Records are meant to be shattered. And #BajrangiBhaijaan is doing just that. Crosses *Week 1* biz of #PK [ 183.09 cr] & #HNY [ 157.57 cr].

Bajrangi Bhaijaan has had an extraordinary first week as the collections on Thursday finished at around 15.75 crore nett which takes the week to 180.75 crore nett. The first week record stands at 181.23 crore nett and it remains to be seen if Bajrangi Bhaijaan is a record or not when final collections come in over the next day or so. Its looking a photo finish with PK.
Basically if it was not for Baahubali retaining important single screens in the South then Bajrangi Bhaijaan would have set a first week record by a margin. The other places where it is set to behind PK is Mumbai but in most other circuits it has smashed PK records.
The last two days have been important as the Eid holidays came to an end in various states and Bajrangi Bhaijaan has held up extremely well. The film is a huge hit but the next two Fridays are important for the benchmarks. The business today will tell whether it can reach the 300 crore nett mark and if this test is passed then it goes to next Friday which will determine if the PK lifetime can be challenged.
