Bollywood megastar Salman Khan is in a different league altogether when it comes to recording the ‘highest single days’ in the industry. 7 out of the Top 10 Highest single days now belong to a Salman Khan starrer, with 4 days of his latest release ‘Sultan’ making it to the Top 10.
The ’30 crore single day’ is a elite club only meant for the biggest superstars in the industry. Films of only 5 actors has managed to collect 30 crore or more on a single day. They are:
- Salman Khan (11 times)
- Shah Rukh Khan (5 times)
- Aamir Khan (5 times)
- Hrithik Roshan (once)
- Ajay Devgn (once)
Interestingly, no other actor, apart from those mentioned above, has even crossed the 25 crore mark on a single day. With Salman films crossing the 30 crore mark 11 times, the actor is just one short of all other actors combined (12).
The next film to watch out for will be Aamir Khan’s Dangal, releasing this Christmas.

Arjuna youngistan bro. Thanx dude . very much for supporting mohenjodaro. I also do hope it to earn atleast 30 crores each day on sunday and monday if not 35 crores.. Wants mohenjo to be an all time blockbuster despite clash……. Indicine team . thanx for putting this meaningful article ….
Zee news is the only good trustworthy channel in india. It is the best channel – hrithikian
Look at another moron @ sss again bark again
Udva apni udva pls continue
For your kind information hahk record was run till 2001 when gadar broke srk never was in race for higher you loser
He got in 2013 with ce and amir took back in 2 month
Dont talk for srk here we are talking for big league
And as I said earlier u people have only one thing hny manipulated figurr where in trade there is no srk movie in highest day collection zll from salman and one from aamir
Big losser- sss and kalli
Pls contine like always and u people are biggest moron
Too much fun
180 cr in 5 days… thn collection to break hona hi tha… many people watched it already in extended weekend… than collection to low hone hi the…
Yahan to other actors ki film 100 cr k weekend k baad hi collapse kar jati h… except salman nd aamir
On Christmas pk collect 27 cr… now call it underperformed…. bcz national holiday collection is only 27?? It happened due to many people already watched pk before Christmas day…
So sultan weekdays collection are low due to heavy footfalls during extended weekend…
Movie is excellent… nt like BB or PK
Bt bttr than many other big grosser movies Including some salman own movies…
@ challa – I thought only you are only genuine fan apart from this brainless srk fans like sss , spamezone and kaali but after your comments that only bb is good movie which will be remembered after 5 yr not sultan than no words for you
As sultan is very heart touch movie with good love story and emotional feel
Look at these losers . They never misses a chance to bash Akshay.
Tell me all when did Akki got EDX release from 2011 to 2016 ..he got Christmas For TMK in 2010 and he gave 2nd biggest opening of all time ..am I right or not ? That’s it.
If rowdy rathore 2 or other big film like blue will happen than it will easily do 30 plus on holiday.
His release 4 films that’s d reason it will be tough for him to do 30 . Simple reason!
He is d best superstar India ever got…! Your Barking can’t change it….! Now this 30 cr figure will describe his position & stardom?? Wat about other things where Akki leads ?
@ romance,with clash 50 crore on opening day for Reees is impossible.so please don’t do any unrealistic predictions.why some of you guys do such type of stupid predictions and give a chance to salman fans to insult Srk and us ?
every movie that has crossed 30 crs apart from d3 have been national holiday releases.akki had only sib released on national holiday and it did 20 plus with flop director and it was 4th release of akki last year.
Movie level (only 3 khan’s recent movies)(excluding 3idiots)
1st level- PK, Bajrangi bhaijan
2nd level-Sultan, Dabang, Ghajini
3rd level-Chennai Express, Don 2,ETT
4th level- Jthj, Talaash, Ra.one
5th level-Dhoom 3, Bodyguard, Kick, Fan
6th level-Ready, Dabang 2, Dilwale, Prdp
7th level- Jai Ho, Hny
“Not by actor performance”
In trade as per boi difference between salman and srk point almost double as perjuly 2016 ranking
Huge difference almost double
Big lol
Too much fun
First time in history all 5 days producer figure are less than trade coz its salman movie if its red chilli calculator minimum 20 cr guarantee manipulated
Big lol
Before sultan salman srk and amir have same no of days despite salman have more movies in his kitty but i still remember u said at that time that no 1 come near to salman when it comes to opening??dnt u even know that highest first day and highest first weekend still belongs to srk amir??plzz show some guts and answer this question
Below link for salman hater
Its to show them what called stardom and fan craze I can gureentee you if u show is crze like for srk we salman fan will except till don’t compare salman stardom with loser srk stardom
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PM3Aykg-Z1k
Too much fun
Dangal will make at least 2 – 30crs+ on Christmas 2nd day and 3rd day.
3rd day will cross 40crs first time according to BOI
Thanks

