Salman Khan’s latest release, Tiger 3, opened with a blast at the box office. The film witnessed a remarkable surge in revenue on its second day of release, even though it was a Monday. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film raked in an impressive $6 million (approx.) on its second day. The domestic net total crossed over $12 million in just two days. The worldwide gross for Tiger 3 is now at $11 million (approx.).
Directed by Maneesh Sharma, Tiger 3 debuted with a strong start on Diwali. It earned $5 million (approx.) on its opening day, setting a new record for Salman Khan. Tiger 3 is also expected to surpass Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan. The film already has earned $12 million in revenue. Furthermore, the film is anticipated to maintain its strong performance throughout the first week. Additionally, the performance is expected to be bolstered by the upcoming Bhai Dooj holiday on Wednesday.
Salman Khan’s Tiger 3 collection, occupancy and other details
On the global front, the film made an astonishing $11 million (approx.) on day 1. Tiger 3 is expected to cross the $24 million mark soon. Sacnilk reported a 48% occupancy for the Hindi language version on day 2. Major contributions came from the Mumbai and Delhi-NCR regions. However, the film had a more subdued performance in the Tamil and Telugu markets with less than 30% occupancy on the second day, not matching the level of interest Pathaan generated in the South.
Salman Khan, who has seen a series of underperformers at the box office in recent times, last tasted outright success with Tiger Zinda Hai in 2017. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, the film grossed a staggering $67 million globally. Tiger 3’s success now marks a significant comeback for Salman Khan in the realm of box office dominance.
