The fourth weekend of the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Jawan has seen the movie go into overdrive, setting a weekend box office record. After earning Rs 4.75 crore on the fourth Friday, Jawan increased to Rs 8.25 crore on the fourth Saturday, and according to early estimates, somewhere between Rs 8.50 crore on the fourth Sunday. By earning almost Rs 21.50 crore on its fourth weekend, the movie had the highest fourth-weekend gross ever. On the real value front, the movie has witnessed a sizable increase in admissions and numbers over the previous day despite the fact that there was no BOGO deal on Sunday and there was one on Saturday.
Shah Rukh Khan leads the fourth weekend box office with Jawan, followed by URI, Bahubali 2, and Gadar 2
In the fourth weekend, Jawan sets a new record.
With this, Jawan’s 25-day total has reached the record-breaking amount of Rs 533.50 crore, and the SRK-led movie is on track to reach Rs 550 crore by the end of this week. Jawan outperformed films like URI: The Surgical Strike (Rs 18.25 crore), Bahubali (Rs 18.25 crore), Gadar 2 (Rs 17.50 crore), and KGF 2 (Rs 14.50 crore) in terms of fourth-weekend box office receipts. The Atlee-directed film will be on track to set a new week four record as well. In fact, on Monday it will surpass URI (Rs 29.30 crore), the current week four record holder, and begin a path to reach new heights for releases in the future.
The fact that Jawan is trending shows that audiences, whether they are watching it on single screens or multiplexes, agree that it is a hit. Although a lot would rely on how it holds up from Tuesday, the action-packed movie is not looking to stop anytime soon and has serious possibilities of cracking the Rs 600 crore milestone in the long run. In order for Jawan to reach the Rs 600 crore mark, it basically needs to set all-time records in every week that follows, and there won’t be much competition for the movie till Dussehra releases. On Friday, the movie Mission Raniganj will be released, but it will be targeting entirely different people.
Jawan is an all-time blockbuster and all-time grosser, and the trip has now reached a point where it may be difficult for films to be released in the next year.
