The film's collections might decline further in the next week as another biggie - "Gori Tere Pyaar Mein" - is all set to hit the screens.
"Krrish 3" is the third installment in the superhero franchise, following "Koi Mil Gaya" (2003) and "Krrish" (2006). These two films have been big hits at the box office. "Krrish 3" has also turned out to be a successful film. According to reports, director Rakesh Roshan is planning a fourth installment of the film. It remains to be seen as to when the film will take off.
With the success of "Krrish 3", Hrithik has given three back-to-back hits, including "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara" and "Agneepath." The actor will be next seen in "Bang Bang" and "Shuddhi."
