BLOCKBUSTER.— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) February 8, 2019
‘Uri’ is based on India’s surgical strike inside Pakistani terror camps in 2016. This was in retaliation of Pakistani terrorists killing 19 Indian soldiers in Jammu and Kashmir’s Uri sector.
Importantly, ‘Uri: The Surgical Strike’ has shattered a record previously held by the Hindi version of SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus ‘Baahubali 2’. The film has surpassed day 23 and day 24 box office collections of the Prabhas starrer. The film ‘Uri’ was released on 11th January this year.
Handsome actor Vicky Kaushal thanked the audiences for their overwhelming response in an Instagram post. Have a look:
