The exceptional opening day business of Thugs of Hindostan is the result of advance ticket sales and hiked pricing.

Thugs Of Hindostan earned more than Rs 50 crore on the first day making it the biggest ever Bollywood release of all time, breaking the record of Shahrukh Khan's Happy New Year.

The two budget carriers have been grappling with P&W engine problems, which has even led to grounding of some A320 neo aircraft. Together, they have around 82 such planes in their respective fleet.

There have been enough pointers since the Budget announcements in February to show that the government's finances are perhaps not in a great shape.

With Thugs of Hindostan scheduled to be released on November 8, industry experts believe that the next Yash Raj Films offering could earn up to Rs 50 crore on its opening day.

The government believes that the RBI is one of the most highly capitalised central banks in the world and its reserves are excessive compared to global benchmarks.

The carrier has narrowed its losses and seen average fares rise this year as customers take to its product offering, including a domestic premium economy class.
