Pathaan has broken and rewritten several records at the box office in its extended first weekend. Now what remains to be seen is how it performs on weekdays. The advance bookings for Monday have been really good, hinting at a big first weekday. But even the ticket prices will be less, so it remains to be seen how soon the film crosses Rs 300 crore mark. Worldwide too, it has crossed Rs 500 crores gross at the BO. Apart from SRK’s return to the big screen, it is Salman Khan in his cameo as Tiger that has worked wonders for the film. Now, the curiosity for Pathaan and Tiger’s reunion in Tiger 3 is at an all time high.
