'Salaar: Ceasefire' and 'Dunki' Advance Booking Collection Cross 10 Crore Each For The Opening Day In India

Mumbai, December 19 - The ticketing website Book My Show's server crashed after the advance booking of superstar Prabhas-fronted Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire opened in the Telugu states as thousands of fans jumped to the website to book their tickets.

The pre-sales, which were moving on at a decent pace, witnessed a sudden jump and crossed the 10 crores gross mark in no time. The action drama film directed by Prashanth Neel is now selling tickets at jet speed in advance which indicates a massive opening in Telugu states.



As of 11 PM on December 19, Salaar sold over 400K tickets worth 10+ crores gross in all languages for the opening day in India. The Telugu version is leading with a 6+ crores gross collection, and more importantly, the shows are getting sold as soon as they open in Telugu states.

While "Salaar" has started to gain the deciding momentum, superstar Shah Rukh Khan's social comedy-drama Dunki is also putting up a good show in the pre-sales despite being a mid-week release and not being a mass-friendly front-loaded blockbuster.

The Rajkumar Hirani's directorial has also crossed the 10 crore gross mark from over 340K tickets sold in advance for the opening day. The movie has one more day left for the release and advances are expected to finish around the 20 crore mark which is good pre-sales considering the genre and mid-week release.

"Dunki" will be hitting worldwide theaters on December 21st in just Hindi language while "Salaar" will have a multi-language release on December 22nd.
