Prabhas’ Salaar is gearing up for a December 22nd release and shows promise for a massive opening, even with the competition from Dunki.
We’re now in the final stretch of the countdown, merely 8 days away from experiencing the explosive release of Salaar on the grand theater screens.
Starring Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran, this film falls under the action genre, a category thriving in the post-COVID era.
The buzz surrounding the film is palpable, heightening expectations for a significant opening at the Indian box office on its first day. Stay tuned for further details!
Is Prashanth Neel going to give Prabhas a much-needed comeback?
In just 10 years as a director, Prashanth Neel has delivered a mere three films, yet his name has evolved into a brand, largely owing to the immense popularity of the KGF franchise. His previous directorial venture, KGF Chapter 2, shattered numerous records upon its release, amassing over 1000 crores in global box office earnings.
Specializing in the action drama genre, Neel is anticipated to bring much-needed success to Prabhas. Despite Prabhas’s post-Baahubali films falling short of expectations, with both Radhe Shyam and Adipurush being box office disappointments, fans remain hopeful for Neel to work his magic once again.
Neel’s exceptional portrayal of Yash in KGF has set high expectations for his projection of Prabhas on the big screen, creating intrigue among audiences.
Salaar is set for a huge start at the Indian box office
On its slated release date of December 22nd, Salaar is anticipated to make a resounding impact with its day 1 box office collection.
Undoubtedly, its performance might be affected in the Hindi-speaking regions due to the simultaneous release of Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki. However, in the Southern states, Prashanth Neel’s directorial is predicted to dominate.
Being an event film, Salaar is reportedly set for a blockbuster pricing strategy. Anticipated to garner significant numbers in mass centers, including the Hindi belt, and generate immense excitement in the Telugu-speaking states, the movie is expected to perform exceptionally well in Karnataka as well.
This might potentially result in an opening day collection of 70 crores or more, providing this Prabhas-starrer with an opportunity to challenge Jawan’s day 1 collection.
Here’s a glimpse at the top 10 Indian openers of 2023:
- Adipurush – 89 crores
- Jawan – 75 crores
