MBPA doing really well in overseas markets

Here's good news for the fans of the Priyadarshan brand of cinema! While the Indian numbers are still to be declared, the Om Puri, Akshaye Khanna, Paresh Rawal and Genelia D'Souza starrer has surprised in the Overseas, given its cost and cast.

During its first weekend run, MERE BAAP PEHLE AAP has grossed a decent $113,576 in the US, entering the charts at number 23. It has done even better in the UK, grossing $199,469, with a healthy print average of $6,434. The film makes an entry at number 13 in the UK chart! There are also reports of a good performance in Middle East!

What makes MERE BAAP PEHLE AAP's performance all the more creditable is that it had for company the formidable, THE INCREDIBLE HULK.

To compare, it is as good as Dasavthar, the costliest movie ever made in India. It's safe to say it's a hit overseas.
