'Salaar Part 1: Ceasefire' starring Rebel Star Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran stormed the silver screens worldwide yesterday. This film marks the dawn of a new action franchise from director Prashanth Neel who astonished the film industry with the 'KGF' saga earlier.

Now, the producers have officially revealed the first-day collection of 'Salaar'. According to Hombale Films, Salaar made a massive collection of Rs 178.7 crore on Day 1 worldwide to become India's biggest opening film in 2023. It dethroned Thalapathy Vijay's 'Leo' first-day gross of Rs 148 crore and became this year's record holder.

Also, Salaar is now the third-highest opening-day grosser of all time in India only behind SS Rajamouli's 'Baahubali 2' and 'RRR'. With the Christmas and New Year holidays coming, Salaar is going to be an unstoppable force at the box office in the upcoming days. The movie earned a good response from the audience and critics.
