Prem Ratan Dhan Payo records 2nd highest opening day of all time

Salman Khan’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo has recorded the second highest opening day collections of all time, as the film has collected approx Rs 41.75 crore net including collections from regional versions.

The official figures for the Hindi version is Rs 40.35 crore.

The much-hyped Sooraj R Barjatya film has failed to beat the all-time record of Shah Rukh Khan’s Happy New Year, which collected Rs 42.62 crore in Hindi and Rs 44.97 crore including collections from Tamil (0.92 cr) and Telugu (1.43 cr) versions.

Considering the genre of the film, the collections of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo are outstanding. Very few family dramas in the last few years have performed well at the box office and none of them have taken a record-breaking start. We have to go back to Jab Tak Hai Jaan in 2012, which released a day before the Diwali holiday and did reasonably good business.

Check out Top 30 all time highest opening day collections of all time.

  • Awesome ? super news it proves the Salman is one and only king in the industry with kind of genre this opening is mind blowing superb.
    From today onwards families will come in big numbers awesome movie enjoyed it alot.
    Enjoy PRDP all

  • By the way who are talking about Trade Figure can any one tell me the exact Trade collection of any Bollywood film??
    Because Box office India,Trade magazine,Trade figures & all the sites who post Trade collection,All of their collection about every film always different………WHY
    I Think according to them all producers are manipulated because if BB’s official figure is 121 cr & Trade Figure 115cr then it is also manipulated & same with Pk OF 138cr & TF 130.5cr.

    By the way Trade figures always like this
    Monday 2.75cr
    Tuesday 2.50cr
    Wednesday 2.25cr
    Thursday 2 cr…………………..Why always 0.5 & 1.0 & not 0.04 or 0.07 or 0.08 etc.

    Even in USA ,UK the actual collection always post next day around 11Am but our indian Trade is so advance they always release any films figure on 10.30- 11.30 Pm….HOW

    TRADE figure always put the all Territorial collection but how the figure like this?
    Mumbai 45000000
    Delhi 30000000
    Up 15000000
    Why not 45576820 or 15555570 as you are claiming you are Trade not manipulated.

    No one can tell a film’s where official & Trade figure is equal.

    That means all producers , stars & directors are manipulated & cheaters & all Trade experts are like Youdhistir.

  • @Anand salman is one man army that why yuvraj (Katrina), kyuki (Kareena), London dreams (Asin’) were desastrous. If Deepika is big star then let see clash between dilwale vs BM

  • two min silence for those people who says salman is bigger star thn SRK…
    HNY RELEASED IN 4000screens wit 85-90? occupancy during night shows also hny got 75-80% occpancy whereas
    PRDP released in 4500screens with 75-80? occupancy…but during night shows it has got 60-65%…simply u can’t beat SRK ….give some respect to SRK..EVEN haters also knows SRK is bigger star

  • guys,just check the same attitude of srk when srk said in hny trailer “kismat bohot kutti cheese hai saali kabhi bhi palat jati hai” & now in dilwale “15 saal 4 mahine 10 din”. The last dialogue of dilwale seems to have a twist. Can we expect a twist in the car flying shetty’s film? Sorry guys,dilwale looks like the 2nd part of hny with babulal doing the comedy of abhishek. Hope i am wrong & dilwale gets success.6 min trailers made the film lengthy. Those who watch it with us in inox were happy because it was not happy new year type of film. Yes one or two brother-sister scenes were a bit slow. I think audience understand that this fault should be forgiven for such a beautiful family film. Those who would not forgive are either salman haters or incapable of appreciating such an entertaining great film. If they think that rohit shetty will give them an entertaining film,i have something to say. Yes ce was an entertaining(i think not great) film. But depika’s comedy,expressions,acting made it entertaining. Though kajol is a great actress, she wont be able to make dilwale funny. Srk & varun dont seem to do comedy as salman & akki did in mujse shadi karogi. For adhaar card banayoon & mein pregnant & babulal & srk’s one greatest romantic song with kajol will make it just one-time watch(unlike hny).

  • Happy Salman did not fake collections just for the matter of being on top
    Like other self proclaimed kings
    Losers
    Haters are burning

  • if bhai fans accept that prdp did nt break hny 1st day ,then srk fans should accept that srk is still a small star than hrithik .becoz HR touch 245cr 2 yrs back.but after 2 year srk still struggling to cross 200cr with 1000 more screen s and hiked prices.

