Shah Rukh Khan’s spy thriller, Pathaan, has made history by becoming the first Bollywood movie to cross the $100 million milestone without a release in China. The movie has generated $103.6 million in box office revenue through Monday, with $64.2 million in India and $39.4 million from overseas markets.
North America is the lead offshore market for Pathaan, with $14.3 million through Sunday, and is expected to surpass the record set by RRR this week. Pathaan is also the highest-grossing Indian film in the UAE and Gulf States, with $11.4 million, and in the UK, it became the first Indian film to cross £3 million ($3.6 million).
Australia and New Zealand have also embraced Pathaan, with the movie becoming the leading Indian title in both markets and breaking box office records. Vue International’s Group Regional Director of Content, Eduardo Leal, praised the success of the film, saying it’s already almost twice as popular as the next best-performing South Asian titles in the UK.
With a clear run in the Indian market until the release of Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania on February 17, Pathaan continues to make waves at the global box office and is solidifying its place in Bollywood history
