“Jawan,” the Shah Rukh Khan starrer, is making waves at the box office, both domestically and internationally. With an addition of Rs. 566 crores from its Indian audience, the film’s worldwide gross now stands at an impressive Rs. 862 crores. It’s now on the verge of achieving the monumental milestone of 1000 crores.
International Box Office Triumph
During its second weekend in overseas markets, “Jawan” continued its remarkable performance by raking in USD 7.30 million. This boosted its cumulative international earnings to an astonishing USD 35.60 million (Rs. 296 crores). Notably, “Jawan” exhibited better staying power compared to its predecessor “Pathaan,” with a weekend-to-weekend drop of only 57 percent, outshining “Pathaan,” which experienced a 60 percent drop. With this trajectory, “Jawan” is well-positioned to surpass USD 45 million overseas. If it maintains its strong performance, it may even come close to the record set by “Pathaan” at USD 49.40 million, making it the highest-grossing Bollywood film overseas, excluding the Chinese market.
Bollywood’s New Milestone
“Jawan” is rewriting the history of Bollywood box office collections. With its remarkable success, it is set to become the second Shah Rukh Khan film to cross the four-digit figure in 2023, following “Pathaan.” This achievement was once considered unimaginable for a Bollywood film without the Chinese market. Currently, “Dangal” is the only other Bollywood film that has crossed the Rs. 1000 crores mark.
Age Ratings and Overseas Reception
Despite its success, “Jawan” has faced age restrictions in most overseas territories, which historically pose challenges for films. However, the film has managed to overcome these obstacles and continue its triumphant journey.
“Jawan” has become a significant milestone in Shah Rukh Khan’s career, setting new records and pushing the boundaries of Bollywood’s global appeal. With its strong performance both in India and overseas, it reaffirms Shah Rukh Khan’s status as one of India’s biggest cinematic stars.
