Nothing
Can
Stop
War
From
Minting
Money
At
The
Box
Office
Considering
War
is
a
holiday
release
and
word-of-mouth
for
the
film
is
in
its
favour,
the
number
is
only
expected
to
grow
during
the
weekend.
Even
though,
War
has
received
mixed
reviews
from
the
critics,
the
film
is
being
widely
praised
for
its
high-octane
action
scenes
and
the
camaraderie
between
its
two
lead
actors.
Will
War
Break
The
Opening
Record
Of
The
Khans?
Reportedly,
War
registered
a
strong
70
per
cent
occupancy
rate
on
its
opening
day,
which
is
nothing
but
amazing!
As
far
as
opening
day
records
are
concerned,
Aamir
Khan's
Thugs
of
Hindostan
leads
the
pack
with
Rs
52
crore,
followed
by
Shahrukh
Khan's
Happy
New
Year
with
Rs
45
crore.
This
year,
Salman
Khan's
Bharat
earned
Rs
42
crore
on
its
opening
day
and
it
is
yet
to
be
seen
if
Hrithik
and
Tiger
manage
to
break
any
of
these
records.
