The Siddharth Anand-directed film Pathaan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham, enjoyed a successful third Sunday at Pathaan box office. The movie is seeing strong attendance in its third weekend despite having used up a lot of its potential in the first two weeks. Pathaan is and will continue to be the top Indian movie worldwide and in India at the box office for the third week in a row. On its 19th day, Pathaan contributed roughly Rs. 12.50 crores nett at the box office for the Hindi version. This is likely the last time the movie registers a double-digit total at the box office.
The theatrical total for the Hindi version in India is an astounding Rs. 469 crores nett, and after 19 days, the total for all editions rises to Rs. 486.25 crores nett.
Since Pathaan is an action movie, it was not anticipated that it would perform so well at the box office. Even in its third weekend, the movie is almost at record numbers, which tells the tale of the movie and the kind of reception it received at the box office despite a smear campaign before the movie’s debut. Pathaan not only established itself as a historic box office success in India but also surpassed all previous Hindi film records almost everywhere.
Pathaan has demonstrated that the public had never abandoned Bollywood films and was simply waiting for the perfect movie, with a global cume flirting with Rs. 950 crores.
With no genuine competition, the following four days should go relatively smoothly for Pathaan. Two major films, Shehzada and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, will be released on Friday. It will be followed by the eagerly anticipated movies Selfiee, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, and Bholaa. Pathaan should continue to play for weeks, but its statistics will undoubtedly fall as a result of losing a significant portion of its audience to these new releases.
Pathaan needs to earn above Rs. 2 crores on its fourth Friday to surpass Baahubali 2 as the highest-grossing Hindi language movie in India. Whatever the case, Pathaan has accomplished nothing short of extraordinary during the past few weeks.
