Siddharth Anand's Pathaan, featuring the star power of Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham, is continuing its impressive box office run. Despite the recent release of Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, Pathaan has amassed over Rs 515 crores from the Hindi version alone and shows no signs of slowing down. Notably, the movie will be shown on 800 screens for its 50th day, making it the only Hindi film to maintain this number of screens in its eighth week. Even single screen owners in smaller towns have chosen to keep showing the film in its eighth week, indicating that it has not lost its momentum.

Pathaan Celebrates 50 Days In 800 Screens Across The Country

Pathaan has defied the conventional belief that movies struggle to maintain their momentum beyond the first weekend, as it has remained unstoppable for over seven weeks. Despite facing competition each week, Pathaan has persevered and continued to attract new audiences. It's worth noting that Pathaan's day-wise box office collections remain higher than any movie released after it, with the exception of Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, which is still in its first week. This accomplishment demonstrates that Pathaan has consistently been the top pick for moviegoers week after week. As there are no major movie releases until Bholaa, it's expected that Pathaan will retain a significant number of screens. It's possible that by the end of its run, the film may earn up to Rs 525 crores nett in Hindi alone, giving it a Rs 15 crore advantage over Baahubali 2, the second highest-grossing Hindi movie in nett terms. However, surpassing Pathaan's impressive numbers would require a considerable amount of effort because movies that receive the level of adoration that Pathaan has are few and far between.

Pathaan Broke Several Records In The Course Of Its Glorious Theatrical Run

During its run, Pathaan has broken numerous records, starting with becoming the only Hindi movie to open at Rs 55 crore nett on a non-holiday Wednesday. On its second day, it also recorded the highest single-day collections for a Hindi film. Not only has it become the highest-grossing Hindi movie in terms of nett collections, but it has also emerged as the highest-grossing Indian movie internationally in the first phase, surpassing blockbusters such as Baahubali 2. Pathaan is currently the fifth Indian movie to gross over Rs 1000 crores, following Baahubali 2, Dangal, RRR, and KGF 2. What's notable is that Pathaan managed to achieve this feat without support from the Middle Kingdom, indicating the film's strong appeal to its core audience.
