The Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra directed Bhaag Milkha Bhaag (BMB), a tribute to India's 'Flying Sikh' Milkha Singh, is not only a critically acclaimed flick but also a commercial success.

At the end of the first week, the movie has already netted more than 53 crores and it has been declared a hit. The Northern belts and Mumbai circuit have been the standout circuits. In the overseas markets, the success story continues with markets such as USA and UAE outperforming.

Made at a big budget of close to 50 crores, the movie has recovered its costs and is on its way to making handsome profits. This week, there isn't much competition as we have two films, Ramayya Vastavayya and D-Day, which don't have a big star to pull in the audiences. Guess, BMB will gallop for a few more weeks.
