Who will become the king of the box office?
The beginning of the month of July was nothing special at the Indian box office. Kalki 2898 AD is performing well. But it was released in late June. So it will be added in June itself.
Only one good movie has released in July so far and that is Kill. Even this did not earn much. In the first 6 days, it has collected only 10 crore rupees. That means the month of July now depends on the upcoming films. And that too no big films are coming.
There is less hope from Sarfira
Two films are coming on 12th July. The first is Akshay Kumar’s ‘Sarafira’. No special expectations from this movie. Akshay Kumar is also not paying much attention to this matter. He didn’t promote it at all. Because the film has no particular buzz. Marketing is also not happening in such a situation. Akshay has also been giving flop films continuously for some time now. So, there is little hope of the film doing well at the box office. Nothing can be said if a miracle happens.
Indian 2 has a strong atmosphere
One is not the atmosphere of ‘Sarfira’. Moreover, it is releasing before an all-India film like ‘Indian 2’. The film has a terrible atmosphere. Kamal Haasan and S Shankar have promoted it very vigorously. Not only will it earn in Tamil and other South Indian languages, it will also do good business in Hindi. Till the time of writing, the film has collected Rs 7 crore on the first day of advance booking. Also, advance booking for the first weekend is Rs. 11 crores. So one can fully expect from this movie.
Deadpool and Wolverine
Apart from these two films, no major Indian film is releasing at the box office. Hollywood movie Deadpool and Wolverine will definitely release on July 26. Deadpool has his own legacy. Also, Hugh Jackman’s fan following is strong in India. In such a situation, it can be hoped that the film can do a business of around Rs 100 crore at the Indian box office.
According to the story described above, the month of July is supposed to be very cold. There will be no special income. If ‘Sarafira’ does something amazing, it’s a different matter. But it looks like this will be a different thing.
