Prabhas Takes the Lead!
First up, we have Salaar, starring the mighty Prabhas. This movie has been buzzing for ages, and with good reason! It’s an action-packed thriller with Prabhas playing a tough guy who gets the job done. And guess what? People are loving it!
Even before the movie came out, tickets were selling like hotcakes. They sold over 30 lakh tickets in advance, which brought in a crazy 95 crores! That’s a lot of money before anyone even saw the movie!
And when the movie finally hit the screens? BOOM! It exploded. People packed the theaters from the very first show at 12:21 AM, and it kept going all day. By the end of the day, Salaar made a whopping 135 crores in India alone! That’s like, a crazy amount of money, and it’s still counting!
BIGGEST WW opening of the year 2023 belongs to #Salaar.

SRK Brings His Magic!
But hold on, there’s another big fish in the box office pond! Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki also came out, and it’s got its own fans cheering. This movie is a different kind of story, more about adventure and travel. And hey, even though it didn’t quite reach Salaar’s first-day numbers, it still did pretty well! Dunki brought in around 30 crores on its opening day, which is nothing to sneeze at.
#Dunki Day 1 is headed towards âč 30 Cr + in India as per very early estimates.
Strong Opening considering the social drama genre & mid week non holiday release..
