Sanju collection has had a big impact on other aspects of Ranbir Kapoor's life too, seemingly. Following the success of Rajkumar Hirani's blockbuster film, the actor has reportedly hiked his endorsement fee. According to a DNA report, Ranbir Kapoor has nearly doubled his fee for brand endorsement, as his popularity among the youth is all-time high. 

The star is treading his path carefully, even as advertisers are queuing up at his doorstep. “His team is clear about what he endorses. Within the next few months, he is likely to shoot for several new commercials,” the report said citing a source. Sanju earned huge money at the box office. It made Rs 200 crore in the first week, surpassing lifetime business of 3 Idiots (202.47 crore). It earned Rs 34.75 crore on its first day of release, Rs 38.60 crore on the second day, Rs 46.71 crore on the third day, grossing total Rs 202.51 crore in 7 days. This is the biggest feat.
