Box Office Predictions: Two films release this Friday – Stree and Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se. Even though both films have humour as their base, they actually belong to different genres.
Stree has horror as the core element running through it whereas Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se is a madcap affair.
Let’s talk about Stree first. The film’s promo made a good impression and the producers (Dinesh Vijan, Raj & DK) took an unabashed approach to introduce what it stands for to the audiences. There has been a holds no bar stand taken in the mini promos that followed which have an out and out quirky touch to them. Moreover the film’s music has done well too. Catering primarily to youth, this Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor starrer is a safe affair since its 20 crore budget (including P & A) has already been recovered by the makers through sale of music, digital and satellite rights. Hence theatrical revenue would be an added bonus. It would be a decent enough start for the film if an opening number of 3-4 crores comes in.
