Pathaan

There has been no stopping for Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan since it was released. The action-spy thriller continues to break several records in Bollywood and overseas in North America, Australia, and the UAE. Pathaan has made history by becoming the first Bollywood film to reach the Rs 500 crore club in India in three weeks.

Pathaan minted Rs 3.50–4.50 crores on day 22, finally crossing the Rs 500 crore mark and collecting around Rs 504 crore. Pathaan now hopes to surpass SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali: The Conclusion as India’s highest-grossing film. According to reports, Baahubali 2 made over Rs 510 crore in its lifetime.

Siddharth Anand’s film already holds the record of becoming the fastest Bollywood film to enter into Rs 250 crore club and Rs 400 crore club in the domestic market.

The film’s worldwide collections stand at over Rs 980 crore and will soon touch the Rs 1000 crore mark worldwide.

Commenting on the box office numbers of Pathaan, director Sidharth Anand told ETimes that it’s a surreal experience. He said he is happy to be a part of the industry and to be able to make such films.

Pathaan collected Rs 57 crore on its opening day, which is much higher than War (Rs 53.35 crore), Thugs of Hindostan (Rs 52.25 crore), Brahmastra (RS 36.42 crore), and KGF: Chapter 2 (Rs 26.5 crore).

It is the fourth instalment in the YRF Spy Universe and is Khan’s comeback film after Zero (2018). Pathaan marks the debut of Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham together. Helmed by Siddharth Anand, the film was also released in Tamil and Telugu versions on January 25, 2023.
