There is a 57-58 crore nett difference between the all India first week collections of Padmaavat and Sanju but if we look at the territory numbers where Padmaavat had a clean release with no issues then the week one numbers are very similar..

 

 

The difference is less than 3 crore from seven circuits and in many circuits Padmaavat is actually ahead with the main difference being East Punjab but there Ranbir Kapoor is a huge star (possibly second to Salman Khan or maybe even on par now) while Ranveer Singh or Shahid Kapoor hardly have a draw. The trend for both films is very similar for week two as Padmaavat had  a 52% drop and Sanju will be similar.

 

 

Its show that the lifetime business of Padmaavat will have been similar to Sanju if the former had a clean release. Its another matter that it was external hype for Padmaavat that meant it could not have a clean release so maybe things evened out.
