Did Diljit Dosanjh & Hania Aamir Really Beat Ranbir Kapoor in Pakistan Box Office? Fact Check

Diljit Dosanjh’s film Sardaar Ji 3 has been released worldwide, except in India due to featuring Pakistani actress Hania Aamir. The film has set two box office records - it surpassed Salman Khan’s Sultan as the biggest Indian opener in Pakistan and has become the highest-grossing Indian film in Pakistan.

Out of these claims, one is true while the other is slightly exaggerated. The film earned 3 crore on day 1 in Punjab, making it the biggest Indian opener in the region. However, it is not yet the highest-grossing Indian film in Pakistan.

Overseas, Sardaar Ji 3 collected 4.32 crore on day 1, 6.71 crore on day 2, and 7.07 crore on day 3, totaling 18.01 crore in three days.

To become the highest-grossing Indian film in Pakistan, Sardaar Ji 3 needs to surpass 37.6 crore and beat Ranbir Kapoor’s Sanju.

Here is a list of the highest-grossing Bollywood films in Pakistan (Collections in INR): Sanju: 37.6 crore, Sultan: 33 crore, Dhoom 3: 25 crore, PK: 23.50 crore, Bajrangi Bhaijaan: 23.20 crore, Padmaavat: 22.50 crore, Simmba: 21.50 crore, Dilwale: 20.05 crore, Kick: 16.35 crore, Thugs Of Hindostan: 15.50 crore.
