Even though the film is out from the theatres now after ruling it for really long time, but Shah Rukh Khan’s Chennai Express continues to break records.

The film collected Rs. 200 crore at the box-office, and has also managed to score high on the movie-on-demand service of direct-to-home operator DishTV. For those unaware, the film was offered by DishTV to its users starting September 25, and the film has been making buzz ever since.

In fact, it went on to break all previous records for largest number of orders for any single title on the movie-on-demand platform.

"Shah Rukh Khan`s unique ability to connect with fans across all age groups and in all parts of the country worked as a huge catalyst in redefining the dynamics of movie viewing on movie-on-demand, and in achieving this breakthrough viewership," Salil Kapoor, chief operational officer, DishTV, said in a statement.

"We look forward to building this synergy of entertainment with more such more such big titles from the superstar to delight our subscribers," added Kapoor.

The film, helmed by Rohit Shetty, also featured Deepika Padukone, and is presently the highest grosser at the box-office, beating Aamir Khan’s film 3 Idiots record!

Shahrukh Khan recreated history when his film Chennai Express broke the records of Aamir Khan’s film 3 Idiots. However, with Aamir’s upcoming chase-thriller Dhoom 3 all set to release at the end of this year, it is expected that all the previous records will be broken again.

Even Aamir believes that the Chennai Express record will be smashed in the next two months, while his film held the record for four years.

Says sources close to Aamir, “He is confident that D3 will shatter all records, in fact he has told someone close to him, ‘3 Idiots released in 2009 and it took them four years to break that record. and the record I set with ‘Dhoom 3’, will be broken by someone in 2020.’ Aamir is not one to make statements lightly. If he says something, you better believe he will deliver.”

Says trade analyst Komal Nahta, “The trade buzz is extraordinary for Dhoom 3. If you ask me whether D3 will break the records set by Chennai Express, then the answer is, yes, 100 per cent it will! Records are made only to be broken but the question is how soon? It took four years for the record of 3 Idiots to be broken, but I feel now records will be broken in a shorter time span.

There are too many multiplexes growing every year, ticket rates are being hiked and the overall business is on the upswing so records will break faster. Aamir will excel again in D3. The expectations are very high. For the first time people will see him in a negative role. He has worked on his body and gone through so much pain and effort. With every film Aamir takes his career five steps forward.

Now he has reached a stage where he wants to add a further dimension to his career. He has a certain reputation and that extends to his films. There is a craze for him. Time and again, he has proved his brilliance.”

Let’s see what actually happens!

I am glad I've Shah Rukh in Chennai Express, avers Deepika Padukone!

I am glad I've Shah Rukh in Chennai Express, avers Deepika Padukone!
Awaiting the release of her film Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, directed by Ayan Mukerji, actress Deepika Padukone is happy to team up with Shah Rukh Khan in Chennai Express.

This is the second time the two have teamed up as earlier in 2007 Deepika made her debut in Bollywood opposite SRK with Om Shanti Om and says now she interacts with him more freely and they share a friendly equation.

Quizzed how it was to work with SRK for the second time, she said, “You know, when we did Om Shanti Om, I was a newcomer, nervous and awkward. Today, I can speak to him much more freely. Today, we share a friendly equation. Shah Rukh is a sport. Unfortunately, a lot of people don`t get his sense of humour. Shooting with him is a breeze. He lightens the atmosphere and makes everything so easy.”

On whether she faces him more confidently this time, Deepika said, “You know, unlike our other film together where there was a large cast, in Chennai Express there is an added pressure because it’s a romantic comedy where the focus throughout is on Shah Rukh and me. For two actors to carry off a comedy on their shoulders is not easy. I am glad I’ve Shah Rukh in Chennai Express to make sure I don’t flounder.”

Her film YJHD also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Kalki Koechlin and Aditya Roy Kapur. It releases this Friday!
