The movie is expected to open strong at the box office
Ajay Devgn and Rajkumar Gupta are once again coming in front of the audience with Raid 2. The film is going to release on May 1, and its impressive trailer has increased the curiosity among cinema lovers.
It has been given a U/A certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), and its duration has been fixed at 2 hours 30 minutes.
Preparing for a big screen release
The Ajay Devgn film will have an all-India release by Panorama Studios in association with PVRInox, and it plans to release on around 3700 screens. Advance booking for Raid 2 began on Sunday, and the response so far has been satisfactory.
Ticket sales boom
As of 3:30 pm on Wednesday, Raid 2 has sold 45,000 tickets across the top three national chains PVRInox and Cinepolis. The film is aiming to sell 70,000 to 80,000 tickets. Raid 2 is aiming to cross the 80,000 ticket mark, which will be equal to Shaitaan’s advance booking figure.
Holiday benefit
With some states having a holiday on Thursday (Maharashtra Day/Labour Day), bookings are expected to increase. Raid 2’s opening collection is estimated to be between Rs 12.50 crore and Rs 14.50 crore, and if the audience response is positive, it may even cross the Rs 15 crore mark.
Box office prospects
Raid 2 should aim to earn Rs 15 crore on a partial holiday, similar to Shaitaan. The film needs a positive response from the audience to be successful at the box office. The theatrical scenario is getting better day by day, and now it depends on Raid 2 to cross the Rs 100 crore mark.
Four-day weekend expectations
The four-day weekend might lead to a drop in business on Friday, but with the positive buzz, Ajay Devgn’s film might witness a good growth on Saturday and Sunday. Raid 2’s four-day weekend should be around Rs 55 crore, which is a decent result.
Raid 2’s chances of success
