I second Sakala in terms of head count. I remember it was a thursday where premier show happened. Not many were sure about the release date due to the issues been surfaced at TN. But the premier show itself was a housefull one. Following four friday, saturday and sundays, BIG cinemas had kept lot for screens for VR. I remember my collegue from AP told me that there were 10 screens for Tamil version where as only one for Telugu in the big cinemas theatre nearby to his place.

enna sakala...innum thalai kannaku .... ellai kanakunu....pesittu irukeenga....officially endhiran collected 61C overseas..... As per today's exchange rate it goes beyond 80C....The opening weekend the movie collected 2.1 M from all three versions in US. Endhiran is one of the biggest hits in US soil including bollywood... As per my recollection the movie collected almost 20C from US alone. probably very few hindi movies touched or crossed it.... the current generation actors movie could only match 10% of that.

1 Broke another's record Seriously?
You got to be kidding ...
I live in a smaller city (NC/East Coast) and saw it twice - 1st week and the 4th week. It was full 1st week with about 95% occupancy and dwindled slightly into the 4th week about 60% ? Not sure if it was on 5th week. I saw Endiran once and it may have been similar, I couldnt compare the two really. They may have been close but Endiran is not far ahead as you claim.

Comparsion is tamil vishwaroopam and tamil endiran. Not getting into hindi versions ... Infact I wanted to see viswaroop hindi version but was not available/released where I live ...
Vishwaroopam is clearly on the same level - 1M+ USD and as I mentioned earlier, excellent run for 4+ weeks in a 2nd tier city.

A2A, konjam thanni kudinga boss! This headcount / no of persons thing was reported by some official tweeters who regularly post US BO numbers, l don't remember the name. Those tweets was very much posted here in this forum. Infact it was posted by me! I don't have time now to go search and dig it out.
Unless there is a credible source, i won't be remembering this details et all

the Tamil version collected 1.5 Million in opening weekend itself and went on collected more than 4.0 M in US box office (all three version).

Sakala, If your post was intended to stroke some ego here. I agree Vishwaroop broke all the records. Not sure why they stopped at 220+ They could have picked little higher number like 250 to make it a round figure.
I sincerely hope Vishwaroop - No 2 brings even higher number like 300 or 350 range. 
kissa khatam natak bhand!