  • And now what is this about official and trade figures………
    I don’t know why boi figures are considered trade figure……
    Who defined this nonsense definition ……
    Since prdp is not able to beat hny opening records ….people making lame excuses…….manipulation / deepika power……etc etc …..
    Ourbhai is so pure and pious like radhe ma…..he never manipulates figures…..he is epitome of truth……..
    Truth ….. My foot…..!!!!
    Bhai…..us din gaadi kon chalara ta… Kahi is movie ne hny ka record isiliye to nahi tod payi ki is movie me bbi salman khan ka driver bhai ka mask lagakar acting kar ra ta. ….

    who knows….may become next lame excuse of bhai fans…..

  • Chutzpah ho gaya re…hahhaha!! Bhaitards were anticiapting 50crs day 1 lol Congrats Bhaitards your 400crs movie is here..

    Krrish 3 did 35.91crs on its 4th day with much less ticket prices and screens..

    @indicine: It’s high time you stop calling him a megastar..Bajrangi did 320crs coz of content,everyone knows its first day footfalls were less than KICK.Aamir’s PK did same business too.

  • Records doesn’t matter but the fact is that movie is rejected by normal audience and mixed response from family audience
    Today movie dropped and advance is OK ok type
    Today it would be 25-30 crs
    Saturday advance is at a low level
    200 crs looked difficult now

  • @indicine team, we want first day occupies percentage and real screen count of both PRDP and HNY. please indicine..clarifying us..! Thanks

  • no matter wht indicine and boi said….the actual collection of prdp is 34 cr so prdp is flop …if it does more bussiness then 200cr then ramdev will be pm next time….

  • prdp 40.35
    hny 44.97
    with more screens, better wom, better director, increased
    ticket prices, bajrangi bhaijaan blockbuster effect, pure
    family clean entertainer salman failed to beat one year old
    record of hny. Baap aakhir baap hi hota hai. Only srk rules
    dilwale will break each record despite clash.

  • I was expecting it a 50 crs opening but due to negative word of mouth movie could not perform well in night shows otherwise 45 plus was an easy task for prdp
    Friday and Saturday are crucial for movie
    Weekend will be under 100

  • Considering the genre PRDP performed better than HNY…. asli aukat of srgay will come after Dilwale…
    Agar opening se koi bada star banta hai to fir John Abraham and Varun are better than akki as their film performed better than all akki films this year… so ye logic mat lagana srgay’s fan…. nahi to fir yaad dila dunga Ghajini’s opening, 3 idiot’s opening, dabangg’s opening, bodyguard’s opening, ETT’s opening, dabangg 2’s opening, all opening were better than srgay’s opening till CE came and brokes by manipulating. after CE, Dhoom 3 broken the record of CE that means in 2013 Aamit was way bigger than Gay. agar opening ke wajah se koi bada star hota hai to phirr srgay 2014 mein hi star bana hai… ROFL….

  • Baap baap hota hai our beta beta hota hai like in cricket Dhoni is still the boss of indian cricket some of think virat is over him same here SRK is always on top . to much hike prize hit jodi and 4500 screens and still 41 cr to much fun .

  • @indicine plz ans my qstn if u have time …prdp breaks all ckt record approximate ..higher screen higher prize how coluld movie not cross 45 cr..? Hny less screen less prize as compare to prdp even less in ckt record ..as compare to prdp how could mange 45 cr..? Can u explain ya my all data is wrong..?

  • All bhaitards crying and sulking .. You’ll can go and comment on BOI’s website. No one gives a shit about BOI. Acc to BOI, SRK is the biggest star since the past 2 decade. So accept that fact as well if you really ‘trust’ BOI. Stop embarrassing yourselves now. Pack your bags and leave indicine ! Come On !

  • These are awesome collections. Congrats to Salman fans. And they should have enuf courage to accept the fact that PRDP couldnt beat HNY collections. The genre made the difference. Had the movie been a masala movie like Dabang or ETT then it surely would have crossed HNY. They should respect the official figures of HNY and should not act as cry babies. They should be proud of Salman and these awesome box office collections.

  • @Indicine, it is said
    Ticket Prices PRDP >>> HNY
    Screen Counts PRDP>>> HNY
    Occupancy PRDP >>> HNY according to u.

    Then why should there be less collections than HNY?
    Whats the logic? Whats the reason if no manipulations??
    Please answer…

  • Prem Ratan Dhan Payo smashed all opening day box office records as it grossed 39 crore nett on day one beating the previous record of Happy New Year by around 2.75 crore nett. The film hit new opening day records in Mumbai, Delhi / UP, East Punjab, Rajasthan, CP Berar, CI, Bihar and Assam. There was an Telugu and Tamil version of the film but that did not do well with collections of less than 1 crore nett.
    sourse: box office india..
