Laal Singh Chaddha or Raksha Bandhan? Trade experts have their ... (Firstpost)

Trade guru Taran Adarsh says he is hopeful about both. “It's too early to comment on the box-office prospects of either Laal Singh Chaddha or Raksha Bandhan ...

I feel, the audiences are in for a bountiful and both the films will help getting audiences back to the cinemas for sure. The promotion of Raksha Bandhan is more aggressive than Laal Singh Chaddha. Fingers are crossed. The music is climbing the charts and audiences’ interest levels are quite high. Laal Singh Chaddha has an obvious edge in terms of scale, size and sincerity which Aamir brings to the audiences with every release of his. “It's too early to comment on the box-office prospects of either Laal Singh Chaddha or Raksha Bandhan. The advance bookings have not been too strong and the two films are dependent on word of mouth, as things stand today. The trending patterns of both films are neck-to-neck as of now. For weeks and months now, we have had so many films underperforming at the box-office. Everything is dependent on how strong the reports are when the films are released. Laal Singh Chaddha is leading at premium multiplexes, while Raksha Bandhan and Laal Singh Chaddha are neck-to-neck in terms of advance booking beyond metros.” Raksha Bandhan has an edge over Laal Singh Chaddha as it has managed to get more shows due to its length. Trade insider Atul Mohan would like both films to do well, “We would love both the films to do well at the box-office. But this week, Aamir Khan, no less, graces the box-office with his august presence (pun intended) in Laal Singh Chaddha. In addition, there is Akshay Kumar in the celebration-specific mode of Raksha Bandhan.

After a spate of box office duds coming from Bollywood, a lot is riding on the fate of Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar's Raksha Bandhan.

While Bollywood’s performance has been dismal, four successive super-hits from the South—Pushpa: The Rise Part-1, RRR, KGF: Chapter 2 and Vikram (to a much smaller extent in Hindi as Vikram: Hitlist)—have grossed more than Rs 3,000 crore worldwide, including nearly Rs 800 crore in Hindi net collections. On the other hand, Raksha Bandhan is estimated to open with Rs 9 crore on day one and may end up reporting lifetime collection of Rs 80-90 crore. We maintain that Hindi Box Office is slated to decline 22 per cent (vs pre COVID levels) in Q2FY23, as content has been below par so far and we are already the end of first half of the quarter, with no film reporting a positive surprise,” he said. His only hit during this period has been Sooryavanshi (Nov 5, 2021), which was made on a production budget of about Rs 160 crore and earned a net lifetime collection of Rs 196 crore in India and Rs 295 crore gross worldwide collections, according to Bollywood Hungama. Elara Capital’s vice president Karan Taurani says expects Laal Singh to have a stronger opening with Rs 16 crore, and a lifetime collection of Rs 150-160 crore. Seven of the top 10 grossers in this span were from the South, pegs Ormax Media data. Trade analyst Komal Nahta says they are both costly, big-banner and well-mounted films, which are coming when Bollywood is reeling under the pressure of losses. Raksha Bandhan, on the other hand, saw advance booking of 35,000 tickets sold for Day 1 at the box office with a total collection of approx. The film is produced by Zee Studios and director Aanand L. Rai at an approximate budget of over Rs 70 crore. In terms of all India sales, the film, which is an official remake of the hit Hollywood film Forrest Gump, has sold approximately 57,000 tickets for the opening day. For last few weeks, the film was facing social media backlash and boycott calls because of old statements of Aamir Khan, who has also produced the film along with Viacom18 studios. Over the next eight days, there are four holidays owing to Raksha Bandhan, a long weekend including Independence Day, followed by Janmashtami and Parsi New Year which may be partial holidays.

Opening Day Box Office Trends: Akshay Kumar2019s Raksha ... (PINKVILLA)

Here's a detailed report of how the Aanand L Rai directed Raksha Badhan with Akshay Kumar has fared at the box office on it's opening day.

