USA /Canada US $ 3,435,000 (Highest opening ever – beating the previous 4 day record by $1 million)
UAE / GCC US $ 2,801,000 (The film did not release on Thursday as is the norm in the Middle East, but still managed to beat YRF’s own previous record by $500,000)

With other international territories like Morocco, Maldives, Rwanda, Lebanon, Egypt, Germany, Peru, Romania, Japan, Russia, CIS, Turkey opening up in the coming days plus others to follow.
Dhoom:3 is unstoppable and on course to add chapters after chapters in its Box Office history.
YRF’s decision of not releasing the film with pre-views on Thursday to keep the plot under wraps and open on the same day worldwide, strategically worked at the Box Office.
It’s only a matter of time for Dhoom :3 to clear the 200 crore hurdle with no major releases this week and its set to edge out B-town all time record holders Chennai Express and Krrish 3.. lets see where at what figure Dhoom :3 ends up finally in India and worldwide.
