We saw the highest rate of growth in this film. The film released on December 19 not just opened to a fantastic number at the box office, but also showed phenomenal growth with each passing day. Due to these reasons and a very strong word of mouth, the repeat viewing of the film is very high.
The Aamir Khan starrer is a light hearted entertainer which can be watched with the entire family. Also, the film is written in a way that the viewer, in the middle of all the jokes and laughs does not even realize that the film had a takeaway a social message. In fact, this time around it is the highest ever for any film in Hindi cinema.
Experts state that, like all other Rajkumar Hirani films, his recent release, PK seems to be enjoying a very high repeat index.
