Ranbir Kapoor’s starrer Animal continues its triumphant roar at the box office, evident from its day 12 earnings. As the twelfth day unfolded, the Sandeep Reddy directorial showcased its enduring appeal with a box office collection of $90.8 million worldwide.
Animal’s domestic box office earning was $1.5 million on its second Tuesday. This follows closely on the heels of Monday’s robust performance, where the film earned $1.6 million.
Animal’s success story doesn’t stop here. It recently etched its name in the annals of Hindi movie history by delivering the biggest second-weekend haul ever, amassing a staggering $10 million. Now, after a dozen days of gracing the theatres, Animal has galloped to a monumental total of $54 million in India.
Industry trackers, such as Sacnilk, predict that the upcoming weekend will witness Animal crossing the elusive $59 million mark domestically. This impending milestone will solidify its position as the fourth Hindi film in 2023 to achieve such a feat. Animal will join the esteemed ranks of Pathaan, Gadar 2, and Jawan.
All in all, this movie marks a pivotal moment in Ranbir Kapoor’s career, surpassing the success of his previous top-grosser, 2018’s Sanju. The latter garnered approximately $70 million worldwide. Additionally, as Animal continues its roaring success, it is poised to clash with two big blockbuster upcoming releases – Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki and Prabhas’ Salaar.
