It appears that the Shehzada must wait till the Badshah exits the theatre. Shehzada, starring Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon, has had its release date postponed by one week. The movie will now be released on February 17 in theatres. The original release date was set for February 10.

Pathaan is seeing tremendous growth in box office numbers. The film has made Rs 542 crore gross worldwide in just five days since its release on January 25.

The film hit another Rs 100 crore-plus day in its fifth day, as it registered Rs 60.75 crore nett in India (Hindi – Rs 58.50, all dubbed versions – Rs 2.25 crore), taking the India gross to 70 crore.

The overseas gross on day five is at Rs 42 crore ($5.13 million), taking the total collection on its fourth day of release to Rs. 112 crore gross. In 5 days, Pathaan has recorded $25.42 million (207.2 crore) in overseas territories alone.

Shehzada is the remake of Allu Arjun’s Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo (2020). Before it, Kartik was in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, a major hit, and Freddy, an OTT release, in 2022. He also has Satyaprem Ki Katha and Aashiqui 3 on the cards.
