Furious 7 is gaining velocity at the Indian box office which has so far contributed over Rs 80 crores to its international collections. Unusually for a Hollywood movie, the seventh installment of the Fast and Furious series is making blockbuster earnings in India.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted:
Furious 7, which stars Paul Walker in his final film appearance and Vin Diesel, made over $160 million at the American box office at last count. Its opening weekend was the biggest in the Fast and Furious franchise and the ninth biggest ever in USA.
Vin Diesel posted this Facebook tribute to Paul Walker, who was killed in a car crash in 2013:
Pablo, this weekend you turned the world into a family...Thanks for the love...

Furious 7, which also stars Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson, Kurt Russell, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster, was completed with Mr Walker's brothers standing in for him.
Meanwhile, Bollywood's latest offering has been left at the start line by Furious 7. Dibakar Banerjee's much-awaited Byomkesh Bakshy, starring Sushant Singh Rajput as the titular sleuth, has made a little over Rs 17 crores so far.
