Shah Rukh Khan’s film registers the highest-ever advance ticket sales
(Web Desk) - Jawan has registered the highest-ever advance ticket sales for any Shah Rukh Khan film with 1.6 million tickets sold in India.
Shah Rukh Khan’s actioner Jawan was released in theatres on Thursday, and it already looks unstoppable. The Atlee directorial is writing new records to its name from the day of its release itself.
While there are no doubts about Jawan leaving behind Shah Rukh’s Pathaan in terms of opening day figures, the film has also registered the highest-ever advance ticket sales for any SRK film with 1.6 million tickets sold in India.
Ticket aggregator BookMyShow revealed on Thursday that the sale of Jawan tickets had grown manifold, and so far, 2.5 million tickets had been sold.
Ashish Saksena, COO – Cinemas, BookMyShow said, “Sales have picked up across the length and breadth of the country for all languages, growing multi-fold for the Tamil and Telugu versions of the film, although the Hindi version is naturally taking the lead.”
He added, “While the movie is expectedly raking in numbers at multiplexes, it has garnered spectacular interest from audiences opting to watch the mass entertainer at a single-screen theatre across the length and breadth of the country. Ticket sales for Jawan at single-screen theatres alone have contributed a significant 36% of sales on BookMyShow so far.”
