In its 14 days run, it managed to garner worldwide collections of Rs 101.78 crore (Rs 93.02 crore gross coming in from the domestic market and Rs 8.76 crore gross from the overseas markets). Made on an overall budget of Rs. 30 crores, FR has turned out as one of the most profitable movies of the year.
