The remake of a south Indian hit has opened in the UK Top 10 chart, grossing more than £1.3m in the overseas circuit.
Pranab Kapadia from Eros International commented: "We have been expecting Ready to be a winner, and it has stuck to its expectations.
"It's looking like it will be a huge hit. The buzz and the word-of-mouth are very strong. Salman's fans are in for a big treat."
The film marks Khan's third successive box office success following last year's Dabangg and Wanted.
Khan recently indicated that he would donate a proportion of his earnings to low-paid film industry workers in Bollywood.
