Akshay Kumar & Tiger Shroff starrer Bade Miyan Chote Miyan was struggling with one average song after another followed by below par trailer. Still the film is one of the highly anticipated movies of 2024 in terms of budget.
On the other hand, Ajay Devgn starrer Maidaan seems like a content film which will be high on emotions with patriotic fervour. None of the song from the film became chartbuster but good reviews can give film legs for long run.
Disastrous Response To Eid Releases In Advance Booking
There were lot of expectations around two biggies clashing on Eid. Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff starrer BMCM touted as next big release from Bollywood though poor songs followed by average trailer meant writing on the wall.
Maidaan was delayed around 9 times and finally it’s arriving after couple of years of delay. There was no excitement around these films despite media and makers tried best to hype the films.
Situation is so drastic right now that paid critics and makers are in shock. Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has sold around 4,090 tickets for paid previews on 10th March. Maidaan is almost washout with only 1,540 tickets sold for paid preview on 10th March. At the moment, BMCM heading for under 4 crore nett start and Maidaan for 1 crore start.
To put things in perspective, Shah Rukh Khan’s Chennai Express collected 6.75 crore nett (9 crore gross) in paid previews from 7 pm onwards on Eid 2013. It seems BMCM will fail to cross that number too after 11 years!
Situation is equally bad for Eid 11th March and both the film might fail to cross even 20 – 25 crore nett combined on holiday.
