The action-drama Salaar, starring Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran, is witnessing a constant dip in its box office collection. The film entered its second week on Friday and saw a substantial drop from its first Friday, when it opened in theatres with a collection of Rs 90.7 crore.
Salaar’s box office collection on the eighth day was Rs 9.62 crore by 9 pm, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. This brings the film’s total nett collection in India to Rs 317.62 crore. The craze around Prabhas helped the film earn Rs 110.48 crore in the Hindi-speaking belt alone, where the audience also had the option to watch Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki, which was released just a day ahead of Salaar.

Salaar has received a mixed response from film critics and audiences. The Indian Express’ film critic Shubhra Gupta wrote in her review of the movie, “Till the violence in Prabhas-Prithviraj-starrer is comic-book and ‘Games Of Thrones’-type stylised, you can find a way to rationalise it; the trouble ratchets up when it becomes more real.”
