Dangal will have to break Sultan’s records to become the biggest blockbuster of 2016 :- Movie Sultan of Salman Khan made unimaginable money. Rs. 300 crore on the board. It is also the most successful sports film ever. But there is one more film on the same genre that’s getting ready to hit the box office – Aamir Khan’s Dangal.
A real-life story of a wrestler and his struggle to make his daughters wrestling champs will release this Christmas. The trailer of the movie has made us really interested in the film. We have 10 records that Aamir’s Dangal needs to break if it wants to go beyond the film Sultan.
Biggest opening day of 2016:
The movie Sultan made the biggest opening day of 2016 of Rs 36.54 crore. Neither Akshay Kumar nor Shah Rukh Khan could manage a whopping so much earning on the opening day. Dangal surely has to earn more than that to become the highest opening day grosser of this year.
Biggest opening weekend of 2016:
Highest opening day occupancy of 2016:
Movie Sultan enjoyed 80-90 percent occupancy at the theatres which continued throughout the day. Dangal needs a similar or better margin than that.
Highest opening day for a sports film:
It became the highest earning sports film ever. Dangal will have a mammoth task of toppling that and if it does, 2016 will be a triumph of a genre we had forgotten till recently – Sports!
Highest advance booking
Sultan had made more than Rs. 18 crore from its advance bookings which was made available on July 3. Dangal will surely have the same effect we feel because Aamir enjoys the patronage of both the masses and classes.
Highest day 2 collection ever
Sultan now holds the record of having the highest day 2 collection with Rs 37.32 crore. Dangal can surely make it happen.
