Harry Potter And Deathly Hallows tops Box Office again

Harry Potter And Deathly Hallows tops Box Office againThe wizard boy, Harry Potter had to fight with a fairy princess last weekend at the Box Office. Both of them had a close shave but finally the Potter movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 came out as the ultimate winner with a collection of $50.3 million over the Thanksgiving weekend.

'Tangled', the fairy tale of princess Rapunzel, was another Box Office favorite last weekend as the long-haired princess attracted millions with her charm in North America. The 3D animated movie earned $49.1 million within three days, which is much more than the industry expectation. It opened just one day before the U.S. ‘Thanksgiving Day’ so many preferred to enjoy the holiday with this charming princess.

According to the Warner Bros, the seventh Harry Potter movie sold tickets worth $163.5 million and the United States and Canada ruled with a earning of $50.3 million. In France, the 'Harry Potter' movie collected its best last week with $19.1 million, which is the best opening of the country this year.

It indicates that the Harry Potter fans are not at all bored with Harry's magical wand and they can watch it for next few years too, if there comes any other sequel. The final data of the last weekend shows 'Harry Potter' is still the ultimate ruler at the Box office and we can expect the success journey to continue for the next few more weeks too.

Munni gets Pak cops into trouble

Officers at a police station in Pakistan's Gujranwala district paid a heavy price for being enamoured with the Dabangg super-hit song Munni Badnam Hui when they were suspended Friday for forcing three female dancers to perform it at the police station.

Three dancers of a musical troupe in Lahore were on their way to Gujranwala to perform at a marriage ceremony, but officers of the Sadhoki police station stopped them at a checkpost midway and took them to the police station, Dunya TV reported.

Having arrested the dancers, the policemen were not ready to let go the opportunity to have some fun.

They asked the dancers to perform to the Malaika Arora hit song Munni Badnam Hui one by one. After having his wish fulfilled, the police station in-charge registered an FIR against the three dancers and detained them in a lock-up.

The dancers, who could not go home even after entertaining the police officers, were only released on bail after two days.

They filed a writ petition before the session judge who ordered an inquiry after listening to their plight.

The Regional Police Officer (RPO) Gujranwala, Tariq Masood Yaseen, after conducting an inquiry, has suspended the police station in-charge Abid Farooq and the entire staff, the channel said.

All of them have been detained in the same lock-up where they kept the dancers for two days while further investigation is underway.
