After
a
string
of
misfires
at
the
box
office,
the
Hindi
Film
Industry
finally
has
got
a
big
reason
to
cheer
after
a
long
time.
Ayan
Mukerji’s
fantasy
adventure
Brahmastra
has
broken
the
jinx
for
Bollywood
by
getting
a
smashing
opening
on
its
first
day
of
release.
The
Ranbir
Kapoor-Alia
Bhatt
starrer
collected
in
the
range
of
Rs.
36
to
39
Crore
in
the
domestic
market
on
Day
1,
making
it
the
biggest
non-holiday
release.
Worldwide,
the
cinematic
spectacle
smashed
it
out
of
the
park
and
got
a
massive
opening
of
Rs
75
Crore
(gross).
Speaking
about
its
performance
on
Day
2
(Saturday),
early
reports
hint
that
the
magnum
opus
has
witnessed
a
big
jump
in
its
collections
and
is
likely
to
mint
Rs
40+
Crore
(nett).
Trade
analyst
Sumit
Kadel
took
to
his
Twitter
handle
and
posted,
“#Brahmastra
Saturday
Collection
is
heading
towards
HUGE
₹
40
cr
+
nett
mark…There’s
a
GROWTH
of
around
10-15
%
at
many
centers.
Its
day
Day
-2
collection
could
come
in
the
range
of
₹
40-43
cr
nett
(
All
Languages).”
Going
by
the
buzz,
the
film
is
likely
to
cross
Rs
100-Crore
mark
in
the
weekend
which
might
come
across
as
a
huge
relief
for
Bollywood
after
many
star-driven
movies
crashed
at
the
box
office
this
year.
If
the
movie
passes
with
flying
colours
on
Monday
as
well
then,
it
can
reap
the
benefits
of
a
free
run
till
Hrithik
Roshan-Saif
Ali
Khan’s
Vikram
Vedha
releases
in
theatres
on
September
30,
2022.
Made
on
a
budget
of
around
Rs
410
Crore,
Brahmastra
is
touted
to
be
the
most
expensive
film
when
it
comes
to
Hindi
cinema.
Upon
its
release,
it
received
mixed
reviews
from
the
critics
and
the
audience
but
they
unanimously
lauded
the
spectacular
visuals
in
the
film.
Besides
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Alia
Bhatt,
the
movie
also
features
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Mouni
Roy
with
Shah
Rukh
Khan
and
Nagarjuna
Akkineni
in
extended
cameos.
