Fighter’ advance booking day 2: Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone starrer pockets Rs 6 crore for Republic Day | Hindi Movie News

Siddharth Anand‘s ‘Fighter’, featuring Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor, stands as the first major action film of 2024. Anticipation runs high given Anand’s previous successes with ‘War’ and ‘Pathaan‘. Despite a power packed cast and a hitmaker director, the buzz for the film looks slow, even for the Republic day holiday in India.

Over the years, the Republic Day holiday has been one of the most important days in the movie calendar, in fact Siddharth Anand’s last film ‘Pathaan’, starring Shah Rukh Khan, also released on 25th.It reportedly minted about Rs 70.5 crore on Republic Day and there are similar expectations from ‘Fighter’.
But it doesn’t seem anywhere close to that amount. As per industry tracker Sacnilk, as on January 25, ‘Fighter’ has managed to sell only about 1.8 lakh tickets, collecting Rs 6 crore in advance booking for day two. The 3D version contributed the majority amount to the overall collection. The future of the film will mostly depend on word of mouth publicity and how it performs on Thursday.
