War (Hindi) created history by collecting the highest first day figure of all time. The film collected a huge 51.50 crore nett ap[prx on day one which smashed the records of Thugs of Hindostan which set a record on Diwali last year. There was new highs across the board as it sert new circuit highs in practically all circuits.
The highlight was Delhi / UP and East Punjab as the latter crossed 5 crore nett and Delhi / UP went to almost 11 crore nett. No other film has even crossed 10 crore nett in the circuit.Gujarat / Saurashtra was also a new record in the new tax regime as the taxes are up in tis circuit compared to the time of Entertainment tax. The single screen numbers are crazy as it was practically housefull all day across UP. Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. It is easily the biggest opening day ever for Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff and has doubled the numbers of their previous bests.
Also the film was only released in 3850 screens in Hindi due to the competition which is low count for such a big film as it could have went to 4700 or 4800 if it was a normal release and you can easily give 5 crore for these screens. Now it is about at what levels the film will hold over the next few days as there will be drops coming of these huge holiday numbers. The regional versions of the film could add 1.50-1.75 crore nett as the Telegu version has netted around 1 crore nett.
