The film has created seven new records including that for a Gandhi Jayanti release, a film released in Navratri and the highest-grossing first 3-day for Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff and Siddharth Anand, who is the director.
Lastly, this is the fifth Yash Raj Films to cross Rs 100 crore plus net box-office collection over the third day after Dhoom 3, Sultan, Tiger Zinda Hai and Thugs of Hindostan.
The high-octane film that also stars Vaani Kapoor opposite Hrithik, shows the two superstars pitted in a massive showdown. Gaining mass support across theatres in India, the mega-actioner has hit the right chord with the audience.
Helmed by Siddharth Anand, the film has been bankrolled by Aditya Chopra under the big banner of Yash Raj Films.
