Filmmaker Anees Bazmee's comedy film "Welcome Back", which is a sequel to the 2007 movie "Welcome" has collected almost Rs.15 crore since its release on Friday.
 
The film, which features John Abraham, Shruti Haasan, Anil Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shah, Nana Patekar, Paresh Rawal and Dimple Kapadia, minted Rs.14.35 crore on its opening day, said a source from the production house. 
 
"Welcome Back", which did not have any other big films clashing at the box office, is expected to have a good week.
