Other films like Penalty and Wig Boss also released yesterday. Their collections are too low to report. 

The keenly awaited Hollywood animation film The Lion King opened to an impressive Rs10.75 crore yesterday in India. Due to the strong buzz of the film, it is expected to have a good growth in the weekend.

The Lion King has acquired the sixth spot in the list of top Hollywood openers in India. The position was previously held by The Jungle Book (2016), which had opened to Rs10.12 crore. 

Meanwhile, the Hrithik Roshan-starrer Super 30 amassed a good number of Rs4.25 crore on its second Friday. The film has now reached a total of Rs79.75 crore and is on course to becoming a success. 

Despite the release of Super 30 and The Lion King, Shahid Kapoor's holdover film Kabir Singh managed to earn a good Rs1 crore on its fifth Friday. The films overall total now stands at an incredible Rs265.18 crore. The film is the highest grosser of 2019 so far.
