1st November 2023, Mumbai: In the realm of Bollywood, a movie’s success is often gauged by its box office performance. Despite the outcomes of Tiger Shroff’s latest film, “Ganpath,” delving into his cinematic journey reveals a story of enduring popularity that extends beyond the fate of any single movie.
His explosive debut in ‘Heropanti,’ which raked in an impressive 6.8 crores, marked the beginning of his Bollywood journey. Subsequent films like ‘Baaghi,’ ‘Baaghi 2,’ and the action-packed ‘War’ showcased his rising stardom, consistently surpassing previous box office figures and demonstrating his ability to draw audiences to theaters.
The numbers tell the tale: ‘Baaghi 2’ more than doubled ‘Baaghi’s’ earnings, reaching a remarkable 25 crores. ‘War,’ where he shared the screen with Hrithik Roshan, stormed the box office with a staggering 53 crores, setting a new benchmark in his career. Even amidst the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, ‘Baaghi 3’ managed a commendable 17 crores during its initial run.
Despite the recent lukewarm response to ‘Ganpath’ garnering 4 crores in opening, a notable industry source said Tiger has remarkable consistency & his openings are unparalleled for the actors of his generation. These figures underscore his position as a bonafide box office draw and the poster boy for the masses. His blend of high-octane action, coupled with his dedication to pushing boundaries in dance and stunts, has carved a unique niche for him in the industry.
Tiger is set to captivate audiences with his upcoming ventures, starring alongside Akshay Kumar in “Bade Miyan Chote Miyan,” “Hero No1,” directed by Jagan Shakti , Rambo produced by Siddarth Anand and recently wrapped up some spectacular action in Hyderabad for Rohit Shetty’s “Singham Again.”
