Kabir Singh: Shahid gets his first Rs 100 cr-grosser

Kabir Singh is rock steady on Tuesday as it has a very limited drop from Monday.

The film should collect in the 16 crore nett range on Tuesday which would mean the film has hardly dropped 5% from Monday which is fantastic trending at these levels.

This will take the film to around 104 crore nett in just five days and looking at the trend so far the film could go anywhere.

The drop on Tuesday was at the bigger multiplexes while mass centres showed no drop and some even went up.

It has already crossed the first week business of all releases this year barring one in just five days and this includes some films which had extended eight day first weeks.

The only film of which it has not crossed teh first week business of Bharat but it will be no surprise if it crosses the lifetime business of that film considering the first five days of this film.

Kabir Singh is an official remake of the 2017 Telugu blockbuster Arjun Reddy that featured Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini Pandey as the lead pair.

The film is directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who also helmed the original. It narrates the story of an alcoholic, brash surgeon who takes the path of self-destruction after his girlfriend marries someone else.

The positive portrayal of the lead character has received criticism from several quarters. Most film critics found it “disturbingly misogynistic” and “violent.” The negative reviews, however, have had no effect on the film’s business.
