Tiger Zinda Hai Takes Huge Box office Opening/ Tiger Zinda Hai Box Office Report/Review

Huge Opening For Tiger Zinda Hai:

This week’s big release Tiger Zinda Hai is certainly one of the most anticipated releases of the year. Starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif in the title roles as Tiger and Zoya the film which has been directed by Ali Abbas Zafar has been surrounded with immense hype right since it commenced shooting. Given this it is a no brainer to say that the film is expected to open on a high note.

Tiger Zinda Hai has taken a huge opening across India which is a rarity for a film releasing on a non holiday. The morning collections are far greater than last years Christmas release Dangal which was released exactly one year ago in the same week. The best opening has come in North India which at places in UP saw full houses and collections on par with Bahubali - The Conclusion which has best opening ever in terms of volume of collections. The film already had pocketed around 12 crore nett for the first day (23.50 crore nett in total) in advances and by noon the film had added another 5 crore nett. 

Reports coming in reinforce the theory of a good opening with occupancy rate during morning shows being pegged at 80%. If that wasn’t all, reports also claim that the Yash Raj Films production Tiger Zinda Hai has brought back the houseful board in certain multiplexes and single screens across the country. Coupled with the immense hype surrounding the action entertainer, the makers of the film opened advance booking for the film on Sunday almost a whole week before its release, a move that was welcomed by the audience and cinema owners alike. In fact, thanks to this various multiplex owners have gone on record claiming that the film has seen a thunderous response to ticket booking even before its release.

Overseas Follows India - GULF Huge For Tiger

Tiger Zinda Hai has taken a huge opening in India and Overseas is looking strong also as Gulf collected a huge $900,000 on the first day and this is without Kuwait where the film is banned. This would have cost the film around $150,000 - $200,000 in the Gulf market. Gulf has a Thursday release and the rest of Overseas will see the film opening today.

If we allow for the Kuwait figures then this film would be on record pace in Gulf matching Sultan which was the biggest opening in Gulf but that was on Eid which makes a huge difference in this market. So to get the record Eid holiday Sultan figures pre Xmas is phenomenal

On the whole, Tiger Zinda Hai that has received positive feedback from the overseas markets and sees literally no competition from other releases is piqued to open on a massive note. In fact, considering the rate of advance bookings and the audience’s anticipation for the film, not forgetting the massive screen count of 4600 screens in India Tiger Zinda Hai is looking at an opening day collection of Rs. 35 cr+
