Budget vs Box Office Collection
Rohit Shetty has managed to bring together the most renowned faces from Bollywood. And, of course, it comes with a huge price. Singham Again is reportedly made on a decent budget of 250 crores. This means, the film has recovered around 50% of its estimated cost in opening weekend alone.
Although it has reached halfway, Singham Again is yet to cross the other half. The debut weekend was known to be huge, given the curiosity around the Avengers of the Cop universe. The real test begins today and it is to be seen whether Ajay Devgn starrer will hold its fort amid the mixed reviews.
Monday target!
Singham Again will at least need 12 crores or more to ensure a long run in theatres. If it falls below that mark, the mid-week will further impact the box office collection, impacting its overall buzz. The Diwali holiday is over, so the large number of spot bookings will also witness a dip. All in all, the first week will crucially define the lifetime prediction of this biggie!
