Salman Khan’s Sultan was extraordinary yet again on its 5th day at the box office. The growth in business is decent (2 – 5 – 10%), which in itself is outstanding because the film was running at insanely high levels of occupancy throughout the weekend.
The fact that collections actually improved on Sunday is a big plus for the film and sets it up quite well for the test on Monday.
As per early estimates, Sultan has collected Rs 39 crore on Sunday at the box office. The film was record-breaking at multiplexes – with a majority of shows running to running to 100% occupancy from morning to night. There was a small dip late night, which tends to happen for most releases on Sunday.
More importantly, the first extended weekend of Sultan has delighted exhibitors all over the country. At several small centres, the film was sold out for the entire weekend with centres recording 100% occupancy for the entire weekend. These were centres that were running to very low occupancy over the weekend for most films this year.
The first extended weekend collections has crossed the 180 crore mark for the first time ever. The collections of films like Dhoom 3 and Bajrangi Bhaijaan was at this level for the entire first week.
Sultan was one of the fastest films to the 100 crore club, it was the fastest to 150 crore and it’ll now, most certainly, become the fastest to 200 crore too. Can it do so in 6 days i.e by tomorrow? That’s the big question. If it does manage to hold strongly from Monday to Thursday, Sultan will have very high chances of surpassing PK to become the highest grosser of all time. That’s the only feather missing in Salman Khan’s cap – ever since he began the decade of utter domination.
Sultan Box Office Collections
- Wednesday – 36.54 crore
- Thursday – 37.32 crore

- Saturday – 37.10 crore

@bajaj Aww..so nice of you to come up with your own conclusion regarding my predicament but no I have been as honest as possible and majority of Srkians also praised BB during its release so I don’t have to worry about their reactions.

Hope you post my comment and not keep into moderation for long.

@2:46pm Sarkar The Queen of Pluto
We will answer your Q without hesitation provided you answer us as to why Sarkar was allowed to treat employees of Wankhede like his personal slaves in particular the Wankhede Assault case of 2012….?
Aamir n Salman are setting new records in domestic n overseas markets- records which Teesra Khan took 20 long boring yrs setting but now are being thrashed within opening wknds/ weeks..!
Too much fun
Historic…First 5 days(180)
still i dnt think..sultan wil beat pk…becoz sultan may slow down after the initial craze
@eNViouS
You being a notorious chameleon Im shocked to see you cannot differentiate between genuine Aamir fans n chameleon mischief makers….!
Worry less about the snakes n worry more about controlling your own dark dirty cardinal desires to once again don your chameleon mask here…!
345cr WW total after 5 days
Awesome
@indicine when will you make a day by day comparison of sultan, pk and bajrangi bhaijaan?
Sultan now has the four days among the top ten single days in history. The only other fim to get more than one day is Bajrangi Bhaijaan Below are the top ten single days in history.
1. Prem Ratan Dhan Payo Day One – 39.32 crore
2. Bajrangi Bhaijaan Day Three – 38.53 crore
3. Sultan Day Five – 38.25 crore apprx
4. PK Day Three – 38.24 crore
5. Sultan Day Two – 37.25 crore apprx
6. Sultan Day One – 36.59 crore
7. Sultan Day Four – 36.50 crore apprx
8. Happy New Year Day One – 36.31 crore
9. Bajrangi Bhaijaan Day Two – 36.17 crore
10. Dhoom 3 Day 3 – 34.15 crore
The only record that the film did not smash was the opening day one or the single highest day one and that would have happened if Eid did not come a day late. A 40 crore barrier is proving elusive and it seems the wait will have to continue as nothing coming soon seems to have the potential to go that far.
Salman Khan broke the 20 crore nett barrier 2011 (Bodyguard) and then the 30 crore nett (Ek Tha Tiger) in 2013 and despite Prem Ratan Dhan Payo and Sultan missing by small margins he is still probably the best bet to go through this elusive 40 crore nett mark unless other actors can up their game.
That is bhijan power….
I like this movie….
I love you bhijan…..
carry on continue?
You are king of box office…..
I am srk fans feels sad for Srk who unable to achieve what sallubhai achieved. 4 all time blockbuster. Just wow. Unmatchable with any international star. Forget srk or Aamir. Hats off to u. True legend and king of box office. Prem is Bajarangi Sultan who kick everybody.
Indicine please allow this comment , I want the budda navin to read it.
@Navin the chu, arei oo the grand old aunty of indicine , the only reason I was patient with u till now is bcos u r a Salman Khan fan but enough is enough now , u unnecessary involved me many times , I have lost my patience with u.
Have some manners & show some respect u idiot.
You blame me as chameleon without any proof or evidence! if u were in front of me I would have kicked ur dirty old as like a donkey .
U don’t even show respect or care about the fellow salman fans let alone others , u r such a big clown & jerk.
u r a one obnoxious arrogant retro-retarded foolish useless shtty loser individual who at the age of 90 wants to behave like a teenager itching with testosterone, try to behave according to ur age and learn how to respect & treat others , u r already a big laughing stock , a silly torture & a foolish clown on indicine so don’t embarrass urself more by disrespecting others and blaming others without any reason.
Don’t again take my name from ur dirty old mouth u idiot..
@navin bawra ho gaya hai key???
Maar Khake Hi Manega key???
@Legend, I was away from indicine for few weeks because I was quite busy with my schedule, who are you barking against me? I don’t have any interest bashing someone who is not even near the shoes of my favorite megastar. Some one who doesn’t even know how to act and change proper expressions. And lol on you for saying salman is biggest crowd puller in india. Yes, that’s why he has been unable to give ATHG sonce 1994. In the same country he has given highest no of flops and disasters among all superstars. He is just lucky that the real biggest megastar does only 1 film at a time and takes too long for his other priorities. Aamir is biggest megastar according to me and many. Wait for Dangal you chameleon. And see how it smashes all these records. By the way you are perfect piece of chameleon who is actually a bhojpuri pretending to be Aamir fan. Get lost.
@indicine wow. I rightfully abused that creature @Legend and you censored my abuses? Shame on your unethical work. Kindly post my original comment and show @legend’s aukaat.
@Legend luckily you dumbass got saved thanks to indicine. I abused you like hell but indicine saved your as.
