Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan Steamrolls Through Aamir's Week One Record

New Delhi: Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan is shattering box office records into smithereens with each passing day. The actor's eighth-in-a-row blockbuster has posted the highest ever week one collection of any Bollywood film, steamrolling through the benchmarks previously set by his fellow Khans - Aamir's PK and Shah Rukh's Happy New Year.

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted:

#BajrangiBhaijaan Fri 27.25 cr, Sat 36.60 cr, Sun 38.75 cr, Mon 27.05 cr, Tue 21.40 cr, Wed 18.02 cr, Thu 15.55 cr. Total: RS 184.62 cr. WOW!

Records are meant to be shattered. And #BajrangiBhaijaan is doing just that. Crosses *Week 1* biz of #PK [RS 183.09 cr] & #HNY [RS 157.57 cr].

Bajrangi Bhaijaan also made the quickest 100 crores ever, in its first weekend.

Despite having been in theatres for just a week, it's already Salman's third biggest film after 2014's Kick and 2013's Ek Tha Tiger:

#BajrangiBhaijaan is now 3rd HIGHEST grosser of Salman, after #ETT and #Kick... Will emerge HIGHEST grosser in Week 2. India biz. AWESOME!

Bajrangi Bhaijaan, which released last Friday, reunites Salman with three previous collaborators who have delivered blockbusters with him before: director Kabir Khan who also made Ek Tha Tiger, Kareena Kapoor who was his heroine in Bodyguard, and Nawazuddin SSiddiqui who appeared in Kick.
