Bollywood 'Pathan' stormed the box office, creating another record

Indian film superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Pathan’ is breaking many records at the box office. It has been 7 days since the release of the movie, and ‘Pathan’ is constantly breaking records at the box office.

‘Pathan’ has become the fastest film to enter the 300 crore club in India. Earlier, this record was held by the Hindi version of Baahubali 2, which took 10 days to reach 300 crores. But Shahrukh’s Pathan has crossed 300 crore mark at the box office in 7 days.

According to Hollywood Hungama, Pathan’s 7-day total collection in India is 330.25 crores. Bollywood experts have estimated that the movie will soon cross the mark of 400 crores due to the overwhelming response.

The film ‘Pathan’ has also become the biggest opener of Indian cinema. Apart from this, Pathan has also become the highest-grossing film of Shah Rukh Khan’s career.

Directed by Siddharth Anand, Pathan stars Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham in lead roles. Apart from Hindi, this film has also been released in Tamil and Telugu languages.

Talking about the past four years, Shah Rukh Khan said at the success press conference on Monday, “The four years that I had… Covid had good and bad parts. I didn’t work. I was with my children. I saw them grow up. My last film had not worked and people had said my movies now won’t work. So, I thought of an alternate career: cooking Italian.”

“In these four days, I’ve forgotten my last four years,” he added. Shah Rukh Khan further said, “The three of us did not meet the media. We shot it (Pathaan) during Covid-19. We worked very hard. So, we were intensely in work mode. Thank you for supporting the film so much, in spite of the fact that there might have been things that would have helped curtail the happy release of this film. I just want to say there’s so much love from all sides and we can never show enough gratitude. We thank you on behalf of the film industry for bringing life back to cinemas.”
