Pre-pandemic, the last blockbuster was Ajay Devgn starrer Tanhaji – The Unsung Warrior. The biggie had netted 280 crores and had exceeded expectations to emerge as a really huge success. In fact, no film could come even close to surpassing it for more than two years till the Hindi version of Yash starrer KGF: Chapter 2 arrived and scored 434.70 crores.
Post that, there was a lull again, and Bollywood required the might of Shah Rukh Khan and Sunny Deol to strike thrice with Pathaan, Jawan, and Gadar 2 to surpass Tanhaji – The Unsung Warrior.
In a year that’s seeing huge records being scored, now Salman Khan starrer Tiger 3 is set to go one up over Om Raut-directed period historical drama by edging past its lifetime score. On Wednesday, the film scored 2 crores more and, in the process, reached 279.43 crores. Today, all it requires is a few more lakhs to be added to its score, and that will ensure that Tanhaji -The Unsung Warrior’s lifetime score record is broken.
