On the other hand, it is a given that on festive occasions, big films are released, and this Eid is no different with the release of this film. The stakes are even higher for the film, not only because it has two leading action stars in Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, but also because of the presence of south sensation Prithviraj. This combination of best of North meeting best of South was expected to generate a tremendous buzz for the film on both sides, but one is hearing a very eerie silence from the south.
The film is releasing in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam languages and from the three, only Tamil language has gained some traction with Malayalam being the slowest one. However, trade is expecting that it will pick up pace post day 1, when (good) word of mouth travels.
In the past few months, Prithviraj has delivered some amazing box office results, be it with Salaar: Part 1- Ceasefire or Aadujeevitham- The Goat Life.
