bollywood opening weekend in 2014. Guess the public holidays did the trick.
The film is said to have crossed the 300 crore mark, making it the biggest hit of 2014 and the only film to compete with the earnings of last years Dhoom 3.
The film is a remake of the Hollywood film Knight and Day, and is directed by Siddharth Anand. It tells a story of a chance encounter of a bank receptionist, Harleen Sahni (Katrina Kaif) with the mysterious and charming Rajveer Nanda (Hrithik Roshan). What follows is a series of car crashes, shoot-outs, bombings, typical Bollywooodshtyle. During this mayhem, Rajveer tries to convince Harleen that he is ‘the’ perfect guy but she fails to trust him time and again. Will trust be the defining factor in this love story?
The film is filled with seat action, romance and excitement of the duo fighting against the ‘bad guys’. Although the film didn’t seem to catch the eye of ardent movie lovers in India, it seems to be a hit worldwide.
