Sultan has collected Rs 36.54 crore on its opening day at the box office, as per official figures released by Yash Raj Films. The film was extraordinary at multiplexes, with multiplex chains recording the single highest day collections of all time, but it looks like the ‘Pre Eid’ factor has affected single-screen business, especially at muslim-dominated areas.
Sultan has recorded the 3rd highest opening day collections of all time, behind Happy New Year and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo. The first day collections are at around the same level as Dhoom 3, which released on a non-holiday.
IndicineFBO: We predicted Rs 38.5 crore as the first day collections of Sultan (Read our prediction article). The film has collected Rs 36.54 crore. The difference between our prediction and the actual collection is just 5% making it one of our most accurate predictions this year.

Komal Nahta tweet
‘My early estimate is 43 crore’
Kamaal karte ho naahta chahu
yesterday was 70 percent eid all over India and 100 pc in Mumbai
now it will be wom not stardom
With a huge stardom and high talk 36.54cr …
If proofs that it is truly fake that 44.9cr by HNY a 3hr movie can’t do such type of business
There are 3 jokes of yesterday and those have
become the jokes of the decade…
1) 41… 42… 43…
ROFL…
2) 50+ Crores on opening day on cards…
ROFL…
3) Gigantic, Earth Shattering, Best Ever Opening
With 90% Occupancy All Over And Night Shows
Are Full With 100% Occupancy… All Records
Including Opening Day Record Are In Danger…
History Will Be Written Surely…
B.L.O.C.K.B.U.S.T.E.R… 4,00,000 Tickets Sold
Out… 5,100 Screens Worldwide… 5 Stars In
Overseas… Ticket Price Hiked Even Rs. 900… Bla
Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla…
And Result???

ROFL…
Bhai’s pre Eid/Ramdan release SULTAN has thrashed the opening day collections duniya ka sabse bada superstar’s HNY. What’s more required to be considered a Megastar???
P.S- Actual collections, not inflated one!!!
The biggest irony is that some jokerwalas are blabbering on 36.5cr opening day collections of SULTAN while their 80cr club’s king yet to touch 20cr mark on opening day…LOL.
Why is your collection lower than other??
There are some people who mock the Raped Victims by giving useless statement and do harassment and abuse the women and don’t know how to feel shame on themselves and how to respect women in the world… After All, They have forgot that it was a woman who gave birth to them…
But, At same time, There is a man like Akki Bhai, Who has been initiating for Women Self Defence and working a lot on this social cause and as well making all active to held such trainings and tournaments and this lead giving strength to woman so that the proper reply can be given to such statement givers…
I hope, You all understood what I mean?
@javed we dont think all that nonsense thing if ur srk have power in thier- then y hee does not released raess
just one word: pity :'( ?
And still indicine wordings will remain same when it comes to oppening no one is near to salman lolzzz srk didnt get bajrangi or pk plus favourable realease date from last few years when it all matches then we will talk about stardom
@spamzone 3:50pm
4350 screens, all time high ticket price, favourable genre, 80% occupancy still it failed to touch 40cr mark on opening day.
But HNY released on just 3900 screens, much lower ticket price compared to SULTAN with similar kind of occupancy collected huge 45cr on opening day.
How could it possible without the mammoth manipulation???
/*And now, since the actual collections of Sultan are out , “Hats off bhaijan, you are so honest” (Though producer is YRF:)*/
So, according to you SULTAN collections are actual. That’s mean indirectly you are admitting that HNY opening day collections are not actual. Therefore manipulated!
Murga fass gaya…Hahaha.
Opening day collections are phenominal considering that 3.7 billion Loongiwalas have been campaigning to boycott SULTAN…LOL.
@indicine:
Please tell the opening day occupancy of HNY, PRDP & SULTAN. It’s a humble request!
Sultan opening day collection is The another proof of HNY’s huge Manipulation….
@jc,@tiger-the real chuha,pity on loser stardom of phultan.so your excuses started fully fledged?????,rofl.
@tiger estimated 48cr and also estimated more than double collection of FAN OPENING?but got Navajo ka thili just like how he did 60cr opening for prdp,rofl.
still you’re giving excuses even though GOVT. declared it fully HOLIDAY AS EID?????so you think only due to muslim salman’s films runs as you claimed many Muslims can’t watch the movie on 1st day?????,rofl.
Now only excuses left before you KING SRK manipulated figure,rofl.ab apni star kam ka nahi raha toh kuch toh bola padega na?????shame on bhojpuri stardom ,rofl.
@jc,btw you salman fans too predicted CE will be a flop on EID,but IT BECOMES ATHG BY FACING 3 FILMS IN 3 WEEKS.how many sallu movies broken records and become ATHG with out EID even not facing any release for 3 week run?????so my zero.n ow you could have easily guess who is EID dependent star and WHO IS REAL MEGASTAR(KING SRK),ROFL.
