Performed exceptionally well at multiplexes of metros and Tier-2 cities, while mass circuits also saw a healthy trend... Fri 11.83 cr, Sat 18.19 cr, Sun 20.74 cr. Total: ₹ 50.76 cr. India biz."
Adarsh also tweeted, "#Super30 now depends on weekdays to consolidate its status... Growth on Sat and Sun gives the film a chance at metros and Tier-2 cities specifically... #Super30 trending is far, far better than Hrithik's last two films - #MohenjoDaro and #Kaabil."

Interestingly, Super 30 has recorded the 6th highest opening weekend collection of the year as only five more films managed to surpass the Rs 50 crore mark in the first weekend. That's not all! It's also Hrithik's second biggest opening weekend after Bang Bang which had collected around Rs 62 crore in the first three days. If the Anand Kumar biopic continues to trend well on weekdays then it will definitely end week 1 on a strong note.
