Top All Time Advances - War Third
Wednesday 02 October 2019 10.30 IST Box Office India Trade Network
War has recorded a fantastic advance which is the highest ever for an outright Hindi film. It is also the first time that a film from the Hindi film industry has collected 30 crore nett plus in advances. The advance for the first day is actually more than Bahubali - The Conclusion but the oether four days of the weekend are far lesser than the two days of Bahubali - The Conclusion. War is a national holiday release so the advance is more lopsided for that national holiday which happens with the all the holiday releases.
The advance is super strong across mass centres as it is an action film and its pretty much certain there is going to a huge on the day audience at single screens and shows will go housefull due to the action factor which is a genre being generally neglected by the Hindi filmmakers even though it is the genre with the most potential. There will be capacity problems at some theatres as there are other new releases and even holdovers being screened in some shows which limites the shows for War while the bulk of audience will be coming for War only. Basically if War was being screened where the other films will play it would have got higher occupancy but multiplexes are about choice so they probably have to play the other films even though they know the occupancy going to less with these films compared to War. The top advances of all time are as follows.
1. Avengers: Endgame - 49,62,00,000 (Hindi and English version in Hindi markets, without South India)
