It cannot get bigger than Sultan. The biggest star in the industry, the biggest film of the year and the second most successful period for film releases. The buzz is unbelievably high. Ask any exhibitor or anyone else in the trade and he’ll tell you the demand and craze for the film is extraordinary.
Sultan is the first event film of the year too. A film that could shatter box office records, both on its opening day and the extended 5-day weekend.
The current all-time record holders are as follows:
- Highest Opening Day: Happy New Year 44.97 crore
- Highest Single Day: Happy New Year 44.97 crore
- Highest Opening Weekend: Happy New Year 108.86 crore
- Highest Opening Weekend with just one holiday: Dhoom 3 107.61 crore
- Highest First Week: Dhoom 3 188.99 crore
- Highest Grosser of All Time: PK 340 crore
The 2016 record holders are:
- Highest Opening Day 2016: FAN 19.20 crore
- Highest Single Day 2016: Housefull 3 (Sunday) 21.80 crore
- Highest First Weekend 2016: Housefull 3 53.31 crore
- Highest First Week 2016: Airlift 83.5 crore
- Highest Second Weekend 2016: Airlift 19.26 crore
- Highest Second Week 2016: Airlift 28.79 crore
- Highest Grossing film of 2016: Airlift 128.45 crore
All 2016 records won’t just be surpassed, but will be decimated by Sultan. It could double the previous best. Sultan could also become the highest Hindi grosser of 2016 in 5 days or less if the film finds appreciation. Even with average word-of-mouth, it’s a foregone conclusion that the Salman Khan film will race past Airlift.
The targets that can do justice to Salman’s stardom will be those at all-time levels. As far as opening records are concerned, Happy New Year will be the film to beat. When it comes to lifetime, if the word-of-mouth is strong, comparisons will immediately begin with Bajrangi Bhaijaan and PK. If the film gets a mixed response, we could be looking at Chennai Express and Kick. If the film turns out to be very poorly made, then Bodyguard and Dabangg 2 will be more realistic comparisons.
Less than 4 days to go then. Stay tuned to Indicine, we have many more Sultan articles, including a special QnA dedicated only to Salman and Sultan tomorrow.
I m sure Loltan will be Another Marigold Retunrns…. Because The director of Loltan Ali Abbas Zafar is Also the Assistant director Marigold.. Lol…

Records…. Records….Records….. Do you have anything else to say?

Ask any exhibitor or anyone else in the trade and he’ll tell you the demand and craze for the film is extraordinary……
I don’t need to say anything…
Indicine Ne Sab Kuch, Keh Dala…
Aur Khushi Ne, Humein Maar Dala…
Expecting 45+ crore on opening day if Eid falls on 6th July.if eid falls on 7th then opening day should be around 30 crore.
Dear Indicine,
We all would love to watch the records of this Non Actor without EID…
Please work on such article too… LOLxxx…
As of now, every record is achievable except for PK lifetime record.
To break PK record of 339 Crores, it will need a solid content like BB.
Eid Will Most Probably Fall on 7th July, So Opening Day Record Is Going To Be Tough, Feeling Sad :(
@king khan hahaha what a comment bro .
That was really sth !!!
@I am a bloody hypocrite Fasal Kerala is back with his hypocrisy and dumb arse remarks as always.
For those of you who are accusing indicine as being paid by Salman a few months back they were also accused as being an SRK site and being paid heavily.
As for breaking records one thing I am certain of where Salman is concerned. He is only interested in his own records, he does not care other than if his fans love his movies, haters don’t matter they are just people who fall by the wayside.
It’s the trade etc who are interested in records and that’s what they do. But for us fans it’s only Salman and his films don’t give a hoot about anything else.
All the records will be gone once MIGHTY SULTAN arrives
Plz read my comment that i posted on this post and give me reply coz i think you are biggest fan of SRK..post is posted by AMIT and related to HNY opening day collection..
As expected indicine is overpromoting chustom and spreading negativity on mohenjo i will not be surprised if indicine will give mihenjo verdict as avg ir above avg even if it collects 200 crores and chustom verdict as superhit even with 80 crores.. Guys lallu had secretly met joker kumar to clash his chustom with mohenjo . i challenge lallu khan to clash his movies with other films!! Oh i forgot lallu khan can only release movies on eid!! Pathetic lallu khan will be over soon!!!
Always over hyping salman by calling him biggest star in the industry which he is not. What record does he have? Highest opening Day record belongs to shahrukh khan and highest grosser of all time record belongs to Aamir khan. So wherected on earth is salman biggest star? He is one of the biggest stars not the biggest star. And also how foolishly you are calling sultan biggest film of the year when we have dangal releasing on christmas. Dangal is the biggest film of the year not sultan. Dangal has the biggest star in the industry who has given 4 ATHG in last 8 years only. So stop such crap idiotic nonesense over hyping of sultan. Dangal will thrash all records. Mark my words.
Mark my words, despite having two holidays in first week, Sallu ka Sulthana will not cross Dhoom 3 first week figure, with higher ticket price, way higher screen count, smaller time duration.
Because, box office ka Raja ek hi hain. Wo hain: Aamir Khan.
#Dangal 23rd Dec
Hny 1st day collection is 37.52 cr nt 45 cr which has already beaten by pk 3rd day(normal sunday) 38.45 cr and bb 38.75cr.it is practically impossible to achieve 45 cr even in 100% occupancy .accordind to real figures each and every record belongs to Salman and Aamir khan.manipulators need 10 cr per day to match aamir and salman’s stardom.
