Sultan has had an unbelievable extended five-day weekend grossing around 181.50 crore apprx nett in five days. These figures are similar to what Bajrangi Bhaijaan and PK did in seven days. The film just shattered almost every record in the book. There was a dip on Friday which was a working day but the film went up to the Eid levels again on Saturday and Sunday. An early estimate for Sunday is 39 crore nett apprx.
The figures were record breaking all over with every circuit doing fantastic business. The North Indian touch in the film has meant that North is extraordinary but places where it may have found it harder like Mysore and West Bengal are also huge with the former hitting 11.50 crore nett in five days.
The weekend business has ensured the film is a BLOCKBUSTER and it remains to be seen where Monday lands up. The film does not have the benefit of weekday holidays like a Bajrangi Bhaijaan or PK which allowed ticket rates for those films to stay at weekend levels so it will harder to set weekday records but what is certain is that film will become the first film to cross 200 crore nett in a week, another major record added to the list.