SRK fans… will u tell me one thing…
Screen Count – Sultan > HNY
Ticket Price – Sultan > HNY
Film Shows – Sultan > HNY
Occupancy – Sultan > HNY.
but still HNY – 45 crs & Sultan – 36 crs.
How ???… heheheh
u all are making fun of sultan n salman by saying, “Sultan failed to break HNY’ s opening day record despite releasing in more screens than HNY and hiked ticket price”
lol… actually u ain’t making fun of Salman u all r speaking the bitter n sour truth that HNY manipulated a huge numbers…
okay okay u only tell us how HNY collected such numbers despite such reasons mentioned above…
This another proof like PRDP which indicates HNY manipulated a huge money.
Yesterday one of the Morons of Salmoron was muttering…
“The online shopping sites got jammed due to order of burnols in large number…”
Yes, The orders were placed in large numbers and the all burnols distributed to Behna’s Bhaiyya here after disclosing the first day collection of Loltan…
ROFL…
Salman has once again proved that he is undisputed box office king. Biggest crowd puller in india for a reason. 4 35 cr+ single day collections belong to him. So no doubt he is biggest currently. SRK is nothing in front of him. Only Aamir can compete with salman. Waiting for Dangal. And yeah, I have booked my tickets for this saturday.
Srk fans just better shut their mouth and get lost. Srk’s disaster fan will be surpassed within next 40 hours. One fluke opening doesn’t make srk biggest star. Also it had deepika. But what after that? His both next films dilwale and fan failed to give even 22 cr opening. Shame. Get lost you losers. Salman Is much bigger star than srk. Period.
Guys, Now that was his real meaning of feeling
like a Raped Woman…
“He dream 45 Crores and settled with 35
Crores…”
Now, What he said few days back, His condition
is just like his statement… “Feeling like a raped
woman…” I do more correct… “Feeling like a
cheated woman…”
ROFL…
Look at the comment section all haters are burning trying there best to show that all is not well with sultan
2 things
The collections are actuals and not the inflated ones as done by queen bee
All of them are aware of the fact sultan is on the way of being next salman blockbuster
Haters such as xzone nd fasial kerla keep burning we can understand your queen just had Disater Phanka
Heeee heee
Too much fun
Sultan is the next ALL TIME BLOCKBUSTER
@unmatchable akki,too good yaar,rofl.
@amir khan,don’t use the name of Amir Khan.He is a class actor and his fans too are classic.so chameleon use your real I’d and don’t try to hide behind amir’s name.
And things you have mentioned,who knows YRF may would have given wrong occupancy report to break HNY FIGURE.I think looking at phultan ‘s figure the occupancy of phultan is only 60%.
YRF fed media to over hype phultan.at the end of the day both salman and YRF fooled by the audience,rofl.
Prdp occupancy —-BEST 70%,phultan occupancy —-BEST 60%.salman for fed to media with wrong information and media over hyped it.so media made salman you can’t fool PEOPLES.PEOPLES LOVE ONLY BADSHAH KHAN not a criminal non actor like you.
While HNY’S OCCUPANCY IS AROUND80% or above.
THIS IS THE REAL OCCUPANCY LOOKING AT THE COLLECTION.salman is paying media to over hype the occupancy.
Peoples they’re trying to fool you.please boycott phultan and punish this non actor’s biggest mahacrap who insulted WOMEN and degraded our country in front of the world.let’s unitedly come and show this non actor’s aukat by boycotting this mahacrap phultan.
JAI HIND.
@xzone : Thanks !!
People here just blindly blabbering without knowing facts. Wednesday, July 6th was not a holiday, even Govt of India and many state govts cancelled holiday and scheduled it on Thursday, July 7th due to non sighting of moon. Even if we take it as partial holiday it is way ahead of FAN opening which was released on a partial holiday. I am quoting this considering genre, screens, opening & ticket prices. First learn the difference between a full fledged holiday & a partial or non holiday. PRDP failed to beat HNY which is a kind of similar comparison if we overlook the genre difference !!!!!!!! Illiterates must learn the difference first.
@Kaali : Thank you
@mekanik:
4350 screens, all time high ticket price, favourable genre, 80% occupancy still it failed to touch 40cr mark on opening day.
But HNY released on just 3900 screens, much lower ticket price compared to SULTAN with similar kind of occupancy collected huge 45cr on opening day.
How could it possible without the mammoth manipulation???
Hahaha… Now those morons are trying to make fun on SULTAN & Bhai whose idol yet give a 150cr grosser to match stardom of Kangna Ranaut & 20+cr opening day to match the stardom of Ranbir kapur. What an irony!!!… LOL.