The centres like Mumbai, Delhi and even Punjab recorded dismissal numbers for Raksha Bandhan, and it's important for these centres to come on board for it to put up a respectable total in the long run. Overall, it’s a slow start for Raksha Bandhan at the box office however, if the talk in its target audience is positive, the holiday season might help it make up for the loss of revenue on the first day. In the morning, it seemed like a Rs 7 crore start, but the walk-ins increased as the day passed by putting the film in the vicinity of Rs 8.00 crore on the opening day.

In fact, trade opines that the Akshay Kumar starrer could well see its opening day business in double digits. Though the film does not really offer much to youth, the family centric theme and emotional content of the film has endeared it to the theatre going family audience. The occupancy in multiplexes was below the mark and the film needs support in terms of spot booking and positive word of mouth to see it through.

Raksha Bandhan is witnessing a morning occupancy of about 15-17% but let’s wait and watch if the numbers grow over the day. But the genre remains restrictive and definitely doesn’t belong under the category of a ‘mass entertainer.’ Spot bookings for Aanand L Rai starrer are leaving Laal Singh Chaddha behind and at least that remains good news. As reported in the past days, Raksha Bandhan was way below expectations in terms of its advance bookings.

Raksha Bandhant has performed better in mass belts like UP, Bihar, MP, Gujarat than Laal Singh Chaddha, but it's a non-starter in metros.

Some within the industry were predicting an opening in the ₹16-18 crore nett range, but tracking what's currently happening and based on our talks with reputed trade sources, it looks like the Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor starrer will collect somewhere in the bracket of ₹12-13 crore nett, which is certainly too low for a film with this sort of budget and star case, when Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 opened at ₹14.11 crore nett. The only difference here is that the expectations weren't high to being with like the other film, and if the Hindi belt somewhat clicks, it could easily outperform Laal Singh Chaddha in the long run in single screens all over, depending on how long that run would actually be. The Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar starrer has seen barely a 12-15% occupancy throughout the country, which is lower than the already low expectations, sending both the trade and film industry in shock.

On the other hand, Laal Singh Chaddha is headed for a double-digit opening at the box office, but that is hardly reason to celebrate.

Raksha Bandhan Box Office Review: Not A Perfect Rakhi Gift But ... (koimoi)

Akshay Kumar isn't in his best form with two back-to-back duds like Bachchhan Paandey & Samrat Prithviraj. Will he shine with Raksha Bandhan?

As a typical Akshay Kumar film is known for its budget of 100-150 crores on average, this number looks not-so-impressive. In the case of Bachchhan Paandey, given its mass entertainer feel, it took a good start despite The Kashmir Files’ fever and Holi holiday. His films like Jolly LLB 2, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, and other light-hearted family entertainers have earned him a special place among the audience and this film made us feel that Khiladi is ready to play the game on his home ground.

Raksha Bandhan Box Office Estimate Day 1: Akshay Kumar starrer ... (Khabar Inshorts)

Akshay Kumar's Raksha Bandhan has taken a dismal start at the box office in India. According to early estimates, the movie has collected in the range of Rs.

The collections on the opening day were aided by the Raksha Bandhan Holiday, which has benefitted the Aanand L Rai directorial more than the Aamir Khan film. Even in the worst-case scenario, the Akshay Kumar film should have clocked a double-digit opening, but that hasn’t happened. In some of the mass centers like Gujarat, it was better than Laal Singh Chaddha, but at all other places across India, the film lagged behind the Aamir Khan starrer.

Raksha Bandhan movie has officially released in cinema theaters on August 11, 2022. The screen time of this comedy drama is around 1 hour 50 minutes.

One thing is true that it is a perfect family entertainer and a must watch film for brother and sisters. Its a winner film for the masses. Story: The story of this film revolves around Akshay Kumar aka Kedarnath who runs a Paanipuri stall in Chandni Chowk area of Delhi. Kedarnath has four sisters and he is in search of grooms for her sisters. The best thing about this film is that all the characters are relatable.

The first half is decent but it’s the second half which is the game changer.
