Pathaan Second Saturday Early Estimates; Scores Huge Jump

Mumbai, February 4 - Pathaan annihilated the box office on the second Saturday of its run with collections likely to be more than 60% compared to yesterday. The collections are heading towards the 23 crores net (Hindi - 22 crores) on the second Saturday, as per the early estimates. This is extraordinary growth for a mass front-loaded film that has already created historic initial records.

The growth was always on the cards due to the superb holds on the weekdays but this sort of growth was unexpected and tells a lot about the public appreciation for Pathaan. East, West, North, and South Pathaan has superb growth all over the country across every circuit. There are a few underperforming centers as they are not at the historic levels but as standalone centers, they are doing well.



The second Saturday collections will take the entire collection of Pathaan to over 400cr net box office mark. The film has crossed the lifetime business of Dangal to emerge as the highest-grossing film in the Hindi film industry and it is also the first Hindi film that crossed the benchmark of the 400cr club. Pathaan is also heading to break many lifetime circuit records which might start in the next subsequent days.

Sunday is set for further growth and a freaking 30cr plus Sunday cannot be ruled out the way the film is being appreciated. The second weekend stands at around 37cr net box office mark with a Sunday to come which will take the second weekend total to over 60cr marl easily or even a 65cr mark. The South biggie KGF2 can also be crossed on Sunday but for that Pathaan needs 30cr plus Sunday numbers. The real target would be to beat the lifetime business of legendary Bahubali which stands at around 512cr net box office collections.

Stay tuned...
