Christopher Nolan's final entry in Batman trilogy The Dark Knight Rises did good business on weekend in India as it grossed Rs.25 crore.

After Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, this is last in this trilogy. It is the most anticipated Hollywood movie which saw a good hype. In India too people were eager to see it as there was a good number advance bookings.

The weekend collection is the second higher for a Hollywood movie after The Amazing Spider-Man which took the opening of Rs.34.50 crore. Spider-Man 4 was released in 1000 prints while The Dark Knight Rises was released in 650 prints.

It did a good business of Rs.7 crore on its opening and it should gross around Rs.65-70 crore in India. The reviews are highly impressive and that will surely help the movie to do the further business.

The distribution was sold to Dar Media for Rs.18 crore and it has already recovered its distribution cost. There will be good profit from it. It is second time that the film's distribution rights were sold to a single theatrical distribution, first was Spider Man 3 which was sold for Rs.15 crore.


“However, if you consider the ticket sales per print, The Dark Knight Rises scores higher in earnings than The Amazing Spider-Man during the first three days of release,” said Murli Chhatwani, distribution head, Dar Media.
