Brahmastra First Sunday Early Estimates; Creates Mayhem At The Box Office

Mumbai, September 11 - Brahmastra has created mayhem at the box office with extraordinary collections across the country on its first Sunday. The early estimate collections are heading towards a little under 45cr net box office mark in all the versions with the Hindi version recording close to 41.50cr net. These are early estimate collections and the final collections might vary.

The Hindi version collection on Sunday will be among the highest single days ever though it will fall short of Ranbir Kapoor's highest single-day record of Sanju which collected over 46cr net mark on the first Sunday but it also has to be noted that Sanju was released in 2018 when the box office collections were not as tough as today's post-pandemic world.



The film has witnessed outstanding growth and that too after recording two consecutive mega days at the box office. This type of trend was last witnessed in Ranbir Kapoor's Sanju and before that it was Salman Khan's, Tiger Zinda. The highest growth has come in circuits like Gujarat, Saurashtra, East Punjab, and Central India which is an excellent sign as these circuits are core Hindi circuits that will drive the film. The southern states continue to collect well though some centers have seen a drop which was always likely as the film overperformed on the first day down South.

The first weekend collections of Brahmastra are over 122cr mark in all the versions which is a new high for the Hindi film industry. The Hindi version weekend will be around the 112cr mark which will be the third highest after Sanju and Tiger Zinda Hai. The film has also recorded unbelievable collections overseas which enabled the worldwide collections to cross over the 200cr mark in the first weekend only which is again a new high for the Hindi film industry. The final worldwide weekend in the Hindi version will most probably edge out Salman Khan's Sultan or very close to it but that will be known tomorrow when the official number arrives.

Brahmastra has broken many records and created new ones and provided a much-needed respite to the Hindi film industry. The collections will drop tomorrow and looking at the advance on Monday the drop will be big but let's hope the film sustains well on the subsequent days to put a huge lifetime collection.
