The advance did not look like going past Sultan but the Tiger roared on Thursday and had a fantastic day in terms of advance. Its going to be huge first day but it will be the on the day audience which is going to take to a non holiday record and higher. It is a non holiday so the footfalls can drop in certain parts of the day especially with odd timing screenings and many of the previous big opening days have come on holidays. There is the higher ticket rate to compensate a little for this non holiday factor so its going to be an interesting where the film lands. Bahubali - The Conclusion is the highest opening day ever and only film to cross 40 crore nett on day one and on advance that does look tough but the advance of Tiger Zinda Hai hit real blockbuster momentum pretty late and if that continues into tomorrow then anything is possible.
Tiger Zinda Hai Takes biggest advance ever after Bahubali - The Conclusion
All Time Top Ten Advances - Tiger Zinda Hai Second
Tiger Zinda Hai has taken the biggest advance ever after Bahubali - The Conclusion and the highest ever if we count only outright Hindi films. The film has managed to outscore Sultan in terms of big city multiplex sales but is lower in other multiplexes and single screens as Sultan had that Eid period which is huge with the mass audience especially in Muslim centres.

Below are the top ten advances of all time and Salman Khan starrers dominate with six out of the ten biggest advances in history in terms of amount collected. After Tubelight there may been doubters as to the biggest star in India but this comes mainly as many fail to understand that star power is about opening and not the end result otherwise the actors in Bahubali - The Conclusion can be given star status. Despite the failure of Tubelight its hardly made any difference to the pulling power of Salman Khan as the advance results of Tiger Zinda Hai show.
Note - The figures of Tiger Zinda Hai are not final and can go higher as bookings at some multiplexes get late updates in their systems. All others are final.
