Hello, lovely Bollywood buffs! It’s your favorite Bollywood Newshound Nisha here, ready to spill some spicy tea on the latest box office clash between two titanic stars! Brace yourselves for some sarcastic scoops and cheeky commentary!
Sarfira Vs Indian 2 Box Office Collection Day 1:
Oh, Bollywood! How you love a good old-fashioned duel at the box office. This Friday, our beloved Akshay Kumar, in his latest flick ‘Sarfira,’ faced off against Kamal Haasan’s much-anticipated sequel, ‘Indian 2.’ While Akshay tried to bring his A-game, Kamal’s nostalgia trip had its own fanbase in a tizzy. And let’s not forget, they both had to deal with the already roaring ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ starring Prabhas. So, who won the battle on Day 1? Let’s dive in!
‘Sarfira’ Box Office Day 1 Collection:
Poor Akshay, our ‘Khiladi Kumar,’ has been desperately searching for a hit lately. His earlier 350-crore extravaganza ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ turned out to be a dud. So, naturally, all eyes were on ‘Sarfira.’ Akshay left no stone unturned in promoting it, but alas, the audience’s response was colder than a polar bear’s toenail. Here’s how it fared on Day 1:
- According to early estimates by Sacnilk, ‘Sarfira’ managed to rake in a meager ₹2.40 crores.
- These are early numbers, so let’s not lose all hope just yet – official figures might bring a tiny bit of solace.
‘Indian 2’ Box Office Day 1 Collection:
Kamal Haasan’s ‘Indian 2’ also hit theaters today, and boy, was there a buzz! Being the sequel to his 1996 hit ‘Indian,’ expectations were sky-high. And, drumroll please, the film didn’t disappoint in pre-sales, amassing around ₹10.98 crores, making it the biggest Tamil opener of 2024! So, how did it do on the actual Day 1?
- Early trends suggest that ‘Indian 2’ collected a whopping ₹26 crores.
- Out of this, ₹17 crores came from Tamil Nadu alone.
- Hindi markets, as expected, weren’t too kind, contributing just ₹1.1 crores.
- Telugu fans chipped in with ₹7.9 crores.
Will ‘Sarfira’ and ‘Indian 2’ Pick Up Over the Weekend?
A dismal start for Akshay’s ‘Sarfira,’ which was supposed to be his comeback vehicle, but looks like it’s running out of fuel. On the other hand, Kamal’s ‘Indian 2’ has given ‘Sarfira’ a run for its money but still didn’t quite meet the colossal expectations. Oh, and let’s not forget Prabhas’ ‘Kalki 2898 AD,’ which is still going strong in its third week. Both Akshay and Kamal have their fingers crossed for a weekend miracle.
Nisha’s Nutshell:
And there you have it, folks! In the glitzy world of Bollywood, one day you’re a hero, the next day, you’re… well, let’s just say, not so much. 🎬✨
Moral of the Story: In Bollywood, it’s not just about how you start but how many remakes, sequels, and item numbers you can squeeze in before the weekend!
