Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh shared, “#Dangal is UNSTOPPABLE… Does EXTRAORDINARY biz on Day 2… Fri 29.78 cr, Sat 34.82 cr. Total: ₹ 64.60 cr. [incl Tamil and Telugu].”The film is also doing well in the overseas market. Dangal collected Rs 28.49 crores from overseas market.
With total collection of Rs 64.60 crores, Aamir Khan-starrer Dangal has fuelled speculation of becoming the highest grosser at the box office this year. Given the positive word-of-mouth, the film is expected to do much better in the coming days. The prevailing festive mood of Christmas and New Year will help ensure that Dangal crosses Rs 100-crore mark in the first weekend.
While there is still some time before we come to know whether Dangal will break Sultan’s record, the film has gone on to create a different kind of history. Dangal has already received the highest ever advance opening on online entertainment ticketing platform.
The online platform has hit its fastest 1 million ticket milestone for an individual movie with Dangal. The film has witnessed approximately 40% more advance bookings on online platform for the opening week as compared with other blockbusters which released this year.
However, Dangal’s first-day collection has ensured that the film is already among the top ten openers of all times. The list of top ten opening collections sees a heavy dominance from the three Khans – Salman, Shah Rukh and Aamir.
While Salman’s ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ rules the chart with Rs 39.32 crore, Aamir’s films in the list include ‘Dhoom 3’ on the fourth spot and ‘PK’ at the tenth spot. While Aamir’s best opener ever remains Dhoom 3 wth Rs 32.48 crore BO business, a good first-weekend collection is being expected from Nitesh Tiwari film.
