Superman may be flying high at the North American box office, but Bollywood’s first superhero, Krrish, is also raking in big in India.

“Krrish” is expected to take his box office total to $22 million this weekend, Reuters reports.

The Bollywood superhero is very similar to North America’s Superman, only he can sing and dance, as well as perform superhuman tricks.

The film is also similar to the man in steel, as the film tells the story of a hero trying to save the world from a mad scientist.

“Krrish” has propelled the movie industry in India to earning close to $70 million this year ? making this year’s box office revenue better than the last few.

“2006 looks set to be one of the best years for Bollywood in recent times,” Taran Adarsh, a leading Bollywood analyst, said to Reuters.
