'Pathaan' collection touches Rs 980 cr worldwide, expected to continue well despite new competition
New Delhi: The worldwide box office collection of Hindi thriller movie ‘Pathaan’ reached Rs 980 crore in three and a half weeks since its release on January 25.
The movie collection is expected to remain excellent for at least a few weeks more, but is expected to be affected a little by the release of ‘Shehzada’ as well as ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ on Friday, February 17, reports The Indian Express.
Industry tracker Sacnilk has said that ‘Pathaan’ collected approximately Rs 2.50 crore on its Day 24.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh said that the movie collection has been Rs 1.01 crore in national chains on Day 24. He, however, concurred that the new releases would have an impact on the collection as it would reduce the number of screens for ‘Pathaan’.
The ‘Pathaan’ collection is nearly $4 million in the UK and $13 million in the Gulf, as per the Box Office India records. The Tamil and Telugu versions of the movie have collected Rs 17.7 crore, said Adarsh.
Producer of ‘Pathaan’ Yash Raj Films said on Friday that the ticket price for Saturday and Sunday will be Rs 200 at select national chains, while the rate was reduced to Rs 110 on Friday.
Apart from the fact that the audience were getting to watch an SRK movie after a couple of years, ‘Pathaan’s marketing campaigns and positive reviews proved successful in attracting the interest of the audience.
