Including the second weekend box office collection, Salman Khan starrer "Kick" has become the sixth highest grossing Bollywood film of all time in India.
The film has also surpassed lifetime dometic earnings of Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone's "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani". Salman's "Kick" has earned ₹198.11 crore in 10 days, while "Yeh Jawaani Hai" earned ₹188.57 crore in its four weeks run.

However, with small margin, the film failed to break the record of "Ek Tha Tiger" and enter the ₹200 crore club by the second weekend. Nevertheless, "Kick" will touch the ₹200 crore mark by second Monday. It will be Salman's highest grosser film ever and first film to touch the double century mark in India.

"Kick" is now aiming to beat Aamir Khan's "3 Idiots" lifetime total of ₹202.47 crore. The next target for "Kick" will be to break Shah Rukh Khan's "Chennai Express" ₹227 crore total. But it remains to be seen whether "Kick" will be able to beat that record.
This coming Friday Akshay Kumar's "Entertainment" is releasing which will take down "Kick" box office collection.
