Shah Rukh Khan, who enjoyed considerable success at the box office this year with films like Pathaan and Jawan, is facing a potential challenge with his latest release, Dunki Box Office Collection, directed by Rajkumar Hirani. Despite a grand opening at Mumbai’s Gaiety Galaxy, the film’s initial reports by Sacnilk indicate a more modest first-day Dunki box office collection, estimated to be around Rs 30 crore. The morning and afternoon shows recorded occupancies of 26.45% and 21.77%, respectively, resulting in an overall Hindi occupancy of about 24.11%. Given that Dunki hits theatres on a regular workday, the film is optimistic about gaining momentum over the forthcoming Christmas weekend.
Dunki Box Office Vs Salaar
However, the Dunki box office collection faces a formidable contender in Prashanth Neel’s and Prabhas ‘Salaar’, which is scheduled for release on Friday. Salaar has already generated significant buzz before its opening, amassing an impressive Rs 35.23 crore from the sale of 16,83,871 tickets. Despite getting a mixed response from critics and audiences, Dunki is determined to navigate the competitive landscape as it strives for success in the dynamic and bustling world of Bollywood, contending with other releases in the process. The movie is in a tricky situation as it tries to find its place among tough competition and mixed opinions from different parts of the audience.
