It was 33 years ago that Ajay Devgn made his debut on the silver screen, standing on two bikes, and the actor has never looked back. He made a roaring debut with Phool Aur Kaante, a film that initially starred Akshay Kumar, but the Khiladi was replaced overnight. Devgn, on the other hand, tasted phenomenal success with the film that collected crores at the box office. His recent offering, Shaitaan, needs to earn at least 732 crore to match Ajay’s first box office success.
Phool Aur Kaante was an action film that put Ajay right there on the pedestal, along with other superstars. The film also starred Madhoo and was the first superhit of Ajay’s career. The box office statistics and figures of this film are surprising as well as impressive.
Ajay Devgn’s Day 1 At The Box Office – Phool Aur Kaante’s Opening Day
Phool Aur Kaante collected 0.10 crore at the box office on the first day. While Ajay stepped on the silver screen singing Maine Pyaar Tumhi Se Kiya Hai, his action image eventually paid off, and the film collected 10 lakh on the opening day. Ajay’s first day at the box office did exceedingly well.
Helmed by Vikas Bahl, the horror flick starring R Madhavan and Jyothika is expected to open in the range of 10 – 12 crore. So, the Maidaan superstar will register a whopping 11,99,900% higher earnings than his opening day. However, he still has an impossible target to break.
The film was Ajay Devgn’s first superhit in his career, and it collected 6.10 crore at the box office. Almost 61 times than its opening day. If Shaitaan opens at 12crore, it needs to earn an impossible 732 crore to match Phool Aur Kaante‘s success.
Phool Aur Kaante Profit At The Box Office
Phool Aur Kaante was made on a budget of around 2.50 crore, and it yielded a profit of around 144%, another big target for the horror flick that is currently making the right kind of noises.
Phool Aur Kaante – 4th Highest Grosser Of The Year
Ajay Devgn’s debut film was the fourth highest-grossing film of that year after Saajan, Saudagar, and Hum. Will Shaitaan enter the list of the top 10 highest-grossing films of 2024? It’s too early to predict!
