Last week, the highly–awaited and much–discussed film War, starring Tiger Shroff and Hrithik Roshan released on Gandhi Jayanti. Proclaimed to be 2019’s most enthralling action–adventure flick, the movie opened to massive response in 4000 theatres across India, accumulating an astonishing Rs. 53.35 crores on its first day!
This box office report delves into the commercial success of War over its extended opening weekend, with a comparison to Tiger Shroff’s prior films. Not only did War surpass the Rs. 166.25 cr mark, it smashed past all other releases from the same actor – Baaghi 2 (Rs. 73.1 cr), Student of The Year 2 (Rs 38.83 cr), Baaghi (Rs 38.58 cr), A Flying Jatt (Rs 29.45 cr), Munna Michael (Rs 21.67 cr) and Heropanti (21.33 cr). This record–breaking collection is remarkable given that War is up against such fierce competition from previous blockbusters led by Shroff himself!
With no foreseeable challengers in sight, War continues its rampage through theatres and is anticipated to become the first film of 2019 to reach Rs. 200 cr. This claim is supported by the incredible run it has had thus far, a sign that its success looks set to remain unhindered for the time being.
