BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN Is Set For Historic Opening
2015 saw some small budgets and off beat films doing really well and ''Tanu Weds Manu Returns'' exceeded every expectation with mind blowing 150 cr nett biz in India itself. Now the big Bollywood season starts and Salman Khan will kick this off with ''Bajrangi Bhaijaan'' on his favorite festival Eid.
Film will release in 800 screens in overseas and 4500 screens in India. Film might lose few shows to ''Bahubali'' in multiplexes especially in south. But overall film will not be affected by this as this is big ticket occasion release and audience will flock to cinemas no matter what.
As we mentioned in our prediction article, film will open to full houses and historic numbers. Advance bookings are humongous and at places it is better than ''Kick'' and ''Ek Tha Tiger''. It should easily cross 90-95 cr nett over weekend. Film has more than 55% bookings in places like Cinepark Valsad, single screens in UP, Rave Moti Kanpur, Wave Noida and Patna.
We can easily assume that 90-100 cr nett is almost secured from here over weekend and if content gets acceptance then sky is the limit for week one. All in all a sure shot mammoth Blockbuster is in store!
