New Delhi: Superstar Salman Khan's family drama ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' is minting gold at the box office. Within three weeks of its release, the movie has bagged Rs 300 crores in India and overseas combined.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh posted the movie collection on his twitter account.
“#PremRatanDhanPayo [Wk 3] Fri+Sat+Sun: ₹ 3.10 cr. Total: ₹ 206.63 cr. Hindi version. India biz. Overseas total: $ 14.1 million [₹ 94.01 cr],” he tweeted.
The movie, despite being failing to impress the critics, has set new records on the box office. The very credit for the movie's massive success goes to Salman Khan. He returned as his iconic character of ‘Prem' for the 16th time in this movie and the audience didn't deprive him of love.
The year 2015 has been a lucky one for Salman Khan as he became the only superstar whose movies earned a total of Rs 500 crores in a single year.
Before Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo, Salman's Bajrangi Bhaijaan also worked wonders at the box office. The Kabir Khan directorial struck an emotional chord with the audiences and went on to earn a whooping Rs 300.06 crores.
With these mind-blowing collections, Salman Khan can be touted as the undisputed ruler of the box office.
Currently, Salman Khan is shooting for ‘Sultan', which will clash with Shah Rukh Khan's ‘Raees' on Eid next year.
