Already declared a superhit in India, Abbas Tyrewala's directorial debut "Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na" is also raking in the riches in the overseas market, too.

The film's box-office collections from 40 locations abroad have stood at approximately $1.3 million (Rs.50 million) till Sunday, according to UTV, which has released the movie in foreign shores.

The movie, that launched Aamir Khan's nephew Imran, has particularly fared better in the Gulf regions and North America.

In the Gulf, it has collected $464,435 in 10 days while the box-office returns from North America total up to $440,717 till Sunday last. Released in six locations in Australia, "Jaane Tu..." has grossed $71,90 in 10 days.

The movie's 10-day collections from the rest of the world, that includes 13 locations, are $67,925.
Released July 4, "Jaane Tu... Ya Janne Na" had opened with a 100 percent collection across India and the domestic box-office collections have remained steady since then.

Also starring Genelia D'Souza and a host of other newcomers, the movie endearingly depicts the contemporary youth culture.
