India's biggest money spinner of all times, DHOOM 2, completed 100 days at the box office this past weekend.

After taking a historic opening at the ticket counters by leaving nearest competitors by several crores behind, Sanjay Gadhvi directed DHOOM 2 has rewritten history all over. The film has been a massive success and turned itself into a major franchise with 85 crores in its kitty and still counting.

In fact the casting of no other film has generated as much curiosity as the next in the series of DHOOM has.

While an official statement is still awaited from YASH RAJ FILMS about the cast and director of DHOOM 3, what is certain is the fact that the film will again rewrite all records when it eventually gets made.

'Guru' too has entered into its 8th week, hence completing 50 days at dozens of centers. While for 'Dhoom 2', the credit has gone to Hrithik Roshan in a major way, for 'Guru', Abhishek Bachchan can stake the claim for coming into his own and delivering a superlative performance.

This Mani Ratnam film has already netted more than 40 crores and is still showing promise of a few more weeks at the theaters before the film's original DVDs and VCDs hit the stands.
