Box office numbers
Salaar is expected to have sold 30.5 lakh tickets in advance sales with a collection of ₹95 crore from the pre-booking in India, according to Sacnilk. The film is expected to have done an advance booking of ₹12.77 crore gross on day 2, according to the same website. And on day 1, the film is likely to have scored a gross of ₹175 crores worldwide. Shows began early on Friday from 12:21 AM and the trend is expected to continue through the weekend. The final figures are yet to come in.
Prabhas’ ‘comeback’
Post Baahubali, Prabhas is expected to make it big at the box office for the first time with Salaar. His previous films, Saaho, Radhe Shyam and Adipurush, failed to entertain the audience. The Prashanth directorial, however, seemed tailor-made for him, with the fight sequences and the overall vibe of the film being its USPs.
