Pathaan Box Office: All records are meant to be broken and Shah Rukh Khan starter Pathaan is proving it right. Last year, when Yash-starrer KGF: Chapter 2 was being lapped up by the audience, everyone was quick to rule out Bollywood. Now, with the release of Pathaan, not only has Shah Rukh Khan reclaimed the throne of the most popular Indian star but also breathed life into the Hindi film industry. Pathaan has emerged as the first blockbuster of 2023 with over Rs 400 crore collections for the Hindi version in India. Overseas too, it is doing tremendous business.
Pathaan Box Office collection on Monday
On Monday, Pathaan collected Rs 8 crore at the box office in India for the Hindi version. The dip was expected due to the weekday and since the ticket prices have been slashed, the numbers were expected to fall. The total 13-day business of the film now stands at Rs 420 crore, which is a first for an original Hindi title. Pathaan will become the second highest-grossing film in India on Wednesday as it crosses the numbers of KGF 2. The only film it will then trail is Prabhas' Baahubali: The Conclusion.
