Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan's sports drama "Dangal" has minted Rs 197.53 crore at the box office in its opening week, inching close to the Rs 200 crore mark. It has surpassed what Salman Khan-starrer "Sultan", 2016's highest grosser, collected in its first week.
"Sultan", which reportedly registered a Rs 300-crore collection in India, had made Rs 180.36 crore in the first week. "Dangal", which released on December 23, collected Rs 20.29 crore on Thursday and is now expected to cross the Rs 200-crore mark.
