Two big films are releasing this week Shehzada and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Shehzada is a Bollywood biggie whereas Ant-Man is from Hollywood. In between these two, there is Pathaan which is still doing well at the box office.
Shehzada is leading the screen count battle this week as it has managed to get around 2800-2900 screens approx across India. Screening and showings are just ok and could have been better. But again there are other significant releases and if the film manages decent occupancy it can still put up a good total on the board.
Hollywood biggies Ant-Man is getting released on 2100 screens approx. With high ticket prices, Ant-Man can really score big at the ticket counters. Marvel films are giant in the Indian market and Ant-Man should also take a decent to good opening. Reports are not that good but again the film should at least do well in the first weekend.
Pathaan despite entering week four has managed to retain good 1000 screens across India. This is absolutely fantastic considering it already did record business and the majority of people already have watched the film. The film can still strike big if new releases fail to attract audiences to the theatres.
