Since its release 10 days ago, Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Jawan’ has had a phenomenal run in theatres. The film is presently approaching Rs 850 crore worldwide. On September 17, the action film grossed a stunning Rs 36 crore net in India. This is an excellent sign for the film, and if things continue at this rate, ‘Jawan’ would easily surpass Rs 1000 crore at the global box office.
Tamil director Atlee directed the film, which was distributed in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
Since September 7, ‘Jawan’ has had a spectacular run in theatres. On September 17, the film is expected to have grossed Rs 36.50 crore at the Indian box office. Putting up these kinds of numbers on the second weekend of play in theatres is a significant accomplishment these days.
In India, the 11-day total revenue presently stands at Rs 477.28 crore net. On September 17, the movie had a 45.32 percent occupancy rate. Ramesh Bala, a trade analyst, revealed on Twitter that ‘Jawan’ has now earned Rs 840 crore globally.
THE STORY OF ‘JAWAN‘
‘Jawan,’ directed by Atlee, also stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi, as well as a cameo appearance by Deepika Padukone. At its core, ‘Jawan’ is a father-son story that highlights many social and political themes through its hero, played by Shah Rukh. Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, Ridhi Dogra, Sunil Grover, and Mukesh Chhabra all appear in the film, as does Sanjay Dutt.
Manobala wrote on the social media platform X, “Jawan enters the elite ₹800 crore club at the WW Box Office. The film sold 1390,142 tickets from tracked shows alone in India on the 11th day. ||#ShahRukhKhan| #Nayanthara| #Jawan| #Atlee| #Jawan2|| Hindi shows: 13317; gross: ₹ 35.18 cr; per show collection: ₹ 26,417.”

According to Sacnilk.com, “Jawan earned ₹90 crore gross on day one of its release, ₹64 crore gross on day two, ₹93.5 crore gross on day three, ₹96.3 crore gross on day four, ₹40 crore gross on day five, ₹31.2 crore gross on day six, ₹28 crore gross on day seven, ₹25.9 crore gross on day eight, and ₹23 crore gross on day nine. Jawan minted ₹31.50 crore nett in India on day ten (second Saturday), as per early estimates”.
Jawan is a high-octane Bollywood film that follows “the emotional journey of a man determined to right the wrongs in society.” The film, which stars Shah Rukh in the dual roles of Vikram Rathore and his son Azad, examines social and political themes through its protagonist. In addition, Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Dutt make cameo appearances.
Taran Adarsh said, “Jawan is a box office dinosaur; it crushes every record that stands tall in record books. Overtakes Pathaan Weekend 2 by leaps and bounds (Pathaan: ₹ 63.50 cr; Jawan: ₹ 82.46 cr). Not merely a record-breaker but also a record-maker. (Week 2): Friday 18.10 cr, Saturday 30.10 cr, Sunday 34.26 cr. Total: ₹ 430.44 cr. Hindi. India biz,”.
Jawan came out on September 7 in conjunction with Janmashtami and has since surpassed box office records one by one. Many of those feats were achieved earlier this year by Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan. Jawan became Bollywood’s fastest 400 crore last weekend, surpassing Pathaan by one day.
SRK’s current and past films are competing, with Jawan surpassing Pathaan’s Weekend 2 box office a day after shattering the 400 crore mark established by the previous film. Sunday’s earnings of over 34 crore increased Jawan’s total to 430.44 crore nett, according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, who dubbed the picture “not merely a record breaker but also a record maker.” Jawan recently ended its second weekend in theatres, grossing over 82 crore to Pathaan’s 63 crore.
Pathaan
Pathaan has been a box office behemoth, earning a total of 1,055 crore globally and a net collection of 543.09 crore in India. The film was named an all-time blockbuster, demonstrating its enormous popularity as well as commercial success. Pathaan has begun to set new industry standards, making it the film to beat in 2023.
Gadar 2
Following closely behind is Gadar 2, another blockbuster with a worldwide gross of 675.9 crore and a net gross of 519.43 crore in India. The film has captivated audiences with its engaging plot and performances, thus becoming one of the year’s most successful pictures.
Jawan
Jawan has also earned a name for itself, with a worldwide total of 800.1 crore and a net collection of 477.3 crore in India. The picture has become an all-time blockbuster, confirming its worth in both home and foreign markets.
Jailer
Jailer, the fourth picture on the list, was likewise a monetary success, grossing $601.6 million globally and $343.72 million in India. The Rajinikanth film has demonstrated that a strong narrative combined with excellent performances may result in box office gold, becoming an all-time blockbuster.
Even Pathaan’s worldwide record of Rs 1055 crore would be broken by Jawan in its lifespan since the film has already earned Rs 860 crore globally. When Jawan reaches the Rs 1000 crore mark, Shah Rukh will become the only Indian artist to have two Rs 1000 crore grossers in just one year.
