Amidst the mounting anticipation surrounding Karan Johar's ability to deliver a much-needed blockbuster to Bollywood with "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani," the film starring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh finally graced theaters worldwide on a Friday.
Taking a bold move, the movie premiered just a week after the 'Barbenheimer' clash. Interestingly, this decision seems to favor the KJo film, as the buzz around Greta Gerwig's Barbie has dwindled in India, while still maintaining interest in other parts of the world. At present, "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani" faces competition solely from Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer."
According to the early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk, "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani" managed to rake in an impressive Rs 11.5 crore from Indian theaters on Friday. However, the film's opening day collection falls short of Christopher Nolan's movie, which opened with Rs 14.5 crore at the Indian box office.
Among the Hindi films released in 2023, Karan Johar's creation secures the fifth position for the highest opening day collections of the year. The top four spots are occupied by "Pathaan" (Rs 57 crore), "Adipurush" (Rs 36 crore), "Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan" (Rs 15.81 crore), and "Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar" (Rs 15.73 crore), as reported by Bollywood Hungama.
