Mumbai: Ajay Devgn-starrer ‘Singham Again’ emerged a winner in the box-office clash with Kartik Aaryan’s ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ by minting Rs 65 crore worldwide on the opening day.
It is the second highest opening of the year after Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao starrer ‘Stree 2’, as reported by Hindustan Times.
Talking about the terrific opening of Rohit Shetty’s ‘Singham Again’, Reliance Industries Limited Media and Content Business president Jyoti Deshpande said, “We promised audiences a mass entertainer perfect for Diwali celebration with entire family and that’s exactly what we delivered. Singham Again is a star-studded spectacle tailormade for a big screen theatre experience and fans of the franchise have made it the No. 1 choice this festive weekend,” said Deshpande.
“The universally spectacular performance of our film across multiplexes and extraordinary results in single screens and mass centres has vindicated the showcasing of 60% screens that we secured for our film. We are delighted to be the dominant film contributing to the cumulative highest ever single day of box office in the history of Indian cinema across languages estimated at INR 124 crores, a true testament to our consistent efforts to not only grow our market leadership but also to grow the overall size of the market,” she added.
‘Singham Again’ is screening across 2,000 screens internationally, including 197 screens in Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji, 760 screens in a North American debut, and 224 in the UK and Ireland.
Devgn apart, the cop universe movie stars Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor and Jackie Shroff in key roles. The special cameo by Salman Khan reportedly got the maximum whistles in theatres.
Horror-comedy ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ trailed ‘Singham Again’ by minting Rs 55 crore on the first day worldwide, according to Sacnilk.
‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ stars Kartik, Tripti Dimrii, Madhuri Dixit and Vidya Balan in lead roles.
