Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff starrer WAR has created history on day 1 of its release. The biggest action spectacle of Bollywood lived up to its massive pre-release hype as it collected 53.35 crore nett all India (Hindi : Rs 51.60 crore and Tamil + Telugu - Rs 1.75 crore). In fact, the film not only witnessed the biggest opening in the history of Hindi cinema but also emerged to be the biggest opening for both Hrithik and Tiger.
On its second day, the film has collected Rs 23.10 crore (Hindi) and Rs 1.25 crore (Tamil + Telugu), taking the overall two day collections to Rs 77.7 crore. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the numbers on Twitter and said that WAR should gather momentum on Day 4 [Saturday] and Day 5 [Sunday], thus packing a superb total in its extended weekend.
#War is super-strong on Day 2 [working day], after the national holiday on Day 1 [#GandhiJayanti]... Collecting 20 cr+ on a working day - which happens to be Day 2 in this case - is a rarity... An achievement, since most biggies don’t score 20 cr on Day 1.

Despite it being a working day, collecting Rs 20 crore on day 2 is a rarity since most big films don’t score so much on day 1 too. Produced by YRF, War released in 4000 screens and 150-200 screens will be added from today.
