15th August 2018 would go down as a landmark day in the history of Bollywood. Though there have been quite a few clashes in the past, the majority of these have been one side. However, there have been few where both films have turned out to be successful. Still, hardly a couple of such clashes have resulted in over 30 crore coming on a single day whereas rest have all been between 20-25 crore at best. Not anymore though as both Gold and Satyameva Jayate have turned out to be ultra huge on their release, and their combined collections have resulted in an outstanding 45.77 crore coming in.
