Shah Rukh Khan's big comeback film, Pathaan had a spectacular debut on January 25, and on day 2, a national holiday, it absolutely destroyed the box office. On day 3, the movie, which was directed by Siddharth Anand and also starred Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, had an anticipated decline. but not a major one. Incredibly high for a movie with only one holiday to rake in the big bucks, the movie has made approximately Rs. 160 cr in just three days from its Hindi version alone. KGF: Chapter 2, which previously held the record for the largest three-day opening weekend in India for the Hindi language, has been surpassed by Pathaan by a margin of almost Rs. 20 crore net.
Pathaan had a first-day Hindi box office gross of around Rs. 55 crore and increased by Rs. 13 crores on Republic Day to reach Rs. 68 crore nett Hindi on its second day. As it declined by less than 50% from its initial day, the hold on Friday was solid. The figures have not yet been released, but based on estimates, it is another Hindi single day worth at least Rs. 35 crore. It has significantly broken the weekend marks previously held by KGF 2 and Baahubali 2 with a three-day total of almost Rs. 160 cr nett (Rs. 140 cr nett). The movie is anticipated to gross more than Rs. 250 crore over the course of its prolonged 5-day weekend.
Selling this many tickets demonstrates the film's appeal given the variety of ways it may be viewed and its excellent performance both inside and outside of India. Pathaan, a film starring Shah Rukh Khan, expertly revived the enchantment of cinema. In addition to the return of the Housefull boards, the cash registers are ringing wildly.
