The highly anticipated film, Adipurush, starring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan, is all set to hit the screens on June 16. Directed by Om Raut, this epic mythological saga is generating immense buzz among audiences and trade experts alike. With a wide release across more than 4000 screens in India, Adipurush is predicted to make a spectacular opening at the box office, with an estimated collection of ₹40 to ₹50 crore on its first day. Let’s delve into the details of this much-anticipated release.
According to trade experts, Adipurush has all the potential to break box office records. The film’s grand release, combined with the massive hype surrounding it, is expected to contribute to its extraordinary opening day collection. Girish Johar, a renowned film business expert, shares his prediction, stating, “The audience has shown great interest in the new and revised trailer. Adipurush is based on our legendary epic Ramayan, making it a perfect family outing. Considering these factors, I anticipate a huge opening ranging between ₹45 and 50 crore (or even more) for all languages combined.”
While the opening day numbers are projected to be impressive, the film’s performance over the weekend will be crucial in determining its overall success. Johar further explains that if Adipurush manages to meet the audience’s expectations, the collections for the second and third days could surge to ₹60 crore and ₹70 crore, respectively. Additionally, if the film strikes a chord with the overseas audience, the weekend worldwide collection for all languages combined could reach an impressive ₹150-170 crore. However, it’s important to note that these numbers are contingent on the film’s quality and its ability to resonate with the audience.
In anticipation of the film’s release, several multiplexes have increased their ticket prices, with luxury seats in Delhi’s multiplexes going up to ₹2000. While this price surge may seem significant, it can be a determining factor in the audience’s perception of value for money. Girish Johar emphasizes the importance of delivering a high-quality film that justifies the increased ticket prices.
