Oscar-winning filmmaker Ang Lee's fantasy adventure "Life Of Pi" is raking in the moolah at the Indian box-office. The film has earned Rs.19.5 crore in the country in its opening weekend.

The movie, which released Friday, in 2D and 3D format, grossed Rs.5 crore on the opening day and went on to earn Rs.19.5 crore over the weekend.
