Blockbuster 'Pathaan' Has A Historic Extended Opening Weekend At The Worldwide Box Office

Mumbai, January 30 - Yash Raj Films' biggest film has delivered at the right time for it as spy action thriller "Pathaan" concludes its extended 5-day weekend on a historic note. ## The Shah Rukh Khan-fronted film has been in full flow since its release on January 25, Wednesday, and is breaking records. After the biggest-ever opening for a Hindi film, "Pathaan" pilled on the momentum to end the 5-day weekend to approx. 335 crores gross at the domestic box office, which is the biggest ever 5-day count for a Hindi film. ## The overseas box office collection of "Pathaan" matched the magic of the domestic collection as it scored 207 crores internationally in 5 days, already becoming the number 1 Bollywood movie of all time in many markets. The overseas numbers of the film help the total worldwide collection to reach approx. 542 crores gross in 5 days. ## The total worldwide collection of "Pathaan" after 5 days is almost double what the trade had initially predicted. The mood of the Indian box office is hard to predict and "Pathaan" is the latest example of it though it was expected to perform exceptionally well at the domestic as well as overseas box office. ## Also starring John Abraham and Deepika Padukone, "Pathaan" could add another 100-150 crores worldwide on weekdays to finish the first 9-day week to around 700 crores gross, which will lead it to the 9th biggest Indian gross of all time. "Pathaan" is currently the 15th highest-grossing Indian film worldwide and might finish its full run to over 900 crores to become the 5th biggest Indian film. ## Stay tuned...

Ajay Devgn's 'Bholaa' Hitting The Right Notes Before Release

Mumbai, January 27 - Over the last few years, Ajay Devgn has been one of the most successful Bollywood actors with back-to-back box office hits to his name. The actor has hardly put a foot wrong in the last 5-6 years with two of his last four films turning out to be his biggest blockbusters in the form of "Tanhaji" and "Drishyam 2". ## Ajay Devgn is now gearing up for his next which is titled "Bholaa", co-starring Tabu. He also turns director for this action thriller which is easily one of the most-awaited Bollywood films of the year despite the odds. It is the remake of the Tamil hit "Kaithi". ## The remakes haven't had a great time at the box office post the covid-19 pandemic as almost all of them met with the same flop fate. However, it was Ajay Devgn's "Drishyam 2", the remake of the Malayalam film of the same name, which proved that even remakes can work if made well as it grossed over 340 crores worldwide. ## "Bholaa", despite carrying the tag of being a remake, is making the right noise before its release as the audience is speaking highly positively about it. Ajay, the director seems to have taken utmost care while making the film as the difference between "Bholaa" and "Kaithi" can be seen in the two teasers released so far. ## Everything that the makers have released so far regarding "Bholaa", be it posters or teaser, has raised anticipation and there is genuine excitement building up among the audiences. The idea to shoot the film also in 3D format also seems to be working in its favor big time as "Bholaa" is more large-scale and massively mounted than "Kaithi". The music by Ravi Basrur is another major aspect of the movie that is being discussed very positively on social media. ## As far as the box office chances of the film are concerned, "Bholaa" is having a very positive buzz among audiences and it should be able to take a good start.## "Bholaa" is produced by Ajay Devgn FFilms, Dream Warrior Pictures, T-Series Films, and Reliance Entertainment. It also stars Deepak Dobriyal, Gajraj Rao, Sanjay Mishra, and Makarand Deshpande in supporting roles, with Amala Paul and Abhishek Bachchan in special appearances. The movie is scheduled to release on March 30, 2023. ## Stay tuned...

Pathaan Third Day/First Friday Early Estimates; Extraordinary Hold

Mumbai, January 27 - Pathaan is simply ripping apart the box office on the third day of its run.

The drop from yesterday will be around 50% depending on the final numbers. Today is a crucial day for Pathaan as it was a working day but the content and star power of the film defeated that. These are early estimates figures and the final collections could vary but even if it comes slightly lower than 35 crores it will be an outstanding hold.## The 35cr Friday collections will take its entire collections to around 162cr which is a new record for a three-day weekend film and that too by a big margin. The previous three-day weekend record holder was KGF2 at around 140cr while for the Hindi film industry, it was Sanju at around 120cr net and Pathaan obliterated these records. ## Pathaan will see a big jump tomorrow and the film might cross 200cr collections by the end of the day. The five-day extended weekend numbers will be in the range of 250cr give or take 5cr. The first Monday collections will determine whether the film will cross 400cr collections or not. At the moment that magical 400cr looks well within the range the way, the film is putting the numbers.## Shah Rukh Khan is back at the box office who had a series of flops and underperformers though his stardom was unquestioned you always need numbers on your side and Pathaan did that for Shah Rukh Khan. Hopefully, these numbers will be repeated again with his next films.## Stay tuned...

Pathaan Opening Day Early Estimates; Extraordinary Start - Flirting With Biggest Ever

Mumbai, January 25 - The most awaited film of the year Pathaan starring Shah Rukh Khan hit the screens today and there is no word to describe the mammoth opening of the film at the box office. The huge opening was always on the cards going by the advance sales. The advance suggested that the opening is going to be around 45cr but the mass centers have gone bonkers which enabled the film to record a huge walk-in audience and now we are witnessing history as Pathaan is heading toward 50+ crores net opening day. ## The early estimate suggests 50+ crores net mark and but this could go higher to 55 crores. The film has a shot to beat KGF2 to record the biggest opening ever in Hindi. It is certain to join KGF 2, War, and Thugs of Hindostan which collected 50cr net collections on their opening day. KGF2 is the Biggest opener ever at 53.95cr in the Hindi version and the question is whether Pathaan will beat KGF2 to emerge as the next record opener or not will only be answered tomorrow when the actual arrives. Pathaan might beat KGF2 or might remain behind by a few crores but one thing is sure in real value Pathaan is the biggest opener ever as all these 50cr openers were released on national holidays but here Pathaan smashed records on a working day which is unprecedented.## There is no recent film In the last few years that took an opening similar to the level of Pathaan be it on holiday or on holiday. The only film that comes to our mind is Dhoom3 released in 2013 which recorded similar mass hysteria on nonholiday. The national chains will record their highest collections ever and that too by a good margin. The mass centers will also record extraordinary numbers similar to what event films were registering before the pandemic. There will be many circuits that will see new highs in terms of collections with Nizam/Andhra probable one followed by West Bengal.## Shah Rukh Khan is back at the box office with a bang and proved why he is a superstar. He was written off after a series of failures but we believe, Superstars with massive fan following should never be written off. Also, Yash Raj Films deserves huge applause for presenting Shah Rukh Khan in a manner that the public wants to see him. In fact, Yash Raj Production house is the only production house that presents Superstars like Superstars be it Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Hrithik Roshan. As long as Superstars are being presented as Superstars the records will keep shattering at the box office. ## The first day came on the strength of hype and star power and now it's important how the film behaves from here on. Tomorrow is a huge national holiday and this is the biggest plus of Pathaan as it is an already established blockbuster day before. Tomorrow the collections could go anywhere and the film will be in a position to break all-time records. The real target will be to achieve 100cr net in flat two days which is Sureshot.## Stay tuned...
