Avengers Endgame Box Office Collection Day 7: The Superhero Film Beats Baahubali 2 and Sultan To Record the Highest Week 1 Collection, Rakes in Rs 260.40 Crore
After becoming the highest grossing film of 2019, Endgame has now recorded the highest week 1 collection in India.
The 22nd Marvel movie, Avengers: Endgame has left behind all the big-budget Hindi films to register the highest week 1 collection of all time in India. Directed by Russo Brothers, the Hollywood biggie has accomplished one more milestone at the box office and it looks like Endgame isn't going to slow down at the ticket windows anytime soon. The film arrived in theatres on April 26 and became the biggest Hollywood opener to date in India by minting Rs 53.60 crore on day 1. Then it went on to perform brilliantly over the weekend and entered the Rs 100 crore club in just three days. Chris Hemsworth starrer continued its terrific run on weekdays as well and has now surpassed the Rs 250 crore mark in India.

In fact, Avengers: Endgame has left behind all the Hindi films to become the highest week 1 grosser of all time in India. Announcing the good news, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to the microblogging site Twitter and wrote, "#AvengersEndgame has an outstanding Week 1...

While it's obvious that Endgame will continue to get cash registers ringing at the Indian box office, week 2 will decide whether the film will reach the Rs 400 crore mark or not at the domestic box office. For now, it seems the Marvel will at least surpass the Rs 350 crore mark quite comfortably in India.
