Bharat recorded the second highest opening of all time with collections of 41.50 crore nett though in GROSS terms it will go down to fifth position due to tax changes.It is the third film to go over 40 crore nett and the highest Salman Khan opening day. But even here the GROSS numbers will be less than Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.
Below are the top twenty five opening days in history in terms of collections and there are ten Salman Khan films in the list which is 40% of the films. The next best is Aamir Khan with four films while Shahrukh Khan, Ajay Devgn and Hrithik Roshan have two each and one each for Akshay Kumar, Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Tiger Shroff and then there is Bahubali - The Conclusion which is probably the stand out as it was a non holiday and without much of the South markets
