It earned Rs 53.35 crore on the day of its release and Pathaan has gained over Rs 50 crore from its advance booking itself and that itself is a huge number for any Hindi film on the first day. The film’s spot bookings are also excellent in India which means the Box Office collections are going to skyrocket today.<\/p>\n
The film has recorded the highest advance ever for a film in Hindi – both original or dubbed, reported the trade website Box Office India. Pathaan is the first Hindi film in history to have hit the screens with Rs 50 crore already in the pocket.<\/p>\n

The Rs 53.35 crores on the first day makes Pathaan the biggest opener of all time in the Hindi belt, beating the likes of KGF 2, War, and Thugs of Hindostan (two among three are from YRF). Interestingly, the film achieved this feat on a non-holiday opening day.<\/p>\n
It’s a working Wednesday for the viewers and yet Pathaan has managed to register a giant presence at the Box Office on its first day. Come Thursday and the second day will create havoc in cinemas considering it’s a Republic Day holiday.<\/p>\n
Pathaan has already revived the Bollywood Box Office even before the first day, the first show gets over.<\/p>\n
Despite the frenzied calls for “BoyCott Pathaan” by right-wingers in India on Twitter, the movie instead got more publicity!<\/p>\n
