Less than five months after the release of Pathaan, Bollywood has another film which has taken a blockbuster opening at the box office. Adipurush has defied all expectations and has just hit the roof with its opening day collections. The most optimistic estimate for the box office numbers on Friday was Rs. 35 crores but this Om Raut directed visual spectacle has gone even ahead of that, what with Rs. 37.25 crores coming in.
To think of it, these are just the numbers for the Hindi version and if one counts the Telugu version, which is tremendous as well, and the other south versions (which are contributing a bit as well), then Adipurush is the highest opener of 2023 with the collections around Rs. 35-40 crores ahead of even Pathaan. That’s simply unbelievable because this is the same film that was being termed as a disaster in the making just around six months back when its first teaser was released!
This turnaround also means that the weekend is going to be bountiful for this Prabhas, Saif Ali Khan and Kriti Sanon starrer, which is doing fantastic business everywhere, be it big cities or small towns, multiplexes or single screens, A or C centres. The wave is on the film side due to which despite some negativity from various quarters, the footfalls will still keep coming in, hence promising just the Hindi version to go past the Rs. 100 crores mark before the first weekend is through.
Note: All collections as per production and distribution sources
