Nagpur was a rare city where Dhoom 3 did not set a first week record. Infact it was the only city where a film releases on more than 10 cinemas that was not a record for Dhoom 3. Chennai Express still holds the first week record in Nagpur.
The collections of Chennai Express in week one came out slightly higher in Nagpur. The single screens and two premium multiplexes (PVR and Cinemax) are better for Dhoom 3.
But there is was a healthy gap in the favour at three other multiplexes of Nagpur which are Inox Poonam, Inox Jaswant and Big Sangam.
The average per show for Dhoom 3 was 22,961 while for Chennai Express it was 25,931 in the first week at Nagpur. Below is a comparison of Dhoom 3 and Krrish figures in Nagpur for the first week.
