Shershaah Scores On Amazon Prime

Shershaah released a couple of weeks back has scored on Amazon Prime as it becomes the most viewed content on that platform over a two week period. The film is said to have sustained its viewership remarkably well over the two weeks.

Shershaah would have good chances of doing something at the box office in a normal scenario especially in the Delhi NCR and East Punjab belts. In fact with these two areas being more advanced in terms of the audience returning at present, a release even now could have returned good numbers. It would have had higher numbers than Bell Bottom in these areas for sure due to content more appealing to these markets. But Shershaah would have needed a normal scenario across all Hindi markets to have a chance to og overall good numbers and the makers probably could not wait that long so it had to have an OTT release.

There have been many patriotic films made in India but few war films and even less have worked. Border (1997) is the grandfather of all war films by a distance with Uri The Surgical Strike (2019) being the next best. Then there was Haqeeqat in 1965 which was not liked when released in 1965 but did a bit better in the years after but that was mainly as Dharmendra had become a huge star which got it some repeat runs and there was a patriotic song in the film which was hugely popular. So the minor success was not really coming for the film but other points.

Shershaah could have come after Border and Uri - The Surgical Strike but that will never be known. Obviously if satellite does well then success becomes locked but here again war films are not big on satellite going by the results of Uri - The Surgical Strike. The results on digital ensure the film is one of the successful films since the cinemas shut last year and they have been very few.

Newcomers Since 1994 - Top Opening Day Collections

Mirziya has opened to very low numbers and this the case with most newcomer films Below is a list of the opening day figures of newcomer films since 1994 where generally the male lead is a newcomer and in some films the pairing itself is being introduced. In the last few years Student Of The Year, Heropanti and Hero (Salman Khan factor) have got what can be called good openings. Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na had a good opening in 2008 (Aamir Khan factor). Saawariya in 2007 also opened well but as it was a clash with Om Shanti Om the figures looked low as the Shahrukh Khan film was almost double.

The last time that newcomer films took a huge start was along time ago. Refugee in 2000 and before that Barsaat in 1995. The former actually broke the opening day record as it was the entry of Amitabh Bachchan's son and the director J.P. Dutta was coming off one the biggest hits of all time Border and this was again a similar type of film and the audience came in hordes to watch initially. Kaho Na... Pyaar Hai took an excellentl in Mumbai circuit. Below are the opening day collections of newcomer films snce 1994.
