The Kerala Story released last Friday and proved to be a surprise blockbuster with amazing opening of 8 cr nett and 80 cr nett in week one. Film is a rage in north and west India with tax free status boosting it further. On the other hand, Vidyut Jammwal starrer espionage thriller IB 71 is releasing tomorrow which is not carrying any buzz.
Advance Booking Numbers Of IB 71 And The Kerala Story In National Chains For 12th May
IB 71 will sell approx 4000 – 4500 tickets for Friday by today midnight which is a very poor number and even good spot bookings can not take it beyond maximum 2.5-3 cr nett number for day one.
Following are the advance bookings numbers in national chains for IB 71 for tomorrow day one Friday 12th May:
PVR + INOX + Cinepolis : 4,000 – 4,500 tickets
Following are the advance bookings numbers in national chains for The Kerala Story for day 8 2nd Friday 12th May:
PVR + INOX + Cinepolis : 36,000 – 40,000 tickets
So in short, The Kerala Story has sold 10 times more tickets for 2nd Friday than first day advances of IB 71.
The Kerala Story will collect in double digit on 2nd Friday and then it will cross 100 cr nett on 2nd Saturday. It should cross 140 cr nett in 2nd week and 175 cr nett is there for taking. More than that lifetime total depends on how film fares post release of Hollywood biggie Fast X.
