Hrithik Roshan-Katrina Kaif starrer Bang Bang is off to a big start. Shahid Kapoor-Shraddha Kapoor starrer Haider too has done great business. The film has broken a record set by Salman Khan’s Kick of the highest first day opening collections. Later on Ajay Devgn’s Singham Returns had also broken Salman’s Kick record but it was unable to hold it on and thus couldn’t beat Salman’s film in the overall collections bid.
Grapevine has it that Bang Bang grossed almost 27 crores on the opening day. Salman Khan’s Kick grossed about 26.30 crore on its opening day. However, the official statement is yet to come, it is pretty much evident that Salman’s record has been thrashed by Hrithik.
Kick, released on a non-holiday weekend and was happy to have no releases for the next two weeks, however, Bang Bang released on a holiday weekend but has got tough competition from Shahid Kapoor’s Haider, which is also doing great business alongside. Haider is also getting some great appreciations from the critics and that is making it even tougher for Hrithik’s Bang Bang.
Bang Bang has got mixed reviews from both audience as well as critics. But because of the humongous publicity of the movie it has had a great opening. However, Shahid’s Haider too has opened up to great viewership and it is assumed that it will grow even more by word of mouth. So for either films to break Kick‘s record they have to really impress the audiences, lest they will just die out in the gamut of films.
