Mumbai, December 2 - Akshay Kumar-fronted "Sooryavasnhi" is marching alone at the box office and attracting footfalls even towards the end of the 4th week and in between the competition with Salman Khan-starrer "Antim: The Final Truth".

The Rohit Shetty-directed cop drama netted an estimated 51 lakh on its 27th day (4th Wednesday), taking its total India net collection to Rs. 190.87 crores. The Wednesday collection helps "Sooryavanshi" to cross the lifetime total of "2.0" (Hindi), which netted 190.48 crores. Akshay played an antagonist the sci-fi actioner against protagonist Rajinikanth. It becomes Akshay's 4th highest-earning film at the Indian box office and will most probably finish with that spot.



Surpassing "2.0's" Hindi total is a big achievement for the makers considering the fact that it was released amid the covid-19 pandemic with 50% theater capacity in Maharasthra and some of the other states. The movie, however, was expected to do well at the box office, and one would say, it has succeeded the expectations of trade analysts.

Produced by Reliance Entertainment, Rohit Shetty Picturez, Dharma Productions, and Cape of Good Films, "Sooryavanshi" took a solid opening of Rs. 77.08 crores over the first weekend. The positive WOM helped it further to finish the opening week at Rs. 120.66 crore and the second week on 45.57 crores.

From the third week onwards, "Sooryavanshi" faced a competetion with YRF's "Bunty Aur Babli 2". Despite the competition, it fetched another Rs. 18.68 crores in the 3rd week. With two new releases in the form of "Satyameva Jayate 2" (Nov. 25), and "Antim" (Nov. 26), "Sooryavanshi" started slowing down but still managed to hold strong with a likely over Rs. 6 crores 4th-week finish. With a new release again in the 5th week, it remains to see if "Sooryavanshi" can touch a magical Rs. 200 crore figure.
