Salman Khan starrer Dabangg roared at the box office as it opened to a first day net collection of a whopping Rs 14.40 crore - the highest till date at the box office.
The movie directed by Abhinav Kashyap starring Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha has set a new benchmark. As per official sources, the film has now created a record for earning Rs 48 crore, which is a whopping Rs 6 crore more than 3 Idiots, that had collected Rs 41 crore in the opening weekend.
Trade analyst and critic Taran Adarsh said, "Salman fans, rejoice! You walk into Dabangg with 100 per cent expectations and you exit with 200 per cent ratification. Entertainment guaranteed. This film will create a pandemonium of sorts, a mass hysteria, crushing old records and setting new benchmarks at the box-office."
The festive season and inimitable star power of the lead actor had audiences queuing outside cinema halls all over the country. The movie grossed Rs 15.75 crore on the second day at the box office.
Confirms trade analyst Amod Mehra, "Yes, Dabangg has surpassed the opening collections of 3 Idiots."
While the movie opened to almost 97 per cent occupancy at single screen theatres, it ran into packed houses in several multiplexes across the country, proving yet again that Salman Khan is the darling of the masses.
Dabangg has also surpassed Salman's previous film records in the Gulf, US, UK (£332,673), North America ( $628,317), and with 14 prints, it grossed $80,000 in Australia on Friday alone making Dabangg Salman's biggest hit overseas.
"Salman has bounced back with renewed vigour. He has proved, with Dabangg, that he has so much to offer to his fans and viewers of Hindi cinema. His star power is the biggest USP of Dabangg. It's the prime reason why Dabangg is shattering previous records and setting new records and benchmarks. He was the darling of the masses and continues to remain the unstoppable force with Dabangg," added Taran Adarsh.
