THE KASHMIR FILES had an extraordinary second Friday as it recorded the the second highest second Friday ever after BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONCLUSION. This second Friday has come with the competition of BACHCHHAN PAANDEY and if that was not there, it was sure to be the highest second Friday in history.

BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONCLUSION had recorded a near 20 crore nett second Friday with no major competition on its second Friday and THE KASHMIR FILES has collected 19-19.50 crore nett apprx with the competition of a big film like BACHCHHAN PAANDEY.

THE KASHMIR FILES is continuing its insane run and its still impossible to stay where it will end up. The eight day was the best day in its run so far and it could still be going higher over the weekend. As mentioned before, there is only one comparison to this film in history and that is JAI SANTOSHI MAA (1975) which was another very small film which ran riot at the box office putting up huge grosses for the time.

The similarities do not end at just being small films but both also catered heavily to the Hindu community which forms the bulk of the film going audience in India. JAI SANTOSHI MAA (1975) was a mythological and did through religion while THE KASHMIR FILES is more of a dark drama and probably does through shock value and political undertones.  

The film now stands at around 115 crore nett in eight days and the 200 crore nett mark is there for the taking by the end of week two. In two weeks it will become the highest grossing film post the pandemic and there will be plenty of gas left in the tank.

The collections of THE KASHMIR FILES till date are as follows.

Friday - 3,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 8,25,00,000 apprx
