Box Office Report: Raj Mehta’s family entertainer Jag Jug Jio has been doing well at the box office ever since its release. However, its growth has slowed down due to the arrival of two new films. Yes, we are talking about new releases- Thor Love and Thunder and Khuda Hafiz 2. The film still hasn’t collected Rs 100 crore and with two projects now, there is less chance that the same will happen. After two days, the Vidyut Jammwal starrer action-thriller is expected to earn ₹3.35 crore in India. Meanwhile, the business of Hollywood releases will go back to the net of 18.50 crores on the first day. Talking about Varun Dhawan, Kiara Advani, Neetu and Anil Kapoorof film, it can earn up to 1 crore range.
Talking about Jug Jug Geo, a BOI report said, “There was a big drop on Friday so it looked like the first day would be the highest but now with almost a day on Saturday it is possible.” I think Sunday will be the best day. There is also Eid on Sunday for the film which should make it a little better than the normal Sunday.”
Further, it said, “The collection of the film will be around 48 crores and if the film benefits from Eid and gets some decent growth on Sunday then it may net around 70 crores. The film is expected to be a comfortable hit. Looks like it. At the box office in India.”
Meanwhile, trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, “#JugJuggJeeyo is rock-steady despite two new films showing lackluster performance…but growth is expected [third] Saturn and Sun… [Week 3] Venus 92 lakhs. Total: ₹ 74.63 crore. #IndiaBiz.”
Coming to Thor Love & Thunder, it’s back on track as it shows huge growth on Saturday which could be around 55-60% depending on the final numbers. The Saturday business of the film will go back to the limit. The first day’s which was a net of 18.50 crores.”
Ramesh Bala shared the collection and wrote, “#ThorLoveAndThunderIndia Box Office: Gross: Thursday – $3 million Friday – $1.8 million total – $4.8 million.”
Not one but two Thors appeared in the film, as actor Natalie Portman would play the mighty Thor in the film alongside Hemsworth for the first time. The film also stars Christian Bale, Tessa Thompson and Chris Pratt in lead roles.
Coming back to Khuda Hafiz: Chapter II – Agni Pariksha, it stars Vidyut Jammwal, Shivlika Oberoi, Sheeba Chadha, Dibyendu Bhattacharya and Rajesh Tailang. It is directed by Farooq Kabir.
