More than 5 lakh tickets for Jawan’s opening day have already been sold, according to the most recent statistics. Last week, advance booking for the action movie was finally made available in India, with some theatres charging as much as ₹2,400 for tickets.

Sharing the numbers from multiplexes, Manobala tweeted the data without block seats, “Jawan day 1 advance sales.

South-like craze for Jawan

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh also tweeted about Jawan’s advance booking and early morning shows in different cities. He said, “While Jawan is having SOLID advances at national chains, the advance booking status at non-national chain cinemas and single screens is PHENOMENAL as well… Single screens in Delhi, UP, Rajasthan, Bihar and the Hindi heartland are showing EXCEPTIONAL results… So much so that several exhibitors are commencing shows at 6am, even at tier-2 centres, due to the heavy demand.”

The Box Office is set to explode.

The box office performance of Jawan is anticipated to be excellent, and Shah Rukh is anticipated to have a second straight global opening of at least ₹100 crores in the same year as his popular spy movie Pathaan. In the same year, Jawan has the potential to bring in another ₹1000 crores for the actor post-Pathaan’.

Together with Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, Sunil Grover, Yogi Babu, and Ridhi Dogra, Jawan, which is directed by Atlee and made by Red Chillies Entertainment, also has these actors and more. It will be shown in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu theaters.
