Despite being in its fourth week, Pathaan is still performing well and is projected to earn an additional Rs. 35-40 crores before concluding its theatrical run at around Rs. 1035-1040 crores. That won’t make any changes to the film’s ranking as, KGF 2 currently holds the third spot (for now, as RRR is expected to cross it with its ongoing run in Japan) with a lead of nearly Rs. 150 crores.

It is also worth mentioning that box office numbers reported in China are inclusive of online ticket booking charges. You may have read about Dangal crossing Rs. 2000 crores worldwide, but that is including around Rs. 95 crores of online ticket booking charges in China. The figures mentioned above reflect purely GROSS box office collections of the films and include only their gross earnings in the Chinese market, exclusive of any additional charges.
