Bajrangi Bhaijaan was released on more than 4500 screens nationwide and received an opening of something between 80 and 90% (the exact data about that is not available now) and managed to go for big numbers on the very first day of release, which was also the last day of Ramadan and most of the Muslims who were observing fasts in this period could not go and watch the movie as it is not acceptable for a person observing fasts in the period of Ramadan to enjoy theater.
