Bhaiyya Ji: Box Office Growth Disappoints
Apoorv Singh Karki's Bhaiyya Ji, starring Manoj Bajpayee, experienced a moderate surge in its second day, grossing Rs 1.90 crores nett, representing a rise of about 35 percent. Despite this uptick, the film's two-day total stands at Rs 3.30 crores nett and is projected to conclude the weekend with collections hovering between Rs 5.25 and Rs 5.50 crores.
The lukewarm collections, while not as dire as feared, raise concerns about the film's ability to sustain momentum in the long-term. A stronger surge on Saturday was crucial for Bhaiyya Ji to make an impact at the box office. Its limited growth suggests that the movie may struggle to hold its own during the weekdays.
Projections indicate that the film will likely gross approximately Rs 10 crores throughout its theatrical run, potentially matching the earnings of Crakk, a higher-budget action flick.
Despite its middling performance, Bhaiyya Ji currently ranks as the second most popular Hindi film in its first weekend, trailing Srikanth which is in its third weekend.
Srikanth's exceptionally strong showing serves as a reminder that films may succeed by prioritizing solid content rather than solely targeting mass appeal.
