SULTAN had a good third week grossing around 15.75 crore nett which is a 68% drop from last week. The third week collection is highest of the year with only AIRLIFT being the other film to cross 10 crore nett in week three. In the all time list it is the tenth highest third week collection ever which is good considering the extended run in the first week. As for Salman Khan starrers the third week collections are third highest after BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN (28.76 crore) and DABANGG (17.55 crore). The total business of the film is around 294 crore nett with a distributor share of over 150 crore. The film has set a record for the highest share ever in East Punjab though the nett collections are still a little short of BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN and PK. The business of SULTAN till date is as follows.
Week One (extended) - 2,29,37,00,000
Week Two - 48,89,00,000
Week 3 - 15,75,00,000 apprx
Grand TOTAL - 2,94,01,00,000 apprx

The film needs another 6 crore nett to hit the 300 crore nett mark and will need around 60 lakhs nett or above on the fourth Friday to stay in the race, if the figure is 50 lakhs nett or less then its probably going to stay under 300 crore nett. Basically a similar drop to last week will see it through but there is a much bigger release this week in the form of DISHOOM.
