Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan sells 3.30 crore tickets across India
Through its run over the last 1 month, Pathaan has almost every existing record in its name and all the collections aside, one record that deserves a special mention is the fact that the film has become one of those rare films in the last 13 years to have sold over 3 crore tickets at the box office in India. The Siddharth Anand directorial is looking to end its run in Hindi with footfalls of 3.15 crore, and the Tamil-Telugu dubbed versions are expected to have to sold another 15 lakh tickets. The all India closing footfall of Pathaan will be in the vicinity of 3.30 crore, which is massive to say the least in the post pandemic world.
3 crore footfall films of Bollywood from 2000 (Hindi Only)
Kaho Na Pyaar Hai (2000)
Gadar (2001)
Kabhie Khushi Kabhi Gham (2001)
3 Idiots (2009)
PK (2014)
Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015)
Sultan (2016)
Dangal (2016)
Tiger Zinda Hai (2017)
Pathaan (2023)
It is to be noted that the last film to have scored a 3-crore footfall at the box office was Tiger Zinda Hai in 2017, and it has taken over 5 years for an original Hindi film to attain this feat. What makes the footfall score of Pathaan even more special is the fact that these numbers have been achieved in the post pandemic world, where a large section of cinema going audience has decided to wait for OTT premieres. The footfalls have come in the non-festive season too, which is another notable feat for this epic.
In terms of global footfalls, Pathaan is looking to close its international footfalls in the 50 lakh range, taking worldwide footfall for this spy actioner to 3.80 crore. In India, Pathaan is looking at a lifetime figure of Rs 513 crore plus (Hindi) and another Rs 20 crore from the dubbed version, amounting to a total of Rs 533 crore. On the worldwide front, Pathaan is already in the north of Rs 1000 crore, and the worldwide closing will be highest for a Hindi film (in single language) with a total of Rs 1025 crore.
The low ticket price policy adopted by YRF in the last 2 weeks has helped the film to sustain well and also played a key role in pushing it towards the 3 crore footfall mark. It was a masterstroke from the studio, as the lowered pricing came into picture only after it exhausted it initial run to fuel the collections to a much larger total to have a landmark record under its name by the end of run. Pathaan has raised the benchmarks at the box office for feature films in terms of numbers and also footfalls - more so in the post pandemic, where most have failed to get the crowds on board. All eyes on the upcoming biggies now.
