‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’ has dropped like a nuclear bomb today at the box office. Yes, you heard it right. The ‘Prabhas’ starrer is garnering immense love and praises from the masses and masala movie lovers in the Pan-India circuit. The ‘Prashanth Neel’ directorial is also marching way ahead than its SRK-Raju Hirani’s highly anticipated competitor ‘Dunki’ which collected a decent figure of ‘Rs. 30 Crores’ Net on day-1 (yesterday).
Flaunting a star-studded cast including ‘Prithviraj Sukumaran’, ‘Shruti Haasan’ & ‘Jagapathi Babu’ the gangster saga film (Salaar) is expected to cross over the magical number of ‘Rs. 60 Crores’ Net in all languages (Telugu + Hindi + Tamil + Kannada + Malayalam) according to cinema trade website Sacnilk.com on its debut day.
However, Prashanth Neel’s last magnum opus actioner ‘K.G.F – 2’ starring megastar ‘Yash’ minted a sum of ‘Rs. 116 Crores’ Net (Telugu + Hindi + Tamil + Kannada + Malayalam) on its 1st day of release last year. Prashanth-Yash’s first collaboration ‘K.G.F – 1’ was in turn a humongous hit which evolved Yash as country wide star.
Neel’s all 3 ventures: ‘K.G.F series’ and ‘Salaar’ are vaguely based on the same gang-war fighting theme decked up with dark lights and tons of violence. Numerous film fanatics have also tagged Salaar as K.G.F -3 due to its similar storyline and precise plot. But now can one conclude that ‘Yash’ is a lot more than ‘Prabhas’ when it comes to Pan-India Stardom by correlating the calculations of both mass entertainer’s 1st day drop?
As per current statistical trends, Prashanth’s Powerful ‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’ needs a majestic boost to maintain a monstrous momentum at movie market windows to shatter the mathematics of his last Venture K.G.F -2. On the other hand the Prabhas project shall easily glide over King Khan’s Dunki silver screen numbers, concluding as the winner of Christmas weekend!
