Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan’s Opening Day Box Office Collection

Shah Rukh Khan's latest release Pathaan, has registered a record opening of Rs 57 crore (NBOC) across India. The film, which is directed by Siddharth Anand also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, released in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

Of the Rs 57 crore of the film's business, Rs 55 crores come from the Hindi markets and the rest Rs 2 crores came from Telugu and Tamil territories, as per senior film trade analyst, Taran Adarsh.

This film bypassed the Hindi collections of K.G.F.: Chapter 2, which stood at Rs 53.95 crore and the 2019 two hero film War, which collected Rs 51.60 crore. The latter, too, belongs to Yash Raj Film's - the production house behind Pathaan.

In terms of worldwide collections, the film reportedly has minted Rs 100 crore, an achievable feat given that Khan enjoys a rock-solid fan-following among the Indian diaspora.

Pathaan marks the return of Khan, on the silver screen after 4 long years of wait. His last film was the ambitious Zero directed by Aanand L. Rai, which was released in 2018. The film earned Rs 88.74 crore in India.
