Hrithik's 'Fighter': Turbulent Take off?

Sindujaa D N
'Fighter' is an upcoming aerial action drama directed by Bollywood's siddharth anand, renowned for his work in war movies, featuring hrithik roshan as the lead. Known for their previous blockbusters like 'Bang Bang' and 'War,' this collaboration marks a hat-trick for siddharth anand and Hrithik Roshan. The film stars deepika padukone as the female lead and features senior actor anil kapoor in a pivotal role.

Despite the anticipation and the Republic Day release scheduled for january 25, the promotional content, including the recent trailer, has not garnered the expected response from the audience. Released on a Thursday, a day before the Republic Day weekend, the filmmakers aimed to capitalize on the holiday and subsequent weekend for robust collections.


However, trade sources suggest that advance bookings for 'Fighter' are currently dull, contrary to the team's predictions. With a substantial budget exceeding 200 crores, the film data-faces challenges in achieving the anticipated massive opening at the box office. While the siddharth Anand-Hrithik roshan duo's previous film 'War' set a record with over 50 crore net collections on day one, expectations for 'Fighter' are tempered, with predictions hovering around the 30 crore nett mark on the first day. The film's performance beyond the initial day will likely depend on audience feedback and positive word of mouth.
