This Diwali, Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again is ready to explode at the box office with high expectations. The film, which features Ajay Devgn and Kareena Kapoor Khan in key roles, has already generated a lot of buzz. With a massive ensemble cast and the creation of a shared cop universe, fans are excited to see if it can become one of the top openers of 2024.
Big Stars Join Singham Again for a Grand Return
Singham Again is the third installment of the popular Singham series, which has been a hit with audiences over the years. This time, the film ups the ante by including Bollywood biggies like Ranveer Singh, Akshay Kumar, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, and Arjun Kapoor. The film will also compete directly with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, featuring Kartik Aaryan, setting up a fierce Diwali box office battle.
Rohit Shetty Looks for Redemption with Singham Again
After the disappointing performance of his last film Circus, Rohit Shetty hopes to bounce back with Singham Again. His earlier cop-universe film Sooryavanshi had performed decently, and now there are high hopes that this latest installment will deliver a blockbuster. The film’s trailer and promo have been well-received, setting the stage for an impressive opening weekend. Analysts predict that the film could earn over ₹50 crore on its first day alone.
Can Singham Again Outperform Stree 2?
The biggest question is whether Singham Again can beat Stree 2 to become one of the top three openers of 2024. So far, Kalki 2898 AD leads with a ₹93 crore opening, followed by Jr NTR’s film with ₹83 crore. Stree 2 had a strong start with ₹64.80 crore (including paid previews), placing it among the top performers of the year. While Singham Again is expected to surpass The GOAT (₹45 crore), it remains to be seen if it can cross Stree 2’s numbers.
The Importance of Word of Mouth for Diwali Releases
While the opening day numbers will play a crucial role, the real test will lie in audience reactions. With two major films clashing during Diwali, positive word of mouth could determine which movie comes out on top. As excitement builds for Singham Again, all eyes will be on how it performs at the box office and whether it can take the lead in this festive showdown.
