Why is there no new film release this week?
– Producers of big films wanted to steer clear of JAWAN in its week of release as well as the following week because it was expected to do great business. As for the producers of small films, who are actually on the lookout for a week when no big film is scheduled for release, many among them must have been wary of releasing their film in the Ganpati festival week.
Will Gadar 2 overtake the collections of Pathaan in India?
– Yes, it will, in all likelihood. PATHAAN had netted Rs. 524 crore in Hindi while the total of GADAR 2 so far is Rs. 517 crore. The latter film needs Rs. 7 crore more to equal the former.
Was it fair for exhibitors to discontinue Gadar 2 to accommodate Jawan last week in spite of Gadar 2 still yielding shares?
– But such things happen all the time, so why make an issue in the case of GADAR 2 and JAWAN only. In Gujarat, several exhibitors discontinued Gujarati film 3 EKKA to make way for JAWAN despite the fact that 3 EKKA was still going great guns at the ticket windows. As they say, everything’s fair in love, war and business!
