Simmba is looking set for a strong opening as it has good advance booking especially in Mumbai and Central India markets. If we compare with Zero then the advance overall is much less but that is a Shahrukh Khan starrer and this is Ranveer Singh so there is a big difference there.
Also the on the day crowd is much higher as a percentage for a film like Simmba than Zero as its a mass film. The last Rohit Shetty film Golmaal Again had no advance but still put 30 crore nett but it was a holiday. The advance only opened on Tuesday and it has solid results.
It will be known how far it goes it goes in the evening but no doubt it will be good. Baaghi 2 got an advance of 10 crore nett and this film started late so it might fall short of that figure but could get close which would be very good for Simmba. If the multiplexes of Delhi and East Punjab can do just do just good to decent business then the year will end on a good note as these are the likely weak areas for the film. The advances are a good in Maharashtra, Gujarat and CPCI and these areas will support the film to cover shortfalls from the North if film has merits.
