Jawan and Pathaan have done these numbers without having paid previews and fan benefit shows, which other films in the list from the south had.
The first to enter the Rs 100 crore worldwide club was Bahubali 2, which scored Rs 201 crore on the opening day back in 2017, and till date holds the top spot for biggest opening of all time. The second biggest is RRR at Rs 190 crore followed by KGF 2 at Rs 162 crore.
