The year 2017 has been hard on the film trade. Big films bombed, star vehicles came cropper and it was left to middle-of-the-road cinema to bring in the money. However, in a year where Baahubali 2 went galloping over the Rs 1000 crore mark and more, others could barely make their way to the Rs 200 crore club.<\/p>\n
In this scenario comes Salman Khan\u2019s Christmas release Tiger Zinda Hai. The film has not only broken records of 2017, it has also trampled some of Khan\u2019s previous ones. The film, according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, has been sensational. \u201c#TigerZindaHai is SENSATIONAL on Day 3… East-West-North-South, the biz witnesses REMARKABLE growth… Metros and beyond metros, plexes and single screens – it\u2019s creating HAVOC… Fri 34.10 cr, Sat 35.30 cr, Sun 45.53 cr. Total: \u20b9 114.93 cr. India biz. #TZH,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n
It also broke numerous records, set by Khan himself, \u201cSalman versus Salman – first 3 days…
\n#BajrangiBhaijaan \u20b9 102.60 cr [Fri-Sun] #Sultan \u20b9 105.53 cr [released on Wed; Wed-Fri] #Tubelight \u20b9 64.77 cr [Fri-Sun] #TigerZindaHai \u20b9 114.93 cr [Fri-Sun] #TZH India biz.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tiger Zinda Hai is also the second film of Khan to land in Rs 300 crore club. \u201c#TigerZindaHai #TZH is Salman Khan\u2019s 12th film to cross \u20b9 100 cr mark… The HIGHEST by any actor\u2026Highest grosser: #BajrangiBhaijaan [\u20b9 320.34 cr] Two films in \u20b9 300 cr Club: #BajrangiBhaijaan [\u20b9 320.34 cr] and #Sultan [\u20b9 300.45 cr] India biz,\u201d Adarsh tweeted.<\/p>\n
The film also starring Katrina Kaif made over Rs 45 crore on Sunday, a single-day record for a Hindi film. The weekend total of Rs 114.93 crore is also one of the biggest debuts ever seen for a Hindi film. Before this, Khan\u2019s Sultan earned Rs 105 crore in three days. The 2016 film, which released on Eid and was also directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, went on to earn Rs 180 crore at the box office in the five-day weekend.<\/p>\n
Earlier, trade analyst Taran Adarsh had tweeted, \u201c#TigerZindaHai emerges BOXOFFICE CHAMPION… Shows TERRIFIC trending on Day 2\u2026 All set to cross \u20b9 100 cr today [Day 3]\u2026 Fri 34.10 cr [updated], Sat 35.30 cr.

Not only the domestic market, Tiger Zinda Hai is doing well in international market as well. Quoting rentrak numbers, Adarsh tweeted, \u201c#TigerZindaHai is SUPER-STRONG in North America [USA + Canada]\u2026 USA: Fri $ 443,868 Sat $ 522,292 Total: $ 966,160 CANADA: Fri $ 95,852 Sat $ 123,900 Total: $ 219,752 NORTH AMERICA total: $ 1,185,912 [\u20b9 7.59 cr]<\/p>\n
While its box office figures are impressive, Tiger Zinda Hai is chasing tough targets. Made at an approximate budget of Rs 150 crore, the film must earn Rs 300 crore to post a profit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
