Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki is moving at its own comfortable pace at the box office; the Christmas holiday season helped the film to accumulate some additional crores. We recently saw another biggie release having the same festive release benefit – Salman Khan‘s Tiger 3. Many pointed out how even Tiger 3’s 286 crores weren’t really enough for a film with such hype, so are we really discounting Dunki’s collections because of the clash with Salaar? Let’s take a look at day-wise data.
Tiger 3 had multiple reasons working in its favor, like being a part of a blockbuster franchise, high brand value, festive release, etc. On the other hand, even Dunki had things on its side, like being directed by India’s one of the most celebrated directors, Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback after two back-to-back 1000 crore films, also a holiday release.
Both the films had their own advantages, but Shah’s movie had one major disadvantage: being releasing against Prabhas‘ Salaar. Any clash is a bad clash because it ultimately divides the number of screens, giving viewers two different options for watching a film. Before deep-diving into facts, let’s take a look at the day-wise data of both movies.
