An adaptation of Sufi poem Padmavat penned by poet Malik Muhammad Jayasi, Padmaavat is the seventh film to enter the 300 crore club. Deepika, at the time of the release, predicted the film will have \u201cearth-shattering box office performance\u201d and her prediction has come out to be correct. The protests by several fringe groups against the portrayal of Rani Padmini clearly failed to derail the film.<\/p>\n
Earlier it was the two Khans, Aamir and Salman who dominated the coveted club with their films PK, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Sultan, Dangal and Tiger Zinda Hai in it. Prabhas and Rana Daggubati starrer Baahubali: The Conclusion also made it to the club and also became the only film to enter the Rs 500 crore club. Apart from this, the film broke several other records. It registered the highest opening weekend for a Hindi film overseas (excluding China). The film has collected $12 million (Rs 76.24 crore) approx. in the first weekend.<\/p>\n
The leading lady of Padmaavat, Deepika became the undisputed queen of box office as Padmaavat became her seventh Rs 100 crore film after Happy New Year, Bajirao Mastani, Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela, Race 2, Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani and Chennai Express. Shahid who essayed the role of Maharawal Ratan Singh in the movie finally got an entry into the Rs 100 crore club with Padmaavat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
