Bajrangi Bhaijaan Reviews / BO Collections - Page 8

Advance booking for Salman Khan Films' Bajrangi Bhaijaan opened to a phenomenal response at multiplexes and single-screens across India, with the first weekend shows already 70 per cent booked three days prior to the film's release. In most circuits, advance booking opened this morning and since then, tickets have been selling like hot cakes. Distributors feel by tomorrow, the first week will likely be all sold out.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan, which will release in 4,000 screens all over India, is a veritable Eid treat for the actor's fans and movie-goers in general. The film, Salman Khan's first mega-venture as a producer, also features Kareena Kapoor Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, with Khan playing the title role. It is expected to turn into bumper business over the weekend.

Everyone is eagerly awaiting the release of Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Since Salman Khan and Kabir Khan have teamed up, expectations are higher than usual. I have never witnessed such a frenzy for advance booking. All-India, advance booking is 75 per cent at both multiplexes and single-screens, and in Mumbai, it is 80-per cent and growing. It is safe to say that this film will create enormous box-office records. The weekend shows are almost already booked. This film will definitely break records that were created earlier this year and has been assigned 4,000-5,000 screens all-India and over 1,500 in Mumbai.
