Uri: The Surgical Strike Box Office: Vicky Kaushal Film Earns Rs 226. 05 cr Despite The Gully Boy Wave

Here's the latest Box Office update of Uri: The Surgical Strike

Actor Vicky Kaushal starrer Uri: The Surgical Strike has reached Rs 226.05 crore at the Box Office. The film has maintained its steady pace despite the release of Gully Boy, which has a tremendous buzz around it. The Aditya Dhar-directorial managed to garner Rs 6.92 crore so far in its week six. Crossing the benchmark of Rs 225 cr at the Box Office is a big feat for a medium-budget Hindi film considering it released on January 11, 38 days back.

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter to share the breakup of the Box Office collection of this all-time blockbuster film. He wrote, “#UriTheSurgicalStrike continues to win hearts… Crosses ₹ 225 cr… Stays super-strong, despite #GullyBoy juggernaut at metros + reduced showcasing at plexes… [Week 6] Fri 1.20 cr, Sat 2.51 cr, Sun 3.21 cr. Total: ₹ 226.04 cr. India biz.” (sic)
