Sultan is flirting with an all time record on day one. The picture looked pretty clear in the morning with a record looking almost certain on the advance and morning collections. It was looking ro race past the 39 crore nett plus of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo but though it is a national holiday, Eid is eventually going to be tomorrow which has meant a Pre - Eid trend for the film in Muslim centres.
These centres started bumper as the Salman Khan fans came first day first show but the 3pm and 6pm shows were lower being the final day of Ramazan. If it was not for this the film would have set crazy records but this will bring it down more towards the 40 crore nett range. Its going to be a very tight call with the first day of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, it could beat but also short a little due to the muslin centres in Gujarat, Nizam, CP Berar, UP etc.
