Sooryavanshi to release in theatres tomorrow, expected to take a bumper opening at the box office 




Release of Sooryavanshi will be followed by the release of Bunty Aur Babli2 and Antim on November 19 and that of Satyameva Jayate 2 on November 25.

The makers of Sooryavanshi are releasing the film on a grand scale.  The film will release on over 4000 cinema halls across India and nearly 1500 cinema halls in oversees.

A grand release for Sooryavanshi,  coupled with the fact that cinema halls in several states across the country have been allowed to operate at 100 per cent occupancy,  is expected to result in a grand opening for the film.

Trade experts feel that Sooryavanshi is expected to earn over Rs 30 crore on its opening day if cinemas across India are able to draw audiences of 50 per cent to 60 per cent of their capacity.

They feel that with a sharp decline in the Covid-19 cases across the country and coverage of large percentage  of people with Covid-19 vaccinations , audiences are expected to throng to the cinema halls in huge numbers.

While, going by the pre covid numbers,  Sooryavanshi would have been expected to earn over Rs 40 cr on its opening day,  with the threat of Third wave still looming and with the cinemas in Maharashtra,  a major market for Hindi films,  still operating at 50 per cent occupancy,  the film is expected to earn 
Rs 30 cr on its opening day.

An action thriller Directed by Rohit Shetty,  Sooryavanshi stars Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif in the lead roles with Ranveer Singh featured in a pivotal role.

The film is also being produced by Rohit Shetty in association with Cape Of Good Films of Akshay Kumar.

Ahead of the release of the film,  it's makers unleashed a huge marketing campaign. As part of the campaign,  the stars of Sooryavanshi have been conveying to the audience that it is safe for them to watch the film on the big screen.

Infact, In a video released last month, Akshay, Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh said that after a 'brief interval' caused by the Covid-19 pandemic,  it was time to enjoy the magic of the movies on the big screen.

The marketing campaign for the film included release of its songs , including the popular songs Alla Re Alla and romantic Na Jaa, featuring Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif.

The songs of the film have been trending on the social media.

Ahead of the release of Sooryavanshi,  a special screening of the film was held for The Mumbai Police. Both  AkshayKumar and Rohit Shetty were present for the screening .

With the release of Sooryavanshi to be followed by several mega starrers and blockbusters, the film industry as well as exhibitors are hoping that it will be back to cinema halls for the audiences.

Directed by Rohit Shetty,  Sooryavanshi has witnessed several postponements over the last year and a half due to Covid.
