Box Office: Shah Rukh Khan's Raees BREAKS record on Day 2!

Shah Rukh Khan's Raees has actually gone further up on Thursday. The film collected around Rs 26 crore on day two, according to early estimates. 

No film has ever done this sort of business with a clash and with the sort of limited capacity it has. It is the highest day collection ever for a film when there have been two films released on the same day. The growth is around 30% which is excellent considering it had a strong day one and its two total is around 46.50 crore nett. Of course the big Republic Day holiday has helped its cause tremendously. 

Today, the film will see a dip in numbers and that is expected since this is a working day. Still, even a 15 crore number would be good though indications so far are that the hold would be even better, especially since people would come to theatres in big number for evening and night shows the weekend beginning.

Shah Rukh Khan has a lot to cheer about with these collections since he has managed to score so huge despite the presence of Kaabil in over 2000 screens. As a matter of fact on Thursday the Hrithik Roshan starrer scored quite huge and was clearly attracting a huge count of footfalls. Still, this Rahul Dholakia film has not just maintained very good numbers but also got added momentum going for it.

The film is on its way to be a clean Hit and it has to be seen how much further does it go from here.
