Salman Khan, Sonakshi Sinha and Saiee Manjrekar starrer Dabangg 3 has finally seen some good collections six days after its release. Although the film opened well compared to other films, it was a little slow compared to being a much-awaited film of Salman. The film has entered the Rs 100 crore club and witnessed a growth of 65 on Christmas.
The film is a prequel to the other two parts of the franchise and sees Salman reprise his roel of Chulbul Pandey and Sonakshi as his wife Rajjo. Dabangg 3 is directed by Prabhudheva and also stars Arbaaz Khan, Mahie Gill and Kichcha Sudeep. The film has garnered Rs 119.55 crore in all versions.
