‘Fighter,’ starring Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone, has achieved a remarkable feat at the box office, rising to the top of the list of highest-earning Indian films globally. With an astounding Rs 356 crore in box office receipts, it has become the movie to beat globally.
‘Fighter’ made a remarkable Rs 207 crore nett during its 26-day run at the domestic box office. The movie added an early estimated Rs 70 lakh on its twenty-seventh day, continuing its stellar run. Though it started out slowly and was overshadowed by the previous Republic Day’s big hit, “Pathaan,” “Fighter” picked up steam over time. Though they had bigger expectations at first, critics and trade analysts praised the picture for its steady success, especially praising its about Rs 4.5 crore fourth-weekend revenues. Despite encountering difficulties in theaters, the movie was well-received in multiplexes.
At the Indian box office, “Fighter” broke through the Rs 200 crore barrier on its 24th day of release. ‘Fighter’ surpassed its peers on a global scale, solidifying its position as the standard for Indian cinema in 2024.
After a strong opening weekend at the box office on January 25, the Deepika Padukone and Hrithik Roshan film Fighter has struggled to stay afloat. However, following a few unsettling days, the aerial action drama made Rs 10 crore on its second Saturday, over eighty percent more what it had made on the day before (Rs 5.75 crore).
The film, which earned a commendable Rs 24 crore, really took off on the second day, which happened to be Republic Day. The remarkable positive publicity generated by the movie’s aerial action scenes drove up its box office receipts by almost 70%, proving the power of good word-of-mouth in the motion picture business.
