Filmmaker Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again, the third film in the Singham franchise, was one of the most keenly awaited films of the year. On top of that, when the film’s lengthy and explosive trailer was out, the excitement reached even higher. This was also seen in the advance booking leading up to the film. All this ensured that the movie has opened to a huge number of Rs. 43.70 crores, despite a clash with another biggie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
This is also the highest opener for the film’s leading man Ajay Devgn. Interestingly, before Singham Again, his highest opener was the second film in the Singham franchise titled Singham Returns (2014), which opened at Rs. 32.09 crores.
The third film in the list is Golmaal Again with Rs. 30.14 crores. Interestingly, all the top three highest openers of his have been Rohit Shetty movies. This speaks volumes about the successful pair the actor and director share.
