The Hindi remake of Arjun Reddy continued the good run even in the second week by minting Rs 78.78 crore. This has been followed by an impressive third weekend where the film has earned Rs 22.52 crore. "ALL TIME BLOCKBUSTER," Adarsh added in another tweet.
The film is doing exceedingly well even in the overseas market and is now the highest grossing Indian film [2019 releases] in Australia.

Helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who also directed the original film, `Kabir Singh` tells the story of a short-tempered surgeon Kabir Singh (Shahid Kapoor) who goes on a path of self-destruction, consuming drugs and alcohol after he cannot marry the love of his life Preeti (Kiara Advani).
