Ranbir, Deepika's 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' enters US Top 10


Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone have entered the US box office top 10 with Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. The Bollywood film, which takes its title from a Kishore Kumar song, opened on Friday (May 31).

"YJHD crosses $1 million mark in USA. Sat $607,000. Total: $1.07 million. Debuts at No 9 at USA BO. Outstanding," trade analyst Taran Adarsh revealed.

The Ayan Mukerji-directed project has also performed well in the UK, collecting a total of £278,618 in the two days since its release.

On a promotional trip to London, Padukone spoke to Indian film expert Ashanti Omkar about the difficult shooting conditions in and around Manali.

"Even though we shot a love story, it was more like an adventure film, due to the physical exertion," said the actress.

"The actors get it a bit easier than the film unit - the unit really suffered - carrying equipment on snowy mountains. And this was all constant, for one and a half months. It was exhausting and adventurous, like we had makeshift toilets with cardboard."

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani is out now on general release.
