• Pathaan’s first week collection at the domestic box office now stands at ₹315 crore nett.
• Pathaan, which also stars Deepika Padukone, John Abraham, Ashutosh Rana and Dimple Kapadia, was released on January 25.

Pathaan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, became the second Hindi movie to break the 300 crore milestone most quickly after Baahubali 2: The Conclusion after earning 21 crore crore nett on its seventh day in India. The first week domestic box office earnings for Pathaan currently total 315 crore nett. The January 25 release of Pathaan also features Deepika Padukone, John Abraham, Ashutosh Rana, and Dimple Kapadia.

According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, who tweeted on Wednesday, Pathaan, which has been setting and shattering records since it was released worldwide, entered the 300 crore club in just seven days, breaking the previous record held by Baahubali 2: The Conclusion’s Hindi version since 2017, which needed 10 days to do so. In comparison to Aamir Khan’s Dangal (2016), he said that the Hindi version of KGF: Chapter 2 (2022) achieved the 300 crore mark in 11 days. It took 16 days for both Sanju (2018) and Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) to join the 300 crore club. In contrast, it took Aamir’s PK (2014) and Hrithik Roshan’s War (2019), respectively, 17 and 19 days to reach the 300 crore mark.

In addition, according to a Box Office India report, Pathaan’s first week box office haul of 315 crore nett is 65 crore nett higher than KGF: Chapter 2, which had the greatest first week total before Pathaan surpassed it in five days. Pathaan, a Siddharth Anand-directed film, was made available in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu the day before Republic Day in 2023. Actor Salman Khan also makes a guest appearance in the action movie produced by Yash Raj Films.

Since its debut, Pathaan has been shattering records. The movie became the fastest Hindi film to join the 200 crore club when it crossed the 200 crore nett threshold in only four days in the past. With its amazing advance bookings, the movie Pathaan broke records even before it was released. On January 20, advance reservations for Pathaan were available.

According to reports, theater owners in various regions of India decided to screen the movie early in the morning due to rising demand. Prior to Pathaan’s opening day, sources stated that the morning showings of the movie had been canceled due to demonstrations outside Indore theaters. After receiving demands for a boycott and demonstrations against the movie’s cast and crew in recent weeks, Pathaan was finally released on January 25.
