The Worldwide business of Befikre is less than Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge which was released 21 years ago in 1995. This is even though the rupee was almost half in 1995 and an Overseas gross of of $4.8 million gave just 16.68 crore while a $3.05 million total today is 20.59 crore. The Gross collections (before entertainment tax) are also below Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge which had a gross figure of 86.49 crore as compare to Befikre which is (57.86 crore nett) 80.07 crore. It has beaten the Worldwide figures Mohabbatein but again that is because of the change in currency value. The Worldwide figures of the four Aditya Chopra directed films are as follows.
1. Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi - 1,60,00,00,000
2. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge - 1,03,17,00,000
3. Befikre- 100,66,00,00
4. Mohabbatein - 90,01,05,000
Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge was the second film in the history of Hindi cinema to cross 100 crore Worlwide. Pre 2000, only three films crossed 100 crore Worldwide and they were Hum Aapke Hain Koun (1994), Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998)
