Salaar box office collection day 16: Prabhas’ film struggles to cross Rs 400 crore mark in India.

Prabhas-starrer Salaar made an impressive debut at the box office, raking in Rs 90.7 crore on its opening day and surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan which had been the biggest opener of 2023. However, despite the record-breaking start, the film has experienced a consistent decline in its collections. Although there was a surge during the New Year holiday, the film’s performance tapered off once the holiday season concluded.

According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Salaar is anticipated to earn Rs 5.25 crore on its third Saturday, bringing its total domestic collection to Rs 387 crore. To put Salaar’s performance into perspective, on their respective third Saturdays, Jawan earned Rs 14 crore, Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, secured Rs 12.8 crore, Gadar 2, featuring Sunny Deol, made Rs 13.75 crore, and Rajinikanth’s Jailer garnered Rs 7.3 crore. Salaar amassed a total of Rs 308 crore in its first week. The film, however, saw a 77 per cent decline in its collection and raked in Rs 70.1 crore in its second week.

Trade analyst Manobala Vijayabalan reported that Salaar’s global collection is inching closer to Rs 675 crore. He shared this information on social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
