Shah Rukh Khan is back and is already creating new records at the box office in India. According to early estimates, Pathaan has collected in the range of Rs. 53 to 55 crores on its opening day, thereby emerging not just the biggest non-holiday opener of all time, but also the biggest opener in the history of Hindi Cinema. East – West – North – South – Pathaan was running with packed houses across the board.
The three national chains, PVR, Inox, and Cinepolis – have contributed approximately Rs. 26.50 crores, amounting to 50 percent of the total business. The film was equally strong in the single screens too, and the business is expected to see another spike in collections on Thursday owing to the Republic Day Holiday. Pathaan will become the first film in the history of Hindi Cinema to score Rs. 100 crores in merely 2 days.
Pathaan will also be targeting an extended opening weekend of Rs. 200 crores and with this, it will also emerge as the first Hindi film to score a double century in a span of 5 days. The audience word of mouth is extremely positive and the same can be said for the critic reviews too. The initial euphoria around the film indicates that it would enter the Rs. 300 crore club in no time, thereby becoming the first SRK film in the prestigious club.
In Hindi, Pathaan collected approximately Rs. 50-52 crore, whereas Tamil and Telugu dubbed versions put in Rs. 3 crores taking the total collection in the range of Rs. 55 crores. The final collections in the morning could be higher or lower than the predicted range, depending on the numbers that come in from the single screens.
