With the latest offering, director Rajkumar Hirani has once again proved his mettle as a master story teller. The movei has also given amazing comeback sort to Ranbir Kapoor, who had not seen much of success at the box office. With Sanju, the actor has hit the bullseye and got the smashing hit that he was looking for, post Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
Though Sanju has becomes the top opening weekend grosser of all time for a Bollywood film, it missed the chance of beating Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (Hindi), which made Rs 128 crore in its opening weekend. But it wasn't a Bollywood film. Not just the opening weekend, Sanju has also created a record of earning highest single day collection all time, beating Baahubali 2: The Conclusion as well.
While Baahubali 2: The Conclusion held the record previously as it had made Rs 46.50 crore, Sanju has recorded Rs 46.71 crore. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted the figures of Sanju, he wrote, "#Sanju sets the BO on ... Gets #JaaduKiJhappi from the audience... Collects ₹ 46.71 cr on Sun, MIND-BOGGLING... Has an EXCEPTIONAL ₹ cr+ opng weekend... Emerges HIGHEST OPENING WEEKEND of 2018... Fri 34.75 cr, Sat 38.60 cr, Sun 46.71 cr. Total: ₹ 120.06 cr. India biz."

While #Sanju has crossed the *3-day opening weekend biz* of #Race3 by a distance, it has also crossed the *extended weekend biz* of #Padmaavat by a margin... That’s not all, #Sanju has also surpassed the *3-day opening weekend biz* of #TigerZindaHai [₹ 114.93 cr]... AWESOME!

Hirani’s Sanju is a tale of a persecuted boy who just needed an excuse to blow up his life. The man shown in the movie is always running scared of his disciplinarian, Gandhian dad, of losing his mother to a terminal illness, of the toxic climate that the Babri Masjid blasts brought, of just about everything. For those who don’t know Dutt, this movie works as the story of a wayward child who puts his father through hell without realising it. It shows you the callous side of a spoilt brat who indulged his excesses. It’s a tale of repentance and is in equal measure a story of valour and strength. All battles are not fought at the border; some need to overcome their inner demons on a daily basis to emerge victorious.
