Entering the tracking this week are two films slated to release during the Christmas weekend, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri and Ikkis. This is also the final forecast for Dhurandhar, releasing this coming Friday.
Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri
First Day Box Office Forecast: Rs. 7-10 crore
Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri is a rom-com starring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday in the lead. The genre has struggled for an initial post-pandemic, with some of the recent films in the genre (Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, De De Pyaar De 2, Param Sundari and so on) missing even a double-digit start, despite having a decent trailer and music. Tu Meri… hasn’t released a trailer yet, so judgment on that is pending. One song that is released doesn’t appear to be a hit.
The film has the advantage of a holiday release, though it will be facing stiff competition from Avatar 3, which will be on its seventh day.
Ikkis
First Day Box Office Forecast: Rs. 2-4 crore
The trailer for the film was impressive, but much like 120 Bahadur last week, the film is expected to be constrained by its genre appeal and will rely on positive word-of-mouth after release to gain traction.
The film holds additional emotional weight as the final screen appearance of legendary actor Dharmendra, who passed away last month. This sentiment could provide a modest boost to the film’s opening.
Other Updates:
Although the pre-sales for Dhurandhar are in line with the earlier forecasted range of Rs. 13-17 crore, there is a sense of optimism with the reception pushing the film on the final day. As such, the forecast is upped slightly to Rs. 14-18 crore.
Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 got a trailer, which has comedy in both quality and quantity. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem theatrical enough, so the box office prospects seem low, particularly for the initial. The forecast remains largely unchanged.
