The third-week collection is expected to cross Rs 35 crore and then the race to Rs 200 crore mark will be on with the fourth Friday being very crucial.

The film is based on the surgical strikes carried out on September 29, 2016, by the Indian Army on terrorist launchpads across the Line of Control. The strikes were carried out in retaliation to a terrorist attack on an army camp at Uri earlier that month.
Written and directed by Aditya Dhar, 'Uri: The Surgical Strike' is bankrolled by Ronnie Screwvala. 'Uri' was announced by the producer after one year of the surgical strike in September 2017. The film also stars Paresh Rawal, Kirti Kulhari, and Mohit Raina in lead roles.
