Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif's Bharat has minted over Rs 70 crores in the first two days and looks like the film is quickly inching towards the 100 crore mark with the collection from the third day. The film has already gotten Khan a record-breaking opening as far as Bollywood is concerned and the festive release definitely turned out a huge advantage. Despite India's first match in ICC World Cup 2019 falling on the same day, turns out fans weren't all that divided in their opinion as far as picking between the two goes.
Now, with a collection of over Rs. 30 crores on the second day (we reported an estimate of 28 to 30 crores), the early estimates reveal that the film will mint anything between Rs 22 crores to Rs 24 crores on its third day! With the weekend here, we can be rest assured that the film is not going to suffer just as much with X Men Dark Phoenix having released on Friday. With the figures running as close to 95 crores, looks like it is just a matter of time until we here the happy news of the film hitting the 100 crore mark.
Salman Khan had thanked fans for giving him his 'sabse bada opening' and wrote, "Big thk u sabko fr giving sabse bada opening mere career ka par what made me the happiest & proudest is ki during a scene in my film jab national anthem is recited ev1 stood up as a mark of respect. There could be no bigger respect for our country than this... Jai Hind #Bharat."
