Aamir Khan’s latest film, Sitaare Zameen Par, is already making waves at the box office, and this time for all the right reasons. After the lukewarm response to the actor’s last prestigious project, Laal Singh Chaddha, which failed to impress both, critics and audience, all eyes were on this new heartfelt film. Moreover, there were speculations by some experts that Sitaare Zameen Par might not fare well, especially at a time when high-budget films are failing at the box office. Still, the film has proved all the predictions wrong with its initial collections.
Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameer Par beats the lifetime collections of Emergency
Aamir Khan has once again proved why he is one of the most dependable storytellers in Bollywood as Sitaare Zameen Par, directed by R.S. Prasanna, has already crossed the Rs. 50 crore mark at the box office within two days of its release. According to a report by Sacnilk, the film earned Rs. 10.7 crore on its first day of release with a steep rise of Rs. 20.2 crore on the second day.
Consequently, the film earned Rs. 30.90 crore net in India and Rs. 37 crore gross domestically. At the same time, an additional Rs. 13 crore came from overseas markets. As a result, the total global earnings of the film stands at an impressive Rs. 50 crore. In comparison, Kangana’s Emergency collection stands at Rs. 23.75, whereas soon the Aamir Khan starrer will beat Shahid Kapoor’s Deva‘s lifetime earnings, which stand at Rs. 55.8 crore.
