had
its

and

ringing
at
the
Box

Cutting
across
the
language
barriers,
people
from
different
age
groups
watched
and
enjoyed
the
action-thriller
flick.
An
observer
at
a
leading
multiplex
said,
"How
often
we
see
a
Hindi
movie
getting
such
a
response
in
Tamil
Nadu?
Especially,
an
Aamir
Khan
film
getting
such
a
thunderous
response
has
stunned
the
money
bags
behind
the
flick." Though
the
exact
figure
of
the
collection
in
Tamil
Nadu
is
unknown
at
this
stage,
traders

says
