Salaar has stormed the Indian box office, and this fantastic run will continue till at least the Christmas holiday. After an earth-shattering start, the film had a superb hold on Saturday, and now, the advance booking report for day 3 suggests another rocking collection day coming in. Let’s find out how better the Sunday pre-sales have turned out to be!
The crazy fan following of Prabhas in the Telugu-speaking states and the fact that he and director Prashanth Neel are coming together took the film to the next level in the advance booking. Before the first show started, the biggie had amassed a whopping 49 crores gross, thus marking the highest pre-sales for an Indian film in 2023.
On the following day, i.e., day 2, Salaar did show a noticeable drop, but that’s a common thing to happen for a Telugu film. For Saturday, the film had raked in 20 crores gross through pre-sales.

Day 3 advance booking status of Salaar
Compared to yesterday, Salaar has shown growth of over 7% by selling tickets worth 21.50 crores gross across the nation (excluding blocked seats). It includes a ticket count of 9.62+ lakh. The pre-sales are majorly driven by the Telugu version, followed by the Hindi dubbed version.
With such advance booking, Salaar will be aiming to score a day of over 60 crores. If that happens, it’ll be a superb hold again, and then there’s a holiday tomorrow.
