Jab
We
Met
has
truly
done
a
Vivah
at
the
box
office.
While
the
film's
collections
are
just
a
shade
below
30
crores
after
7
weeks
in
the
running,
the
distributors
and
exhibitors
are
going
all
out
to
make
sure
that
the
film
sustains
competition
even
in
the
longer
run.
In
the
past,
Jab
We
Met
has
survived
challenge
from
biggies
like
Om
Shanti
Om,
Saawariya,
Dhan
Dhana
Dhan
Goal,
Aaja
Nachle,
Dus
Kahaniyaan
and
Khoya
Khoya
Chand
and
has
still
come
out
trumps!
Such
has
been
the
demand
of
the
film
even
today
that
the
film
is
now
running
at
greater
number
of
shows
than
even
Om
Shanti
Om.
If
the
show
distribution
at
multiplexes,
especially
at
Delhi
NCR
are
looked
at,
then
one
is
pleasantly
surprised
to
see
that
Jab
We
Met
show
count
is
even
double
than
that
of
Om
Shanti
Om
at
numerous
centers.
However
this
doesn't
take
away
from
the
fact
that
Om
Shanti
Om
made
dozens
of
crores
in
its
opening
fortnight
due
to
12/16/20
shows
at
majority
of
multiplexes
which
resulted
in
great
moolah
inflow.
Also,
today
the
Farah
Khan
directed
film
has
penetrated
further
into
B
and
C
centers
as
well.
Coming
back
to
Jab
We
Met,
the
film
has
now
gained
a
super
hit
status
for
itself
and
put
Imtiaz
Ali
into
a
big
league
with
two
back
to
back
quality
films
-
Socha
Na
Tha
and
Jab
We
Met!
