Dangal Box Office Collection Day 4: Aamir Khan's film's business growth is 'incredible'
Highlights
- Aamir Khan's film collects Rs 25 crores on Monday
- Dangal is performing well abroad as well, says trade analyst
- Dangal has already set the record for highest single day earnings
Aamir Khan's
Dangal passed the box office litmus test post-weekend, collecting over Rs 130 crore by its fourth day in cinemas, report trade analysts. Monday's business was an incredible Rs 25 crore plus, proving that the currency ban has done little to discourage ticket sales for the last big film of the year. Monday is often the real day of reckoning for films, which witness massive drops in their daily earnings - for
Dangal, the drop is comparatively steep but only because Sunday's collection of over Rs 42 crore set a
new box office record for the highest single day takings of any film (displacing Salman Khan's Sultan). Considered as a standalone number, Monday's Rs 25 crore is a very respectable figure, opening the week after a blockbuster weekend.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted a day-wise break up: In a series of tweets, he also said that Aamir Khan's film is doing well abroad. The film released in three languages worldwide on December 23, with USA being treated to an earlier opening the day before.
Aamir Khan, 51, who is currently in Panchgani with wife Kiran Rao for their anniversary, stars in Dangal as Haryanvi wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat, whose daughter Geeta fetched India a gold medal in female wrestling at the 2010 Commonwealth Games. The film chronicles Mahavir's journey in the sport and how he trained his daughters to fulfil his dream and become successful sportswomen in the process.
