**Title: Salman Khan’s ‘Sikandar’ Sets Box Office Abuzz with Record Advance Bookings**
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has once again demonstrated his unrivaled stardom with his latest film, ‘Sikandar’. The film’s advance bookings have already broken records, eclipsing the lifetime earnings of many Bollywood films post-release. Here, we’ll delve into the worldwide advance booking collection of ‘Sikandar’, and also shed light on the recent box office performances of other notable films like Vicky Kaushal’s ‘Chhava’, Mohanlal’s ‘Emperor’, ‘Robin Hood’, and John Abraham’s ‘The Diplomat’.
### ‘The Diplomat’ Continues Modest Run
John Abraham’s action-thriller ‘The Diplomat’, directed by Shivam Nair, is currently in its third week in theaters. The film, with a budget of INR 65 crore, has faced stiff competition from upcoming releases. As of its 16th day, the film managed to collect a total India net of INR 32 crore 4 lakh, with a worldwide gross of INR 43 crore 56 lakh. Despite a decent hold, ‘The Diplomat’ hasn’t made significant inroads and stands as a loss venture against its hefty budget.
### ‘Robin Hood’ Sees a Promising Start
The Telugu action-crime thriller ‘Robin Hood’, featuring Nithiin and Sreeleela, directed by Venky Kudumula, opened to positive audience feedback, which translated into solid box office numbers. Over its first two days, the film has amassed an impressive India net collection of INR 5 crore 61 lakh, with a worldwide gross hitting INR 10 crore 14 lakh. With Eid festivities around the corner, ‘Robin Hood’ is expected to see a substantial surge in collections.
### Mohanlal’s ‘Emperor’ Scores Big
Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, the Malayalam crime thriller ‘Emperor’ starring Mohanlal, has been released in multiple languages and is pushing boundaries at the box office. In just three days, it has garnered a colossal worldwide collection of INR 136 crore 81 lakh. Despite challenging conditions, ‘Emperor’ is already a superhit, well on its way to blowing past its INR 50 crore budget.
### ‘Chhava’ Proves Its Mettle
The remarkable journey of Vicky Kaushal’s ‘Chhava’ continues even after 44 days post its Valentine’s release. The film, depicting the life of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has earned an extraordinary INR 811 crore globally. Although its run may soon face reduction in screens due to the impending release of ‘Sikandar’, its landmark achievement at the box office is irreversible.
### ‘Sikandar’ Dominates Advance Bookings
‘Sikandar’, directed by A.R. Murugadoss, featuring an ensemble cast including Rashmika Mandanna and Kajal Aggarwal, is generating unparalleled excitement. With its release imminent, the film’s advance booking collections have soared to an extraordinary INR 49 crore 17 lakh globally. Unlike other films embroiled in corporate booking controversies, ‘Sikandar’s’ bookings are driven purely by fan fervor, cementing Salman Khan’s indomitable star power.
The final word awaits as ‘Sikandar’ releases soon, with industry pundits anticipating an opening that might comfortably sail past INR 70-100 crore, setting ‘Sikandar’ on the path to being the next big blockbuster.
