Son Of Sardar has exceeded expectations on Day 1 as the film collected Rs 9 crore nett, despite competition from a big release like Jab Tak Hai Jaan.
Business has remained steady today for the morning shows (slight drop in Mumbai), while afternoon shows had better occupancy compared to yesterday.
North India is outstanding for Son Of Sardaar, as the film is the first choice at most single screens. We expect the second day collections to be around 13-15 crores nett.
Son Of Sardar is the Ajay Devgn’s second biggest opener after Bol Bachchan, which released earlier this year. In 2012, it’s the 9th highest opening day and ranks 22 in the all time list.

col. will slow down from today onward movie has poor script bad direction tho ajay is gud 1.5/5 dnt waste ur money ;)
@indicine…….taran adrash and komal nahta are reporting more than 15 cr for jthj?
Fultu entertainment dhamal. Loved the picture, seen with family. Clean family entertainer.
content is poor,ajay cant judge a sardar role very well,wont work,dont waste ur money
And no. Of viewer are more for sos . . Bcoz majority people will be single screen audience. . And ticket price wil around 50 to 80rs . . And whereas jthj wil be multiplex audience . . And ticket price is around 200 to 300rs and yrf increased ticket price too. . . So sos is clear winner in al terms . .
@ Indicine & @ john: yeah, I also read in twitter, that JTHJ has collected 15.23 crores in India.
@Anupama, that’s the official figure from Yashraj :)
@indicine, did JTHJ collected 13cr or 15cr??
@Abdul, it’s around 13 crores. Actuals will be updated soon. Yashraj official figure is 15.23 cr.
So it’s crystal clear JTHJ will rule dis Diwali!!!
@rowdy, haha u lost the bet. Well next time prepare we’ll if u want to challenge me for a bet..
Ajay Sir…..SOS Rocks….You Rocks….Sonakshi Rocks….Sanjay Rocks…….AND CHULBUL PANDEY ROXX
Well 9+ crore is an excellent opening for sos competiting against jthj with lesser number of screens. Sos is a family entertainer whereas jthj is a good typical old love story presented in a modern way by yashji. I dont want to say anything against jthj as it is a yashji’s film but the jthj vs SOS competition is like TEST MATCH vs T20 MATCH.
hey guys just see book my show …theaters in north & central india (upto karnataka) where both sos & jthj have screens….sos leads for today & tommorow….so just think if sos would have got equal screens then jthj wouldn’t even have crossed 90 crores!….but still looking at the response sos has received jthj won’t cross ra.one….also overseas collection of jthj are not that good( lower than ett & don2)….now i think it is pack up time for srk..!
Wht a joke yrf official collection is around 2.73cr higher than boi only in day 1. . Whereas ett was only 1.67cr higher . .
And also ett collection was very high was around 31.25 to 32.92cr. . . if there comes 1.67cr difference in such big figure then its not a big issue. . . But whereas jthj its around 12.5cr to 15.23cr . . If there comes 2.73cr difference in such smal figure then there must be something wrong. . . Wht u say indicine. .
just came back from SOS wat a piece of crap. I am a die hard Aamir Khan fan but love Ajay devgan i dont know why he did this badly scripted movie. Even its telugu original maryada ramana was not a blockbuster. Waste of Money and more importantly time
sos have won the match
@indicine then why don’t you update official figures. what’s difference between yashraj official figures and actual figures. it’s confusing. can you please enplane?
@all srk fans …u all are so much pathetic fans!… when ett released you all said that taran adarsh & komal nahata are not accurate & only boxoffice india is right but..when ur loser actors film performs badely u immediately say komal & taran are right & boi is wrong…..such pathetic & losers u are….if any1 doesnt beleive then just browse through ett pages…..plz indicine dont delete this comment….let other actor fans read this…loser srk & his fans!
This excellent opening collection of sos, depesite negativity created by srk fans towards sos and also with lesser no. of screens. Major are single screens. Who is called jthj is class movie? With another foolish type of love triangle and boring acting,this is not class only BAKWAS. SOS is perfect DIWALI entertainer.
Hey guys relax- we all love our heroes the same & if our heroes can get along amicably then why cant we get along peacefully too? For the record I feel SOS perhaps is not as good a film as Ajays last but the director then was Rohit Shetty who himself as his own identity but still SOS was funny in parts. Worth a watch & now I will watch JTHJ this weekend. God bless us all.
even if it’s around 13.25 cr, still taran or komal will be main trade expert press will quote. BOI is ok with giving numbers but they suck at verdicts. for example Hit film earning double the cost is termed as above average, movie earning below its total cost is a hit aka ra1.
sos is a real winner..screen ratio was 30-70% in jthj’s favor in single screens…and the figure is out..only 4 cr difference ..it says a lot tht despite more screens srk’s movie didnt impress…and we r damn sure after 15th nov SOS WILL SURPASS JTHJ..
