Fighter Dominates Box Office with Strong Opening Days
Superstar Hrithik Roshan’s film Fighter delivered a strong performance at the box office. The film received a fantastic opening on its first day, followed by a significant jump in collections on the second day. The third day’s earnings were also historic. The film was released on a Thursday.
Fighter Day-Wise Collections
Fighter‘s second day, which was Republic Day (January 26), saw collections exceed expectations. After its strong second day, the film continued its robust performance on its third day, a Saturday.
The film’s updated first day All India Net Collection stood at ₹24 crore 60 lakh. On its second day, Fighter achieved an All India Net Collection of ₹43 crore 50 lakh, surpassing ₹40 crore, partly due to Republic Day and the film’s theme aligning perfectly with the release. For its third day, Fighter is reported to have earned approximately ₹35 crore in All India Net Collection, benefiting from Saturday being a half-holiday, with afternoon, evening, and night shows showing bookings similar to the second day.
Fighter Total Collections and Worldwide Performance
The initial three days’ All India Net Collection for Fighter reached ₹103 crore 10 lakh, making it Bollywood’s first film of the year to cross the ₹100 crore net collection mark. The film’s three-day India Gross Collection totaled ₹122 crore 50 lakh. The overseas gross collection so far is ₹25 crore 50 lakh. In its first three days, Fighter‘s worldwide collection stands at ₹148 crore. Despite being released only in Hindi, Fighter is performing strongly in South Indian states.
Fighter has a budget of ₹250 crore. For its fourth day, a Sunday, collections are expected to see a significant surge, potentially exceeding ₹50 crore worldwide, which would push the four-day worldwide collection beyond ₹200 crore.
