It has become the fourth film of 2018 that crossed 100 crores and joined Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmaavat, Luv Ranjan’s Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety and Tiger Shroff starrer Baaghi 2. It will add another 2-3 crores to its kitty and the lifetime collection will remain below 105 crores. The films of Ajay Devgn that crossed 100 crores mark are as follow:
Golmaal Again – 205.70 crore
Singham Returns – 140 crore
Golmaal 3 – 106 crore
Son of Sardaar – 105 crore
Bol Bachchan – 103 crore
Shivaay – 100.30 crore
Singham – 100.30 crore
Raid – 100.14 crore* (still running)
Ajay Devgan’s movies always fail to score a big hundred despite good content.
Very good movie. Should have earned more than 110 crores.
