Sultan is a juggernaut which refuses to stop. The Salman Khan, Anushka Sharma film has earned a gross of Rs 320 crore at the box office and is still going strong.
The net profit of Sultan in India is Rs 236.59 crore at BO and the international figures for the film are yet to come in. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted that the film is already Salman’s second biggest hit ever, having left Kick behind. The big question, however, is if it can breach the Rs 300-crore mark in net domestic business. (Salman Khan’s Sultan day 9 box office collections steady, movie beats Kick’s lifetime collections)
Salman’s biggest hit till date is last year’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan which is a member of the Rs 300-crore club. Aamir Khan holds the record of the biggest hit ever with PK. (Salman Khan’s Sultan’s day 8 box office collection: Can it be the biggest hit ever?)
Adarsh tweeted that the coming weekend and the ensuing week will test Sultan’s real strength: “While #Sultan remained STRONG on weekdays, after a JUBILANT 5-day weekend, its biz in Weekend 2 will be an indicator of its future trends… #Sultan concludes its extended Week 1 [9 days] on a HISTORIC note… Biz from Wed to Sun was SPLENDID, with each day crossing ₹ 30 cr.”

This will reportedly include Kabir Khan’s next film Tubelight and Raj Kumar Santoshi’s as-yet-untitled project.
