For the unversed, Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone and Anil Kapoor-starrer, 'Fighter' minted Rs 24.60 crore on the opening day of its release while Ajay Devgn, R Madhavan and Jyotika-starrer 'Shaitaan' made Rs 15.21 crore on Day 1.
'Crew' has now overtaken Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon’s 'Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya', which had made Rs 7.02 crore on the opening day of its release.
For the unversed, 'Crew' is facing very tough competition from the Hollywood film 'Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire'. The movie which also released on Friday, collected Rs 14 crore on the opening day of its release, as per Sacnilk.
Prithviraj Sukumaran's new Malayalam film 'Aadujeevitham - The Goat Life' which was released in cinemas on Thursday, made Rs 6.50 crore on the second day of its release. As per Sacnilk, the two-day total now stands at Rs 14.10 crore.
Returning to 'Crew', the new Hindi film is crucial for Kareena Kapoor as her last theatrical release 'Laal Singh Chaddha' bombed at the box office. The movie which opened with Rs 11 crore, was able to mint just Rs 60 crore in its theatrical run.
Apart from Kareena, Kriti, and Tabu, the new Hindi film also stars Diljit Dosanjh and Kapil Sharma.
Directed by Rajesh Krishnan, the new Hindi movie is set against the backdrop of the airline industry. The new Hindi movie is co-produced by Ektaa Kapoor and Rhea Kapoor, who are reuniting after the 2023 Bollywood movie ‘Thank You For Coming’.
‘Crew’ also marks the third collaboration between Kareena Kapoor Khan and Diljit Dosanjh after ‘Udta Punjab’ and ‘Good Newwz’.
