The Lion King held up strongly on Monday with a 30% drop from Friday as it collected 7.75 crore nett. The total of the film in four days is 61.75 crore nett with the week heading for a 80 crore nett plus number. The film is another big winner for Hollywood in India after Avengers - Endgame.
The Monday is the third highest ever for Hollywood in India after Endgame and Infinity War. The Monday numbers are in the same range as The Jungle Book but that film held stronger as its Friday number was less than The Lion King.
Although its hard to tell just yet but there is a good chance that the film will beat all the Hindi films this year apart from Kabir Singh, Uri - The Surgical Strike and Bharat and if this happens it will mean that two of the top five films are Hollywood releases including the first placed film Avengers - Endgame. Though its ticket pricing that helps Avengers - Endgame being top to a large extent as the footfalls of Kabir Singh far exceed the footfalls of Avengers - Endgame.
The first weekend collections of The Lion King are as follows
