Samrat Prithviraj Box Office: Akshay Kumar’s film collects Rs 40 crore, routs Major & Vikram in 1st weekend
Samrat Prithviraj has collected Rs 40 crore in the first weekend at the box office and has completely routed its opponents Vikram and Major in the Hindi markets.
Samrat Prithviraj, starring Akshay Kumar and Manushi Chhillar in lead roles, has picked up the pace on Sunday at the ticket window and will be wrapping up the first weekend with Rs 40 crore collections. After witnessing a rather slow start on Friday, with a Rs 10.70 crore opening, the business picked up on Saturday and Sunday and Samrat Prithviraj has managed to score a good first weekend at the box office despite competition from two regional releases.
BOI stated that the circuits that contributed more to the collections of Samrat Prithviraj were the Hindi belts with Maharashtra showing a little underwhelming response.
Meanwhile, Samrat Prithviraj has completely routed the other two regional releases– Vikram and Major– in the Hindi version. While Kamal Haasan-starrer Vikram earned Rs 2 crore plus in the first weekend, Adivi Sesh’s Major collected Rs 5 crore. However, the two movies have done extremely well in the local markets.
Vikram earned Rs 42 crore for the Tamil version in the opening weekend while Major has Rs 17 crore plus collection for the original Telugu version.
