It has been a fantastic year for Shah Rukh Khan — he scripted the someback of dreams with Pathaan, cemented his golden run with Jawaan and is in the middle of the box office run of his third release of the year, Dunki. The Rajkumar Hirani drama has failed to follow heights hit by the previous two SRK-starrers — they earned Rs 1000 crore each at the global box office — it is walking leisurely where they sprinted.
Dunki box office collection day 4 stands at an estimated Rs 100 crore domestically, while it is eyeing Rs 200 crore club with its global gross. After three days of its release, the film has made Rs 157.22 crore globally and with its Sunday’s box office collection, will inch closer to Rs 200 crore mark.
After earning Rs 29.2 crore in the domestic market on its debut day that was Thursday, the film saw a drop on Friday and earned Rs 20.50 crore as Prabhas-starrer Salaar released. On Saturday, the film saw a 30 per cent growth and earned Rs 26 crore, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. Its Sunday collection is likely to be under Rs 30 crore as it saw 27.01% occupancy in morning shows, which increased to Rs 52.63% in afternoon and 66.06% in the evening shows.
However, the film is unlikely to land up with the box office numbers expected from a Shah Rukh Khan film. It will also not be able to match Salaar — Prabhas-starrer directed by Prashanth Neel — in terms of box office earnings.
However, the film is likely to get further fillip with the Christmas holiday on Monday. The film has a long window at the box office as no big film is expected in the next week also. Made at a reported budget of Rs 85 crore, the Shah Rukh Khan starrer is on a sure footing in terms of its earnings.
Dunki also stars Taapsee Pannu, Boman Irani and Vicky Kaushal in a special appearance.
