Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Pathaan has continued to create new box office records as it became the fastest film to enter Rs. 300 crore club within four days. This was after Pathaan day 4 box office collection that has made more than Rs. 55 crore across India. The film made Rs. 57 crore on the opening day in India, Rs. 70.50 crore on the second day, Rs. 39.25 crore on the third day, and now Rs. 55.75 crore on Saturday. The slight dip on the third day was largely due to the fact that this was the first working day after 26 January, a national holiday in India.
Outlining Pathaan day 4 box office collection, Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote on Twitter, “PATHAAN’: ₹ 313 CR WORLDWIDE *GROSS* IN 3 DAYS… #Pathaan is the FASTEST #Hindi film to breach ₹ 300 cr mark [GROSS] in *3 days*… WORLDWIDE [#India + #Overseas] *Gross* BOC… *3 days*…

Pathaan has already smashed the box office records of KGF 2 and Bahubali 2 in terms of its collection for the first three days of its release.
Pathaan director Siddharth Anand spoke about creating box office history and said that one cannot plan it. He said in a statement, “Scripting history. Everyone wants it, but one can’t plan it. It just happens. And when it does, it’s actually a very humbling experience. I’m feeling incredibly overwhelmed right now and inspired to get back on the film set and try and create something really special for audiences again. That’s my state of mind,” Anand said in a statement.
He added, “For me, yes numbers do matter. It is a validation of all the hard work but filmmaking is also a team game. So, I share this incredible moment with the entire cast and crew of Pathaan.”
