Bachchhan Paandey Day 1 Early Estimates: A Double Digit Decent Start

Mumbai, March 18, 2022: The big Holi release Bachchhan Paandey has finally been released at the box office but the response is not like the previous Akshay Kumar starrer. Holi normally sees a very dull crowd in morning and afternoon shows but after that, it acts as a proper national holiday with a huge mass and family audience. The Day 1 early estimates for Bachchan Pandey are looking around 12 Cr India net. The film is a mass entertainer with the face value of Akshay Kumar which proved to be a saver otherwise the opening might have been at the lower side for such a big film. Normally a big event film sees 80-90% occupancy in night shows on a national holiday but that is not the case here even with a lower screen count. The film can go towards the 13-14cr range if the mass centres improve and that will only be known tomorrow morning. If we compare to the last big Hindi film Gangubai Kathiawadi then the occupancy is slightly better but the show's count for Bachchan Pandey is very less even on 3000 screens. The advance for tomorrow is also not huge for such a big film like Bachchan Pandey and with a juggernaut called The Kashmir Files being an opponent, The film will find very tough at the box office. Note: given early estimates is using Multiplex Data: 6.91 Cr Gross from 3142 shows. About This Movie This film is directed by Farhad Samji and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. Bachchan Pandey stars Akshay Kumar, Kriti Sanon, Jacqueline Fernandez, Arshad Warsi, Pankaj Tripathi in key roles. Stay tuned.

Mumbai, March 17, 2022: On the occasion of Holi, the new movie Bachchhan Paandey will release in cinemas but it has to face The Kashmir Files wave. It can be said that this is bad luck for Bachchhan Paandey because if any other movie were released at this time that would also face similar difficulty in front of The Kashmir Files. ## The Kashmir Files is not a normal movie anymore, it is like a tsunami. Instead of Bachchan Pandey, if other big Bollywood movies like Brahmastra, Pathan, Tiger 3, Singham 3, Fighter, Laal Singh Chaddha and be it any movie, the collection of these movies too, would have been suffered in front of The Kashmir Files. ## Earlier, it was expected that Bachchhan Paandey will earn around 20-25 net on its first day but now it is getting half shows due to The Kashmir Files tsunami. With current advance booking, Bachchan Paandey may collect 10-12 cr India net on Holi but if it receives good reviews and WOM is great then it may grab a few more crores. ## As per the trend is going on, The Kashmir Files is expected to collect 19 Cr on its 8th day (Holi). ## Holi Advance Booking ## The Kashmir Files: 8.44 Cr Gross ## Bachchhan Paandey: 3.19 Cr Gross ## The Kashmir Files (Hindi) (2D) Eighth Day Advance Booking Reports (Main Regions)RegionOccupancyShowsAlmost FullFilling FastMumbai54%571179212DelhiNCR42%457130133Pune46%2243592Bengaluru41%31412290Hyderabad30%2577878Kolkata31%1642837Ahmedabad66%326134141Chennai36%811232Surat72%1698163Jaipur21%8028Chandigarh26%66312Bhopal37%3139Lucknow18%67015 ## Bachchhan Paandey (Hindi) (2D) First Day Advance Booking Reports (Main Regions)RegionOccupancyShowsAlmost FullFilling FastMumbai22%5322598DelhiNCR16%4221476Pune13%191116Bengaluru16%170528Hyderabad19%1791266Kolkata13%147117Ahmedabad23%285571Chennai33%641233Surat40%1511536Jaipur12%7202Chandigarh14%6814Bhopal7%4401Lucknow9%7303 ## About These Movie ## The Kashmir Files: ## This film is directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri and produced by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri in association with Abhishek Agarwal Arts, and Zee Studio.
