Bachna Ae Haseeno is below expectations overseas

Bachna Ae Haseeno is below expectations in Overseas. Released extensively in the major markets, the film has not lived up to the humungous expectations in U.K. [surprisingly, below average], U.S.A. and Australia... God Tussi Great Ho is a complete fiasco in U.K. and America. A supreme disaster... Singh is Kinng continues to rule; it's the biggest Hit of Akshay Kumar internationally. By the time you're reading this, the film would've crossed £ 1 million in U.K. [superb], while U.S. is nearing $ 2 million [fantastic] and Middle East has crossed AED 3 million [excellent]. Australia is equally strong. It continues to be in the 'Top 20' list.
