Mumbai, November 19 - Akshay Kumar-fronted "Sooryavanshi" is still in the race to become Bollywood's first Rs. 200 crore net collection film during the covid-19 pandemic. After finishing the first week on high, the cop-drama maintained the stronghold in the second week as well with a drop of 62% (on par with the pre-covid level) for Rs. 45.57 crores.

Directed by hit master Rohit Shetty, "Sooryavanshi" currently stands at Rs. 166.23 crores net and Rs. 196.15 crore gross in India. Overseas, it has grossed Rs. 53 crores so far, for its total worldwide gross of Rs. 249.15 crores. It will cross Rs. 250 crore gross on its third Friday at the worldwide box office.



While "Sooryavanshi" has paved the way for upcoming Bollywood biggies, Rs. 200 crore India net will be a landmark foot if it is able to achieve. Yash Raj Films' "Bunty Aur Babli 2", which opens today (Nov. 19), received negative reviews from critics and audiences, which will directly benefit "Sooryavanshi" to keep the momentum going for one more week until "Satyameva Jayate 2" and "Antim - The Final Truth" arrive on Thursday (Nov. 25) and Friday (Nov. 26), respectivly.

"Sooryavanshi" is Akshay Kumar's 5th highest-grossing film at the India box office. If it enters Rs. 200 crore club, then it will cross "2.0" (190.48 cr.), and possibly "Mission Mangal" (203.08 cr.) to finish in the top 3 highest-grossing films. For Katrina Kaif, who plays the female lead, "Sooryavanshi" is the 6th best-grossing film, and will definitely enter the top 5 by crossing "Bang Bang" (174.51 cr.), by the end of this week.

Produced by Reliance Entertainment, Rohit Shetty Picturez, Dharma Productions, and Cape of Good Films, "Sooryavanshi" is the 4th film in Shetty's cop universe. It also stars Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh in the extended cameos as Singham and Simmba, respectively.
