War’s screenings were cut back drastically not only because of the widely released Housefull 4, but also Saand Ki Aankh and Made In China. Despite this, the film still managed to attract audiences where it was showing. It had a steady opening weekend during the pre-Diwali season when numbers were lower. Nevertheless, just like other films playing in cinemas at the time, War yielded considerable success on Monday and throughout the week that followed.
The presence of Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff guaranteed that moviegoers continued to visit theatres, ultimately contributing to the Siddharth Anand-directed production amassing a total revenue of Rs. 314.67 crores.
In spite of that, it will not be able to surpass the overall total of Salman Khan’s movie ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ [which stands at Rs. 321 crores].
Blockbuster.
