<p>Trade analyst Komal Nahta confirmed on Twitter that the &#39;Bajrangi Bhaijaan&#39; star will refund approx Rs 35 crore today to distributors and exhibitors as compensation for losses suffered in &#39;Tubelight&#39;.

<p>The movie was an Eid release for Salman Khan and had opened to a decent&nbsp;Rs. 21.15 crore but it managed to&nbsp;gross only Rs. 64.77 crores in its first weekend. In fact, in the first ten days of its release, the movie could rake up a little over Rs. 100 crore (which is quite low keeping his previous releases in mind).

<p>Tubelight&nbsp;is a 2017 Indian Hindi period war drama film written and directed by Kabir Khan. The film is produced by Salman Khan and Kabir Khan. The movie is set in the background of 1962 Sino-Indian War and stars&nbsp;Salman Khan, Sohail Khan, Zhu Zhu, Matin Rey Tangu and Om Puri.&nbsp;Shah Rukh Khan appears in a cameo in the film.</p>
