Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advan's romantic drama Kabir Singh is still running successfully in theatres despite reduction in the screen count. In fact, the film's hold is so good at the box office that the release of Hrithik Roshan Super 30 also hasn't affected its business at the ticket windows. Of course, Kabir Singh is no longer earning in the two-digit range but its still going steady and is slowly inching towards the Rs 270 crore mark in India. Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the film arrived in cinema halls last month and surprisingly stormed the box office big time. Kabir Singh Box Office Collection Day 26: Shahid Kapoor Starrer Is Heading Towards Rs 270 Crore Mark, Rakes in Rs 263.19 Crore

Just a while back, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to the microblogging site Twitter and revealed the updated figures. He wrote, "#KabirSingh continues to trend very well, despite reduction in screens... [Week 4] Fri 2.54 cr, Sat 3.75 cr, Sun 4.05 cr, Mon 1.65 cr, Tue 1.60 cr, Wed 1.55 cr. Total: ₹ 264.74 cr. India biz."

Kabir Singh, which has turned out to be Shahid's biggest solo hit ever, is also currently the highest grossing film of the year. The Hindi remake of Arjun Reddy achieved this milestone in just 20 days by surpassing the lifetime collection of Vicky Kaushal's Uri - The Surgical Strike. Kabir Singh Box Office Collection Day 25: Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani's Romantic Drama Is Going Steady in Week 4, Earns Rs 261.59 Crore

Released in more than 3000 screens across India, Kabir Singh has not only been faring well in multiplexes but also in single screen theatres. While the film is set to complete a month in cinema halls, Shahid and Kiara starrer was recently in the news for all the wrong reasons. The movie was bashed by many for being misogynistic and received a lot flak on social media too. However, none of it has managed to slow down Kabir Singh at the box office.
