Salman Khan Set for Another Box-Office Record With Kick
Salman Khan-starrer Kick continued its strong performance at the domestic box office, collecting close to Rs 100 crore in its first four days.
According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Kick grossed Rs 14.41 crore on Monday, bringing its total domestic box-office collection at Rs 98.14 crore. Kick also worked its magic in international markets. In its first four days, it grossed over Rs 24 crore in overseas markets, Mr Adarsh said in a tweet.
With Kick set to enter the Rs 100 crore club, Salman Khan will become the first Bollywood actor to have seven Rs 100 crore movies to his credit: Ek Tha Tiger, Dabangg 2, Bodyguard, Dabangg, Ready, and Jai Ho. "With #Kick racing towards Rs 100 cr mark, Salman Khan is the first actor to have the *maximum* 100 cr grossers to his credit: 7 films!," Mr Adarsh tweeted.
Kick is also expected to get a big box-office boost due to Eid holiday on Tuesday. Industry experts expect the movie to garner Rs 30 crore revenue at least on Tuesday
Kick is a remake of the hit 2009 Telegu film of the same name and the screenplay for the hindi version was adapted by Chetan Bhagat and Sajid Nadiadwala, who's also the director-producer of the movie. The film has been released under the Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment banner.
Kick stars Salman Khan in the lead role, alongside Jacqueline Fernandez, Randeep Hooda, Mithun Chakraborty and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
