Shah Rukh Khan led Jawan, directed by Atlee Kumar and co-starring Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Deepika Padukone, Sanjay Dutt and others is less than a day away from release. The film is registering probably the best advance bookings for a Hindi film of all time and by the day of the release, it may have netted over Rs 50 crores in just presales for the opening weekend. The top 3 national chains of India are showing terrific gains over the last few hours. As at 2pm IST a day prior to release, the film has sold around 4.16 lakh tickets in PVR, Inox and Cinepolis, only for the opening day. With this, Jawan has crossed the total number of tickets that War sold in the top 3 chains and by the end of the day, it is likely to challenge KGF 2 and also Pathaan.
