And despite a rather disappointing run at the domestic box office where it could nett only around Rs 140 crore, the film's exceptional reception across the globe has catapulted it to become one of the biggest Bollywood grossers of the year, second only to Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan. If you consider all Indian films, then it's the third highest grosser after Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 630 crore) and Baahubali (Rs 600 crore). Nevertheless, this will surely put a smile back on SRK's face for sure!
