‘Dunki’ Earns Rs 7.4 Crore In Advance Booking, Exceeds ‘Salaar’ In Opening Day Collection

Prabhas' ‘Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire’ is releasing on December 22, a day after Shah Rukh Khan's ‘Dunki’ on December 21.

Shah Rukh Khan's ‘Dunki’ is one of the most-awaited films of the year, and so is Prabhas' dark dystopian drama ‘Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire’. The audience is certainly looking forward to their box office clash, and the advance booking status of both films remains strong.

While ‘Dunki’ has minted Rs 7.36 crore opening day collection, ‘Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire’ collected Rs 6 crore for all languages, as per reports on Sacnilk.com. ‘Dunki’ is hitting the cinema halls on December 21 and will be followed by ‘Salaar’ on December 22. 

According to the report, 2,51,146 tickets have been sold for 9,658 shows across India for ‘Dunki’, which would garner 7.36 crore for the film since it is only released in one language, Hindi. On the other hand, ‘Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire’ stands at a total of Rs 5.99 crore for the opening day considering that 2,46,772 tickets have been sold for 4,338 shows across India. It includes Rs 1.11 crore from 35,946 tickets for Hindi shows and Rs 3.5 crore from 1,29,010 tickets for Telugu shows. 

‘Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire’ is releasing in Kannada, Tamil and Malayalam as well. Hence, the advance booking for these languages is slowly gaining momentum. The tickets worth Rs 12 lakh for Tamil shows, Rs 9.9 lakh for Kannada and Rs 98 lakh for Malayalam shows have already been sold.

Meanwhile, on Monday, a new trailer for ‘Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire’ was unveiled. Sharing the same, Prabhas wrote, "Enter the violent world of Khansaar." Helmed by Prashant Neel of ‘KGF’ fame, the film also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran, Shruti Haasan, and Jagapathi Babu. It is produced by Vijay Kiragandur under Hombale Films.

SRK unveiled a new song titled ‘Banda’ from Dunki on Monday. Sung by Diljit Dosanjh, it was unveiled in a special video titled ‘Dunki Diaries’ as Shah Rukh Khan and Taapsee Pannu discuss the film. The film is directed by Rajkumar Hirani and produced under the banner of Red Chillies Entertainment and Jio Studios. It stars Shah Rukh Khan along with Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal (in special appearance), and Boman Irani.
