Harry Potter film opens with $330 mn worldwide

MUMBAI: The latest Harry Potter film has created a record of sorts. By grossing over $330 million worldwide on the opening day, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 became the highest grossing film in the US and Canada on the open day ticket sale among all the earlier films released in the Harry Potter series
.

The film collected over $125.1 million, the sixth-best grossing film on the opening day behind The Dark Knight that made $158.4 million on the opening day in 2008.

Though the film couldn’t rope in $128 million, as estimated, it clearly beat the earlier best in the series, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,that made a first-day collection of $102.7 million.
