Sultan had an unprecedented advance booking of around Rs 22-23 crore, which is the biggest so far.
- Highest Opener of 2016 : Despite the shift in Eid's date, the film amassed a whopping Rs 36.54 crore on its opening day, which is by far the highest this year. The previous best was Shah Rukh Khan's Fan which opened at around Rs 19.20 crore.
