Akshay Kumar’s Rustom is all set to emerge a ‘Super Hit’ at the domestic box office, as the film was outstanding on the partial holiday for Raksha Bandhan. The film has collected Rs 8.62 crore on Thursday, taking its first week total above the 90 crore mark.
Rustom is the highest ever first week total for a film starring Akshay Kumar in the lead. The film will cross the 100 crore mark by the end of its second weekend (outside chance of doing so tomorrow itself) and also become the third consecutive 100 crore grosser for the superstar. It’s a record that no other actor in the industry has achieved.
Looking at the strong hold of Rustom on 2nd Friday, the film could challenge the lifetime business of films like Airlift and Rowdy Rathore to become the highest ever grosser for Akshay.
The new release this week – Happy Bhaag Jayegi – has opened poorly and Rustom is running at 2-3 times the occupancy at multiplexes as compared to the new release. Some shows in metro cities were houseful even on the 8th day.

KHILADI of BOX OFFICE
Rustom success reason whole bollywood supported it Tera sang yera become chatbust Trailler received good response excellent marketting campain(srk type) plus patriotic theme bost it on independence weekned release where everything against mohenjodaro expect higher screen count
Two 200 cr grossers in a year no one has achieved so far. Its a record no one has achieved so far.
#salmankhan #superstardom
King Akki..
Outside chance? With just 9 crore to do in 2 days, it should reach 100 cr tomorrow. Gearing up for Shivaay now.
Congratulations, Rustom Team. Now waiting for Shivaay & Dangal :)
Akshay always surprises, earlier with low collections and now with high collections.
No one expected Rustom will lead by distance or even perceived as 80cr Semi HIT.
Happy to see He is back to his big league after the big fat 8 years struggle
More than jadootards why I m seeing these assrkians burning?????
Lol kya hua Bhai ???
Rumors is Srk in Dhoom4 as there is tiff between aditya and Sallu regarding script.
@romance zindagi
Whole Bollywood supported CE
Music was chartbuster
Trailer was received well too
Released on a big festival like eid
Deepika padukone
Everything was against ouatimd
So we should say that all the factors are bigger than srk stardom????
But by the way why is ur ass burning ???
Airlift week 1 – 83 in similar screens while Rustom 90 in similar screens ,Rustom had better trailer or I’ll say more commercial trailer. So both movie have performed equally well.
But some ppl here are reacting like Airlift week1 was 50 and Rustom week1 was 200 . So many knucleheads here …!
3000cr when?????
Where is indian cinema boxoffice calculator???
According to BOI…
#SALMAN HAS 10 100CRORE GROSSER.
#AKSHAY (RUSTOM WILL EASILY CROSS ) & SRK HAS 6.

&
AJAY….2
ACCORDING TO OFFICIAL FIGURES.
SALMAN – 10
AKSHAY AND SRK – 6

AJAY – 5
HIGHT OF MANIPULATION
Big congratz akki fans Two 200 cr grossers in a year no one has achieved so far only Megastar Salman khan superstardom King off Box office
Jolly llb 2 will be megaflop.
@Romance zindagi
Whole bollywood supported bangistaan on twitter, result 1 crore opening:FLOP.
Extreme marketed campaign : Shandaar; FLOP
Patriotic theme? Akshay told every1 wherever he prompted :; it’s romance/thriller than?
Shandaar had more popular songs than Rustom :FLOP tell me more reasons of hit and I will prove you STUPID again .
I m big fan akki sir.. but I love also Hrithik sir… both are super star ?… love u both alws
Akki is real beggar, begging all stars to promote his film to give a hit.
Hahah.. @Rustom Sunny.. just few days back you were quoting BOI numbers to Indicine.. and you even brought Krrish numbers to 12 crore after removing holiday when it was not even holiday….
Today you are quoting fake inflated numbers of Singh Is Bling?? Go and check its 16 with Gandhi Jayatni holiday.. which is just 10 without holiday…. Lol.
HF3 was 15 almost same Welcome Back without Akki. So HF3 without Akki would still be same opening.
Talk to me when Akki movies does opening day of 20 with or without holiday.. Sunday and other days don’t matter.. opening Akki is in Varun Dhawan league.
One film makes no difference that too when it was against a movie that had rejected trailer.. No Akki film has opened well after Rowdy Rathore…. even for this he needed entire industry and Salman to support him. Lol
Box Office is unpredictable , and #Rustom proves that. Well done.
A man who is trolled till last year as a 70cr guy, now have already given 3 superhits in d span of 8 months.
But still feeling sad because of d debacle of MD , but as we know superstars always back with a bang.
@neerja
Dishoom opening 11cr
Hrithik after 2 years 8.5cr ..!!!
So varun >>>>>>>>> Hrithik
Both movies trailer got highly mixed reactions…!!!
That is why he is called khiladi
@neeraj:first tell ur hrithik to release movies in non holiday.without franchise and big holiday period we all know his aukaat.tell hr to score 3 hundred cr grossers in a single year.
@neerja by the way your daddy boi reduced Singh is Bling opening day collections from 19.35 to 16.9 …!!!!!
Which is not the case with k3 and bang bang..
And second thing bark as much as you can k3 and bang bang figures are manipulated
Why all these fights?
Akki just won the battle, fair and square.
What happened before or what will happen in future is not relevant today.
Today Akki has won. Period.
@neerja
Whole industry also supported bang bang against haider…!!!
Hrithik took the support of uday chopra
So this means Hrithik is nothing without uday chopra.. isn’t???
Akshay fans stop jumping. Don’t forget about Joker, it was much bigger disaster than Mohenjo.
