Pathan Box Office Day 10: At exactly the time when film experts were beginning to acknowledge the dominance of South Indian films over the Hindi entertainment industry and market, Shahrukh Khan‘Pathan’ is staking its claim on the box office throne. This is the Bollywood star’s first film in four years. After breaking some earlier box office records of South biggies like KGF: Chapter 2 and Baahubali: The Conclusion, the Hindi film will look to challenge its lifetime business in India and across the globe. At this pace, it looks like it will be no big deal for Pathan, directed by Siddharth Anand.

Due to the absence of holiday period, a slight decline is being seen in the collections of Pathan. On Friday, it collected Rs 13 crore, taking the ten-day total for the Hindi version in India to Rs 364 crore. On Saturday and Sunday, which will be Pathan’s second weekend at the box office, the numbers are expected to go up. The film is not only doing well in mega centers and single screen cinema halls but is also doing exceptionally well in national multiplex chains despite high ticket prices.
