New Delhi: Day one profits for Shah Rukh Khan’s next film, Jawan, are expected to be between Rs 65 and 70 crores, which would surpass the opening day numbers for SRK’s own film, Pathaan.

The success of Pathaan marked the beginning of a successful year for Bollywood. People have returned to the theatres in droves thanks to films like Gadar 2, OMG 2, Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, and many more.

The nationwide excitement that Shah Rukh Khan has sparked has resulted in unprecedented pre-release sales of his next film, Jawan. As of now, ticket marketplace BookMyShow reports that over 7.5 million tickets have been sold in India.

It has been announced that more than 4500 theatres will be showing Jawan upon its premiere.

Manobala Vijayabalan, an industry expert in the film business, tweeted, “SOLD 7 lac tickets & CROSSES ₹20 cr gross mark across all theatres in India.
