1.After beating Race 3 on first day, can Ranveer Singh manage to cross weekend collections of 106 crore?
As per Box Office India, 'Simmba' registered an average occupancy of up to 35% in the morning shows. Akshay Kumar-Rajinikanth’s ‘2.0’, Tiger Shroff's 'Baaghi 2', Ranbir Kapoor's 'Sanju' and Ranveer’s own previous blockbuster ‘Padmaavat’ recorded better occupancies on Friday than Rohit Shetty's masala-entertainer 'Simmba'. 'Baaghi 2' had opened to 57.5% occupancy in the morning shows while 'Sanju' began with 55% occupancy. ‘2.0’ on the other hand comes closest since it opened to 37.5% occupancy. However despite all of this, Ranveer recorded an even higher opening than Salman Khan’s ‘Race 3’!
After collecting 44.05 crore over Friday and Saturday, it remains to be seen if Ranveer can even beat Salman Khan’s Race 3 collections of 106.47 crore after Sunday.
2.Rohit Shetty, Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar coming together has proven to be a BLOCKBUSTER
'Simmba' showcases the story of a police officer Sangram Bhalerao aka Simmba, who is inspired by Bajirao Singham. Apart from Ajay Devgn in a cameo appearance, the movie stars Sara Ali Khan, Sonu Sood and Siddharth Jadhav in pivotal roles. It also has a cameo by another superstar who has already played a police officer previously.
Considering the film is made in 125 crores and it has already recovered 25% of its making cost in day 1 and collecting 23.33 crore on Saturday, it should be a cakewalk for Rohit Shetty, Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar to earn their profits over the weekend, ‘Zero’s not-so-successful run only giving ‘Simmba’ a boost.
3.Will ‘Simmba’ break more records in coming days?
There isn’t much doubt that ‘Simmba’ is going to roar out loud at the Box Office and their grip went steady on day 2, which is expected to grow even further, if business analyst Taran Adarsh is to be believed.
“#Simmba roars on Day 2... While Mumbai circuit is exceptional, the other circuits that were slightly low on Day 1 have also picked up... Growth on Day 2 [vis-à-vis Day 1]: 12.60%... Expected to score big numbers today... Fri 20.72 cr, Sat 23.33 cr. Total: 44.05 cr. India biz.,” he wrote.
Interestingly ‘Simmba’ is Ranveer’s own highest opening film till date, and it is only growing, with ‘Zero’ having very little scope to survive.
4.'Simmba' will witness a pump in footfall on Monday
Despite releasing on a usual Friday, ‘Simmba’ managed to earn great success on day 1 and day 2, which is only going to get bigger on Sunday, and luckily for the film, it may see a pump in footfall on Monday because of the New Year holiday. The positive word-of-mouth around ‘Simmba’ also plays a major role in making ‘Simmba’ one of the highest grossers of 2018, maybe even breaking ‘Padmaavat’ record of overall collection all over again, and probably even coming close, if not overcoming Ranbir Kapoor’s ‘Sanju’s collection business.
5.While ‘Zero’ may walk out of theatres because of ‘Simmba’, will it be able to surpass ‘KGF’ collections?
After bringing 25% of the making budget back on day 1 and more on day 2, and having the potential to recollect all profits within three more days, ‘Simmba’ is definitely a strong contender at the Box Office.
Aanand L Rai's 'Zero' starring Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma is termed as a flop considering the high cost of making an no recovery of the same.
But what is really competing with ‘Simmba’ is superstar Yash’s ‘KGF’, which has crossed the 150 crore mark. Can ‘Simmba’ also manage that in its lifetime collections?
