SON OF SARDAAR box office report: Ajay Devgn’s entertainer touches the Rs 100 crore mark

SOS has finally made it to the coveted Rs 100 crore club. While Ajay’s flick took 16 days to get there, SRK’s Jab Tak Hai Jaan made it in just 11 days

 After all the sho-sha surrounding Son Of Sardaar, producer-actor Ajay Devgn can now heave a sigh of relief. Devgn, who vigorously fought the distribution battle with Yash Raj Films, finally has reasons to smile. The romantic comedy touched the Rs 100 crore mark on the auspicious day of Gurunanak Jayanti, 16 days after its release. Naturally, the actor proudly announced the news on Twitter and thanked all his fans: ‘100 crores only in India! What a day for Son Of Sardaar to cross 100 Crores on guru nanakji’s birthday! I am blessed! Thank u everyone’.

In the meanwhile, the Shahrukh Khan-Katrina Kaif-Anushka Sharma starrer Jab Tak Hai Jaan made at a budget of Rs Rs 50 crores surpassed the milestone figure in just 11 days since its release, but it also had more screens as compared to SOS. The over-whelming response to SOS at single screen centres, pushed theatre owners and distributors to give 238 additional screens to the movie in its second week, which certainly helped it to cross the Rs 100 crore mark. The film may not be able to earn more moolahonce Talaash hits the screens tomorrow.

But now that both JTHJ and SOS have hit the bull’s eye, let’s wait and watch if Talaash and Dabangg 2 too can create new box office records.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan SUPER HIT Son Of Sardaar HIT

Jab Tak Hai Jaan SUPER HIT Son Of Sardaar HIT

Life Of Pi opened had a good 50% opening at multiplexes across the big cities. the film will record healthy figures for a day one.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan has grossed 91 crore after ten days and has done well at multiplexes. As with films like Ra.One and Don 2 the final business will not be as much as SRK starrers should be doing in the domestic market especially as holiday releases but the difference here is that its not a big budget venture. Although it was one of the event films of 2012 the costs involved are more on the lines of a Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Student Of The Year rather than a Don 2 or Ek Tha Tiger. SUPER HIT

Son Of Sardaar has done well all over apart from West Bengal and South grossing 75 crore nett in ten days. Despite the restricted release for a such a film and competition from a Shahrukh Khan starrer the film has grossed well in most circuits. The poor release at single screens has cost the film as the film has done better at single screens and if the film had released at the better single screens, it would have put up higher numbers. HIT