Akshay kabhi is list me nhi aasakta the reason is simple everyone is bored of him watching him 3 to 4 time in a every year most of his movies crap some of them average …. so where d hell his stardom ….. If u compare it wid others…… This year v he already did 2 films one more is ready on 15 August than list is endless movies for mindless actor …. This independent day he vl run 4 money like he was when ouatm2 was released …..
People have started wanting for content nowadays,,,,,,,,,most youngsters find Hahk very boring…..the next gen. Wont remember wanted, dabbang, ready, etc etc
lets see those movies of aamir next gen will enjoy like we enjoy mugle aajam, sholay etc.
Aamir-qsqt, dil, sarfarosh, jjws, lagaan, DCH, RDB,tzp, 3i, pk
srk- darr, baazigar, ddlj, dtph, kkhh, veer zaara, swadesh, CDI, anjaam, dilse
PS hahk gets way too less rating in tv….and masala films except ghajini, om santi om are all instant wonders……
Salman-maine pyaar kiya,mujhse shaadi karoge, tere naam, dabbang, bajrangi bhaaizan
Movies like ddlj; kkhh, 3 idiots, even raja hindustani are evergreen……they score high trp in tv
who on earth today excpet some grandmothers like HAHAK
14 songs, flowless story, no good locations,, SALMAN looked to be an ornament only,,,,only smiling thruout,,,,,believe me even SALMAN Fans dont like it
in todays generation people find Mohra way more better than SHAADI KI DVD….its legecy is limited to Box office only……..and also in marriage where thpse songsare played
and had DDLJ had a bigger heroine, as kajol had one mere sucess , bigger screens(given yrf had only one hit in 6 yrs i.e. darr ddlj was released in limited screen),, any 9 more songs(in 90s people went to see movies just for songs,,,,,though ddlj songs are superhit) and no issue of black ticketing,,,,,,hahk would be a history at the box office
sallu was 6 yrs old, already had 3 to 4 hits,,,,,madhuri could give a blockbuster all on her own and save the grace of hero(beta, khalnayak, saajan) and it had 14 songs,,enough for then audience to go to watch
ddlj is evergreen movie………..dont compare it with any marriage dvd
In eid day govt gives a national holiday, but acc to Indicine, bhaifans, komal-taran
6th july; partial holiday,,well most bhaifans say full non holiday
same goes for 7th
so when is EID????In january 2017 directly????
@sukhen he does 4 films a year. Ask your so called superstars to do 4 films. They will not even cross 15 cr
Hold on!!! Where is Akki in this list? Oops I can’t find him anywhere here. Let me check him once again. Again couldn’t find hI’m. Isn’t he jungle ka sher and bla bla bla? LOL on @Unbearable Gobar one of his most foolish, illiterate fans who bark on Much bigger stars’ articles. Aukaat aukaat ki baat hai. That’s why akki is called (and rightfully) as joker boy.
@indicine…why you didn’t do 25+cr? Were you ashamed that others actors would look timid? Why?
You should give the deserved actor some recognition…but who cares about recognition from @indicine when the world know the fact….THE BIGGEST MEGASTAR can’t be ignored…he makes the STAT talk to you…he will give you the unheard of STAT that you will be forced to say that there is none , was none and will be none ..HE IS THE BHAI….THE MEGASTAR BHAI …..SALMAN BHAI!!!!
@challa
Yes salmans few films will be remebered by pluto peoples. Bt world will always remember followimg movies
1-HNY for diwali torture plus records of manupulation
2-jab tak he jaan giving best sleep ever in theatee
3-dilwale shameless flop n defeat by new star on crismas. Epic defeat of arrogance n fake stardome
4-fan -for being a flop inspite of having 3.5 billion fans of pluto and uranus.
CAN YOU PLEASE CHANGE 11 TO 12….BELOW IS YOUR LIST:
1. Prem Ratan Dhan Payo 41.75 cr (first day) Salman Khan
2. Bajrangi Bhaijaan 38.75 cr (third day) Salman Khan
3. Sultan 38.21 cr (fifth day) Salman Khan
4. Sultan 37.32 (second day) Salman Khan

@Kaali Aatma is crying ! :-D :-D Salman Khan the Baap of bollywood !
MOHENJO DARO , 400 Cr
currently Sultan getting affect by piracy leak on Internet!!! so Sad! and after first week it will get affect by GGM. double Sad.
1 thing is for sure…Salman will not work with Ali Abbas Zafar again.
The week days collection are falling that is why.
When he worked with Kabir Khan, movie became ATBB twice.
That is why he is working with Kabir Khan again next year.
Aamir also working with Raju Hirani multiple times for the same reason.
“The 30 crs single day is an elite club only meant for the)t superstars in the industry.
Apart from them no any actor has even collected more 25 crs till date.”
Quote of d year…
End of discussion for lifetime,am no longer going to bring myself into childish argument henceforth.. At least all d times wen I alwAys specify that people think it’s a piece of cake or nothing special or am just saying it…I know what it takes to open with 3 billion rupees.
Now be it historians ,1st time Bollywood trade site visitors and co ..nobody will ever foolishly bring “lucky it was National day or franchise.we already saw what happened with some few smaller actors when given national,eid Xmas Diwali..we have also seen why franchise should not be a criteria. After all movies like aab tak chappan and housefull 3 franchise did not live up to their initial brand movies.
Some ppl say “indicine already said Mr x is bigger than Mr Y. Following that logic I can also say @indicie said “for the fact that these superstars have either once or 5 times done that ie (Ajay Hrithik) or usual suspects Shah Salman Aamir more time they are with that according @indicine the 5 biggest superstars. Since they did not even say a defense word for akki ..it sums up the FACT.
Akki Ranveer Ranbir Varun Shahid Did ..pls fasten your seatbelts…to break into 22cr(only Ranbir) club. The fact that be it franchise or lesser Edx or even Edx…it shows these celebs can alwAys be affiliated wit that ELITE club all things being equal. You can now see why Trade gives some celebrities a nod to release their movies that period keeping in mind it has never stopped any body by force not to release that period. Beechara Khiladhi
LOL…Now indicine will make @ akkiholic sunny talk utter baseless points but of no use….
