MUMBAI - This Bollywood bottom line is a thing of beauty. The Aanand L Rai-directed “Tanu Weds Manu Returns” has collected the year's first Rs100 crores ($157 million) at the home box office, an incandescent spot in an otherwise gloomy 2015 which has been less about profit and more about loss, NDTV reported. In a moment of pure Bollywood-like serendipity, the 100 crore day coincided with “Tanu Weds Manu Returns'” lead actor R Madhavan's 45th birthday. The movie stars Kangana Ranaut as both the female leads - the eponymous Tanu and her lookalike Datto - apart from Madhavan, Jimmy Sheirgill, Deepak Dobriyal and Swara Bhaskar. Akshay Kumar's “Gabbar Is Back” and Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan's “Piku” are a close second in terms of collections with Rs 86.55 cr and Rs 77.33 cr respectively. - Agencies
