Mumbai, February 3 - Yash Raj Films' biggest bet has turned out to be the biggest blockbuster as Shah Rukh Khan-fronted "Pathaan" has concluded the extended opening week at the box office on a historic note.

Siddharth Anand's directorial broke all the opening week records for a Bollywood movie and has set new benchmarks for the upcoming films to climb. "Pathaan", after becoming the biggest Bollywood opener of all time with 57 crores net, concludes a 9-day week with 364.15 crores net, including 351 crores in Hindi alone.



Also starring John Abraham, and Deepika Padukone, "Pathaan" has beaten "KGF: Chapter 2" (268.63 crores) to score the biggest ever first week for a Hindi film. As far as the like-for-like record, "Pathaan" is still miles ahead of "KGF 2" which minted 280.18 crores net in the first 9 days.

For an outright Bollywood movie, Salman Khan's "Sultan" was previously the biggest opening week grosser with 229.16 crores net in its 9-day week. Interestingly, "Pathaan" has already crossed the lifetime collection of "Sultan" (300.12 crores) in just 6 days.

At the overseas box office, "Pathaan" has grossed approx. 260 crores in 9 days, for a total worldwide cume of approx. 697 crores in as many days. It has topped 700 crores gross as I type this and becomes the 5th Bollywood and 9th Indian film to achieve the feat. By the end of the second weekend, "Pathaan" will become the 4th biggest Bollywood and 7th biggest Indian grosser of all time.

If excluding China, "Pathaan" is already the second Biggest Bollywood grosser of all-time after "Dangal" and is likely to become the biggest by the end of the second weekend.
