Sam Bahadur Box Office Collection Day 1: Vicky Kaushal Starrer Takes A Decent Start!

The year 2023 has seen a total of 9 box office clashes, out of which Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway & Zwigato, Bheed & John Wick: Chapter 4, Ponniyin Selvan – 2 (Hindi) & Bad Boy were totally irrelevant and insignificant as clashes since one film had a clear ruling over the other.

Apart from these three clashes, there were six major clashes that churned out surprising results. Have a look at the analysis.

1. Tejas & 12th Fail

The last clash before Sam Bahadur Vs Animal was Kangana Ranaut’s Tejas, fighting Vikrant Massey’s 12th Fail. Both the films opened in the same range. Ranaut’s film registered 1.25 crore, and Massey’s film registered a 1.10 crore collection on the opening day. Collectively, they brought only 2.25 crore.

However, owing to the terrific word of mouth, Kangana Ranaut’s Tejas turned into a disaster, earning only 5.15 crore, while Vikrant Massey‘s 12th Fail is a superhit with 50.68 crore and still counting!

2. Mission Raniganj & Thank You For Coming

Akshay Kumar’s heroic film went against Bhumi Pednekar’s multistarrer, and both of them were disasters. While the coal mine rescue mission inspired by a real-life story opened at only 2.80 crore, Bhumi’s adult comedy collected 1.06 crore, collectively accounting for 3.86 crore!

3. Gadar 2 & OMG 2

This year’s biggest clash with the biggest collective opening day was Sunny Deol and Akshay Kumar – Pankaj Tripathi bringing in 50.36 crore collectively as Gadar 2 opened at 40.10 crore and OMG 2 collected 10.26 crore on day 1.

4. Oppenheimer & Barbie

Worldwide, the results of the two Hollywood flicks were entirely different, but India put their trust in Christopher Nolan’s film while Margot Robbie’s commercial flick lagged. Collectively, they brought 19 crore together on the opening day, with Cillian Murphy’s film contributing 14 crore and Ryan Gosling’s drama opening at 5 crore.

5. The Kerala Story & Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3

This was not touted as a big clash, but The Kerala Story and Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3 collected 15.03 crores together on day 1. The Kerala Story turned into the biggest profit-making film of the year, opening at 8.03 crore and finishing at 238.27 crore.

6. Shehzada & Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania

While Sam Bahadur Vs Animal is the second last box office clash of the year, expectations were high for the first box office clash. Kartik Aaryan’s 2022 film after Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2’s success raised the bar, but Shehzada opened at 6.5 crore, and Paul Rudd’s superhero film opened at 8.25 crore, collectively bringing 14.75 crore.

Now, while Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal and Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur seem to have opened on a good note, both films are expected to grow and earn profits eventually in the long run. May such good box office clashes prevail!
