Salaar crosses $6 million mark in North America | Hindi Movie News

Prabhas and Prashanth Neel’s Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire has not only set the Indian Box Office on fire but also is setting the stage for big numbers in North America. The film has one of the biggest openings in North America when it minted about $2.5 million just from its premiere and not on its fourth day, the film has already crossed the $ 6 million mark , as its total collection currently stands at $ 6.3 million.The number is expected to go up by the end of the day. Though the box office collection of the film is rising, the film is losing its screens by the hour. The film had nearly 800 screens for its premiere which has now been reduced to just 490 locations now.

At the pre-booking Salaar was leading the charge when compared to Rajkumar Hirani and Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki, but post its release the film has managed to gain huge numbers and has currently earned about $4.4 million within 5 days of its release.Dunki has also to face the issue of reduced screens but Salaar’s loss seems to be Dunki’s gain, as on Christmas day Dunki had 33 more locations than Salaar.
Both the films are carrying tremendous expectations as one of Shah Rukh Khan’s third film of the year after super successful Jawan and Pathaan. While Salaar is Prashanth Neel’s first film post the success of KGF franchise with Yash.
