As per reports, Jaat has amassed a solid 7.9 million views in just two weeks. This is a combination of 4.1 million in Week 1 and 3.8 million in Week 2.
What's more impressive is the film's global reach that has brought in more business! Yes, Jaan is trending at #1 in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Malaysia. The film, which also stars Randeep Hooda in a crucial role, has secured the top 10 position in 23 other countries including Indonesia, Qatar, Singapore, and Bahrain.
According to Netflix's official data from June 9 to June 15, the film logged 9.5 million viewing hours in its second week alone. It has ranked fifth in Netflix's global top 10 non-English films.
This performance has pushed Sikandar and Diplomat one spot down on the platform's most viewed list. However, the top three still remain Jewel Thief (18.2M), Dhoom Dhaam (12.4M), and Deva (8.7M).

The fact that Jaat has received such a positive response proves that massy content and strong regional appeal works amazingly for films even now. This does not even require any big names to be associated with the film, as was the case with Jaat.
Salman Khan's Sikandar, despite having a renowned star cast and hyped promotions, could not win the hearts of the audience. Alternatively, Jaat, with its earthy humour, rooted storytelling, and high-octane action, struck the right chord with viewers across demographics.
