Ever since the beginning of the decade, Salman Khan has been unstoppable at the box office. He’s worked with directors and actresses on debut, done low-budget films that had B-grade production-standards like Jai Ho and featured in films that were directed by his two brothers.
He has also worked with top directors like Kabir Khan and Sooraj Barjatya, but the one common thing with all his films is the opening. Every single film of Salman Khan this decade, has opened well – 6 out of his 11 films opened to bumper / record-breaking opening.
He is one among only two / three actors in the industry, who have never really disappointed on the morning of release.
Check out the opening morning response to Salman Khan films since 2010:
- Veer – Good
- Dabangg – Bumper
- Ready – Excellent
- Bodyguard – Bumper
- Ek Tha Tiger – Bumper
- Dabangg 2 – Excellent
- Jai Ho – Good
- Kick – Bumper
- Bajrangi Bhaijaan – Excellent
- Prem Ratan Dhan Payo – Bumper
- Sultan – Bumper

IMDB 5.6
says all
Yes , he is capable of attracting large number of audiences on the opening day. No body is denying that fact.
But million dollar question is, when will he cross the opening day collections of HNY (which he is chasing since last two years) ?
Will Sultana (which released on a non-holiday with record number of screens and increased price) end that dearth or that chase will still continue?
He has worked with big directors Suraj Barjatya & Kabir Khan!? Lol but u forgot to say that both made their mark with Salman only… SB with MPK and KK with ETT.
o my god bumper abhi se
evening night show bache hai tab bhi matlab salman is bigger star than srk in crowd pulling on opening day
What is the difference between bumper and excellent?

Truth comes out in one or the other way. From the very beginning this was my belief that Flop Ho was a B-grade movie (later Daisy Shah worked in another B-grade movie Hate Story 3 which eventually proves Daisy is a B-grade movie heroine launched by non-actor). And today even indicine confirmed that.
Actually, the personality of non-actor Khan is only suitable for Bhojpuri, B-grade and south remakes. He is not a classy material like SRK, Amir, Hrithik, Ajay, Akki and many others.
Bumber opening Nothing new for a salman movie..;)
@Fasal kerala…it seems srk paid u to criticize on every article of salman..
Rs 48 Crore for first day according to the early estimate of Sultan Movie collection … One of my distributor friend told me just now ,,
75%-80% people loved this film. After Bajrangi Bhaijaan best film of Salman Khan in Eid .. I think it will easily collect 150 crore in five days. !!
@fasal try ur best but u gna get disappointed big. . .u r not SRk fan u r just a salman hater
He is the Really Sultan of india Masha Allah Sultan “Haters gonna Hate like @xzone Shameless shame on you
It will take 100 birth for srk to match Sultan character played by SALMAN nailed it with perfection we all know when it comes to action scenes srk look like a chuha how can he perform in sher bale scenes. Blockbuster on the way.
@Bxzone Bumper Opening; Expect A Hurricane | Sultan’s 2 days collection Will Cross lifetime Collection Mega Disaster Fan Insha allah Make My Word
During srk film release, srk fans r mostly seen online on social sites
During salman khan film release, srk fans enjoy the sk movie in theater…result of this: FAN flop and sultan ATTB
First half is very beautiful love story. 2Nd half is power packed action . Salman proved his acting talent once again .he is at his best.Story is griping. Over all very very good movie.I didn’t expect it to be that good. But it is. Ali abbas has done a brilliant job.
Ask salman relese his moive in normal day I am sure he will say no .
Let him come on non holidays with clashes then people talk about his stardom or box office , playing safe like a coward always doesn’t prove anything
mind blowing awesome salman sir
Whoever my friends had watched in they are in pvr,Hyderabad.now they’re wanting their money back!!!!!after watched the movie they were not in control and behaved like mental psychopath for around 20-30 minutes.soon after medication that returned to their normal feel.
They accepted even jail ho,prdp,dabang-!!,bg,kick,even 40cr disaster jail ho is too far better than this epic gunday legendary firector-non actor duo movie phultan.
Statutory warning: think 1000s of time before watching the mahacrap of the millenium called phultan/sultan.you’ll regret till the end of your life.
You’ll suffer from both money loss as well as your mental health,please be carefull and not only don’t watch it in halls but also don’t try to watch it in your pc/laptop by downloading from torrent/any site.simply ignore the torture,that’s it.
And all true Indians must have to boyvotg this movie because it’s the same salma who insulted WOMEN,at least for the prestige of ALL WOMEN of OUR COUNTRY,TAKE THIS OATH NOW to boycott phultan aka sultan.JAI HIND.
Let him come non holidays then speak his box office also with clashes playing safe game like a coward doesn’t make any sense he needs to prove that first
Salman Khan’s Sultan will make around Rs 160 crore over the five day weekend insha allah That is The power offf Megastar Salman khan
Jo log non holiday ki baat karte hai unke liye bhaiya “Ready” & “Jai Ho” are best example….
2 days …. 2 days is what will take for Sultan to dhobi pachad Fan
Flop
SRK must be patting himself in the back for taking the decision to run away from Sultan …. Raees would have folded below 85cr under the onslaught of Sultan ….at least he avoided the humiliation
and how many of them are non-holiday release???..probably none..probably most of them released in eid, diwali or Christmas..That’s a another reason of being these movies record-breaking.
Only star who public want to see him
Isse kehte hain “naam bade, aur darshan chote”. ???
None of the films of Salman here went on to become Highest Grosser of All Time. ?????
Aamir rules as always.
Brilliant opening
You’re the best Indian movie site, Indicine. A small request. Please try replacing the word ‘bumper’ in your articles with something else. It doesn’t sound very professional.
