Salman Khan's Sikandar is all set for the BIGGEST EVER RELEASE, surpassing the likes of Jawan and Tiger 3!
Despite Sikandar receiving mixed buzz, exhibitors have shown immense faith in it, which reflects in the massive screen count and show timings. This means the film has tremendous potential to collect big if it strikes the right chord with the audience.
Sikandar has secured a screen count of approximately 5,500-5,700 screens across India for Day 1, with allocations still ongoing. Even a decent occupancy on the first day can push the film towards strong numbers. The advance booking for the film started off as pretty average, but it has picked up pace in the final hours. Hopefully, the momentum continues in the last few hours before release.
Typically, a Salman Khan starrer is expected to open in the ₹30-40 crore net range on Day 1. However, current advance booking trends indicate an opening of around ₹20-25 crore net. That said, strong spot bookings could push the total to ₹30 crore net or more. Anything below ₹30 crore would make the opening day underwhelming.
For the first time in a long while, Salman Khan will need strong word-of-mouth and positive audience feedback to sustain at the box office. If the film receives good reports, it will be unstoppable in the coming days!
