War (hindi) recorded the 11th highest first weekend of all time and the highest weekend of 2019 as it beat the numbers of Bharat. Bharat had done business of 90.47 crore nett in three days while War has has done 95 crore nett. Both were holiday weekends though Bharat as on eid which had an extended holiday period. The next best film Saaho (hindi) did 80.75 crore nett on a non holiday and a limited South release which now looks an extraordinary number as War and Bharat are genuinely big films for the hindi market with starpower.

The previous best for Hrithik Roshan was 62.65 crore nett with Bang Bang while it was 72.48 crore nett for Tiger Shroff with Baaghi 2. The 100 crore nett mark is yet to be achieved and it looks like only Dabangg 3 will have a chance to get there as Housefull 4 which is the other big film left for 2019 is a pre diwali release where business is low.
