Trade analyst Amod Mehra said that ‘Kick’ has broken the myth that films don’t do good business during Ramzaan.

“Now with Eid on Tuesday and baasi Eid on Wednesday, the film is on its way to set new records,” Mehra said.

Salman Khan’s other big Eid release in 2012 ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ still holds the record of highest collection with stunning 32.90 crore.

“‘Ek Tha Tiger’ had an edge; it had opened on August 15 which was a public holiday. ‘Kick’, on the other hand, released on a regular Friday,’’ Trade analyst Taran Adarsh said.

Earlier this year Salman’s ‘Jai Ho’ released and had collected around Rs 60 crore in its first weekend.

Distributor Rajesh Thadani told a daily that, “The film had the potential of making between Rs 250 crore to Rs 300 crore, but thanks to the mixed reactions, I can now see it touching Rs 200 crore. The film has a clear two-week run and this will work in its favour.”

Sajid Nadiadwala’s debutant directorial venture Kick starring Salman Khan,  Jacqueline Fernandez, Randeep Hooda and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the lead roles. It was released last Friday across 5,000 screens in India.
