Thus the overall collection of Kalki 2898 AD stands at Rs 620.35 crore, at the end of 27 days. At this point, Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan had minted Rs 611.67 crore and by the end of its theatrical run, which was about 57 days, the film had earned Rs 640.25 crore. Jawan continues to be the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time.
It would be interesting to see if Kalki 2898 AD would be able to break this record, given the difference between the two films is just about 20 crore. Kalki 2898 AD has a free run at the box office till the Independence Day weekend, with just Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha starring Ajay Devgn and Tabu, arriving on August 2. The film was postponed from July 5 since Kalki 2898 AD was doing mindblowing business at the box office.
During the Independence Day weekend, four films are releasing together – Stree 2, Khel Khel Mein, Vedaa, and Thangalam, and all of them will eat into the business of Kalki 2898 AD.
