Trade analyst Taran Adarsh said: “It’s surprising that the film got such a huge opening. It’s over 90 percent all over India.” He said that he is not aware of the figures in Pakistan but hoped the film does well there too.

“Emraan is like Shahrukh Khan in Pakistan, so the film is bound to do well there,” Taran added.

To support them were none other than Pakistani cricketers Imran Khan and Wasim Akram. Pakistani actor Shaan (Khuda Ke Liye) also joined in the celebrations.

The film’s premiere, held at Gulistan cinema, Lahore , saw almost 2,000 people.

Jannat star Emran Hashmi got the same treatment in Lahore that Shah Rukh Khan gets in India. The Pakistani media followed Emraan from the time he came to Lahore, until he left.

Mahesh Bhatt said Percept Pictures Company has bought the world rights of the film “Jannat” for Rs.110 million. He refused to divulge any details about the deal.

“People called me from various parts of India and also from Pakistan and appreciated my performance,” said Sonal Chauhan, who is playing the love interest of a cricket bookie played by Emraan Hashmi.

“I am overwhelmed by the phone calls that I am receiving. I am very happy that the film got such a good response on its first day,” the debutant actress said here Saturday.
