Kaminey has a upward trend overseas

The weekend gone by witnessed a spurt in business. Kaminey has had an excellent start in U.S. and Australia, but isn't as energetic in U.K. On the other hand, Life Partner has sprung a pleasant surprise by having a good weekend in U.K., but is terrible in U.S.A. and Australia. Being pitted against with a movie with a huge buzz has affected its business largely. However, the silver lining is that there is no major opposition for the next few weeks and the two films could strengthen their position.
