Kareena Kusari|Dec 31, 2018

The movie starring Ranveer Singh, Sara Ali Khan and Sonu Sood kicked off with an extraordinary achievement.

Simmba has hit the worldwide cinemas since December 28, 2018

Simmba under the direction of Rohit Shetty is currently ruling the box office. The movie starring the actor Ranveer Singh, the actress Sara Ali Khan and the actor Sonu Sood kicked off with an extraordinary achievement.

Earning an amount of Rs 20.72 crore on the premiere, Simmba unseated the movie Padmaavat helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali to hold the first position among Ranveer's highest-grossing opening movies.

After two days of its release, Simmba grossed a massive Rs 44.05 crore at the box office.

Currently, it is expected to continue achieving a substantial increase on the third day. According to the previous predictions, Simmba’s box-office earnings will reach approximately Rs 27 crore on Sunday.

Not only achieving the spectacular receipts in the domestic market, especially in Mumbai, but Simmba also has a successful performance at the international box office including USA, UK, Canada, UAE and Australia.

Simmba is remade from 2015 Telugu-language action blockbuster named Temper. The main actors Ranveer Singh and the actress Sara Ali Khan will portray two extremely successful roles played by N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and Kajal Aggarwal in Temper.

The movie's plot revolves around the corrupt police named Sangram Bhalerao (played by Ranveer Singh). In spite of being a cop, he is in guilty collaboration with the local criminal leader Durva Ranade (played by Sonu Sood). Subsequently, before the relative’s death because of being raped, his conscience is eventually awakened.

According to the estimates, January’s box office will be fiercely competitive due to the release of two upcoming Bollywood blockbusters including The Accidental Prime Minister and Uri: The Surgical Strike. Both of premieres are scheduled to hit the cinemas on January 11. Therefore, Simmba is expected to take full advantage of the present situation to achieve a maximum increase in the box-office receipts.
