Sunny Deol led Batwara 1947 has arrived at the box office, but in a tense scenario. It has opened to favorable reviews, but there’s major competition from Awarapan 2. Unfortunately, Rajkumar Santoshi’s directorial witnessed a lukewarm response in morning occupancy on day 1. Scroll below for the update!
Batwara 1947 Box Office Day 1 Morning Occupancy
According to the latest update, Batwara 1947 registered a morning occupancy of 7.54% on day 1. The show count is on par with Awarapan 2, but since it is a word-of-mouth-dependent affair, the start was expected to be slow. However, one definitely expected better from a film starring superstar Sunny Deol.
However, as the reactions are positive, one expects the footfalls to improve during the evening and night shows. The period drama will definitely have to put forth a strong battle against Emraan Hashmi’s film to drive footfalls during the Independence Day weekend.
