Adult comedy Grand Masti has finally surpassed the coveted 100 crore mark after 23 days’ run at the domestic box office! The film that was earning in the range of 60 lacs to 70 lacs, post the release of Besharam, is continuing to do the same since the Ranbir Kapoor starrer’s collections did not see significant growth at the box office.

With that the film has crossed over into the 100 crore, taking the count of the number of club entrants to 23. The film is the year’s fifth 100 crore club member, the others being Chennai Express, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Race 2 and Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. Being a crude film that was panned by the critics and intelligentsia, it is quite an achievement to overcome the negative word of mouth and emerge as a winner sheerly on the basis of entertaining the audiences!
