Tiger 3 has entered the 200 Crore Club and it's now the 35th Hindi release to do that. If one counts only Bollywood films (and leaves aside the dubbed Hindi versions of Baahubali: The Conclusion, KGF: Chapter 2 and RRR, then it's 32nd film to achieve this feat.
It has taken six days for this 'spy universe' installment to reach here and while Rs 250 crore mark should be crossed in quick time and Rs 275 crore in lifetime earnings is also a possibility, Rs 300 crore from theatre shows would be a challenge for the film. If it manages to actually reach there as well, then it would be among an elite set of just 12 entries so far.

What's all the more remarkable is that Salman Khan has quite a history when it comes to finding entry in the 200 crore-plus list. He has as many as seven films in this club, right from Tiger Zinda Hai, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Sultan in the 300 Crore Club, followed by Kick, Bharat, n and now Tiger 3. His newest release will go past the lifetime score of all these double century makers, to eventually challenge the likes of RRR [Hindi], Kabir Singh and Tanhaji - The Unsung Warrior.
Meanwhile, Friday release Khichdi 2: Mission Paanthukistan, or Khichdi 2, has taken a fair start of Rs 1.10 crore. There weren't many expectations from this small film to begin with, especially so since it has seen a minuscule release. However, it was comparatively more prominent in Gujarat, considering the local flavour and a predominantly Gujarati cast (including Supriya Pathak and Pratik Gandhi). No wonder, more than 50 percent of the collections have come from this state. This comedy based on a TV show would now be aiming for a lifetime score of over Rs 10 crore and that would be a decent enough number considering the film's scale and size.
