Salman gets lucky at the box-office!
|
Salman Khan's Lucky: No Time For Love saw one of the best openings this year -- almost 100 percent collections in the initial days.
The film is well on its way to becoming a sizeble hit despite the cricket season, which seems to have become a nightmare for the Bollywood box-office.
