According to film trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Uri is trending during weekdays and he expects the film to cross the Rs 250-crore mark in coming weeks. Which means that it is all set to surpass the lifetime collection of Rohit Shetty’s blockbuster Simmba. The Ranveer Singh-starrer had earned a total of Rs 240.31 crore.

Adarsh tweeted, ''Uri The Surgical Strike is unshakable... Unaffected by new films week after week... All set to cross *lifetime biz* of #Simmba [third highest grosser of 2018]...Has an outside chance of touching ₹ 250 cr... [Week 8] Fri 38 lakhs, Sat 78 lakhs. Total: ₹ 238.52 cr. India biz''. 

The rich content of Uri, the stunning performance of the actors contributed to the success of the movie at the box office and has won the country's heart.

Vicky had earlier played roles in films like Raazi, Saare Jahaan Se Achcha, among others, but Uri is the first film in which he is playing the lead role. 

Uri: The surgical strike was released on January 11th 2019. The movie is currently running in its 8th week and is still adding money to its collection.
