What’s Driving the Turnaround?
Despite facing heavy showcasing cuts early in its second week, the film clawed back screen space as the week progressed, helping collections climb steadily. The second weekend is projected to land around Rs. 12-12.50 crore — more than double the first weekend and on par with the entire first week’s total.
Many in the trade are now comparing its trajectory to that of Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar, which similarly opened on a low note before gathering strength.
