Vikram Vedha starring Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan released today. Film has considerable amount of pre release buzz and good reviews have helped the film to multiply the noise.
Film released in 4000 plus screens in India and 1600 plus screens overseas. It’s massive release for a film of this genre and it is because of huge cast. Film is expected to created some ripples at box office.

As we predicted, film managed to sell 65,000 tickets in national multiplex chains and 1.50 lacs tickets all over India by Thursday midnight. This was just better than Laal Singh Chaddha and 30% less than Bhool Bhullaiya 2.
Yesterday film opened to strictly average numbers with opening ranging from 20% at best places and lower at most places. Film was expected to grow from evening onwards but then growth didn’t come across the board. Problem is mass pockets did not been respond which was strange for the genre. Lack of one chartbuster song has kept the sizeable audience away.
Film collected 10.75 cr nett on day one which was strictly average day one. Film was expected to collect lot more than that considering release size and reviews.
Today again film has taken a fab start and noon onwards trend is better but still lot left to be done at box office. Film is suffering especially in east due to Navratri festivities and month end didn’t help either.
At few massy centres even P.S. 1 has witnessed better growth than Vikram Vedha. For sure it will grow today by 35-40 % and desired 40-50% growth seems possible in evening.
At the moment, 40 cr nett plus weekend looks possible though 50 cr nett seems difficult.
Day 1
10.75 cr nett
Day Two
13.50-14 cr nett
