The Akshay Kumar starrer Bhool Bhulaiyaa , has registered the biggest box office opening for any Bollywood films this year in the UK and made it to the top ten in film charts there.
"The comic-thriller, directed by Priyadarshan , notched up 293,905 pounds in three days and reached 7th spot in the charts," a release said in London today.
The film by T-series, released on October 12, has topped the big banner Yashraj Films release Laaga Chunari Mein Daag across the globe, it said.
In US too, ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ opened with a staggering USD 512,000 and the total first three-day billing outside India for the film reached Rs 6.5 crores, compared to Rs 4.75 crores brought in by ‘Laga Chunari Mein Daag’, it added.
