With its strong box office performance, Simmba has now gone ahead of Badhaai Ho ( 137.59 crore) and Stree ( 129.90 crore) to emerge as the sixth biggest hit of 2018. Sanju, Padmaavat, Race 3, Baaghi 2 and Thugs of Hindostan are ahead of the Ranveer Singh starrer in terms of earnings.

In addition to Simmba’s 150 crore domestic haul, the Ranveer Singh film has made 60 crore in overseas markets, according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, for an international total of 210 crore in its first week. With no Bollywood competition in its second weekend, director Rohit Shetty’s film could continue building on its momentum.

 

Taran also tweeted that he predicts Simmba to make around 250 crore by the end of its run. The film’s current domestic total, according to him, stands at 150.8 crore.

 

With Simmba, Shetty has become the first Bollywood filmmaker to deliver eight back-to-back films to have crossed the coveted 100 crore mark domestically. His winning streak began with Golmaal 3 in 2010. Ranveer congratulated his ‘bro’ with a message on Instagram. “All hail the blockbuster king! Ro-bro be slamming century after century,” he wrote in all caps.
