RECORD ALERT! Gadar 2 Beats Sultan and Pathaan With 30 Crore Total For 6 Consecutive Days —
Gadar 2 is setting new records across the board, but what sets it apart is that all these records are being achieved despite facing competition from other releases. Today, Gadar 2 achieved another milestone as it became the first Bollywood movie to surpass 30 crores in total earnings for 6 consecutive days.
Prior to Gadar 2, Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan held the record, earning over 30 crores and 35 crores for 5 consecutive days before dropping to 24 crores on the sixth day. In 2016, Salman Khan’s Sultan became the first Bollywood film to achieve a total of over 30 crores for 5 consecutive days. This record remained unbroken for 7 years until now, with Gadar 2 achieving the feat twice in a single year, thanks to an expanded box office reach and higher ticket prices. The release date also plays a significant role, especially if it falls during an extended weekend with public holidays, in addition to Sunday. Sultan was released during Eid, Pathaan during Republic Day weekend, and Gadar 2 shattered records during the Independence Day weekend.
According to early estimates, Gadar 2 has crossed 30 crores on the sixth day and is expected to touch 35 crores as well. If it achieves this, it will set a new record for the film. Pathaan remains the only film to earn over 35 crores for 5 consecutive days, and Gadar 2 might surpass that too. Let’s take a look at the day-wise earnings of Sultan vs Pathaan vs Gadar 2.
