Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif and Ali Abbas Zafar are a deadly combination, and they proved it once again with Bharat. The film, which hit the screens this Eid, has not only turned out to be the biggest opener of 2019 so far, but is raking in big moolah at the box office. After crossing the Rs 100-crore mark within four days of its release, Bharat is now galloping towards the Rs 150-crore mark.

Bharat, which stood at Rs 122.2 crore on Saturday, continued its winning streak on Sunday too. Ali Abbas Zafar's directorial venture made Rs 27.9 crore on Sunday, thus taking the total collection to Rs 150.1 crore.

Bharat, which has released in 4700 screens across the country, is going strong at single screens as well as multiplexes. Salman's film is an adaptation of Korean film An Ode To My Father, and depicts the journey of the country through the life of a common man.

REVIEW | BHARAT

After his last two Eid debacles - Tubelight and Race 3, Salman Khan seems to have redeemed himself with Bharat.

The film has got a big thumbs up from fans as well as critics. India Today reviewer Ananya Bhattacharya has called Bharat a perfect Eid blockbuster. Giving the film 3 out of 5 stars, she wrote, "Through the eyes of Bharat, we see the journey of Bharat, our country, through some of its best and worst phases. Director Ali Abbas Zafar manages to capture in 2 hours and 47 minutes the ups and downs that this man and his country wade across. The best part of Bharat the film is that it has something for everyone. It is the quintessential Big Salman Khan Film with all its trappings. Romance, comedy (and a lot of it, thanks to Sunil Grover), drama, action, emotion."

With Bharat making the most of extended weekend, it would be interesting to see how the film holds on in the coming week.
