Who could have thought that a biopic story of a wrestler and his two daughters would seize the world with such force that it would go on to become an epic movie for Bollywood. Yes, we are talking about none other than “Dangal”, the movie that has gone on to create history with its box-office collections, both in India, the US and across the world.
Since its release on 23rd December 2016, there has not been a day that the movie has lost its grip on the audience. The collections have been strong and consistent.
“Dangal” has steadfastly been crossing milestones with its collection spree i.e.
- Rs. 50 crores on Day 2
- Rs.100 crores on day3
- Rs.150 crores on day 5
- Rs. 200 crores on day 8
- Rs. 250 crores on its 10th Day
The movie is equally engrossing and just like its collections; it does not lapse even once all through its run time.
Laced with poignant relationships
The heart-wrenching moments, the placement of the songs, the powerful performances laced with innocence are managing to weave such a magic that audience are being lured to theaters.
Public response
The reel Mahavir Singh Phogat and his two daughters have given such acclaim to the real Wrestler and his daughters, that they are basking in the limelight from an oblivious state in life. Such is the power of “Dangal” and its team.
