Box Office: 'Singham Again' Opening Day/First Friday Early Estimates

Mumbai, November 1 - One of the most-anticipated movies of the year, director Rohit Shetty's cop action drama Singham Again lives up to the expectations and scores an excellent opening at the domestic box office by surpassing all expectations.

Starring Ajay Devgn in the title role, Singham 3 was released in a major clash with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and despite that, it has emerged as the biggest opener for the actor by a long margin. According to the early estimates, the movie is expected to score 43-44 crores net on its first day.



The movie had fantastic pre-sales and due to the Diwali holiday factor and the genre, it managed to score solid spot bookings to push the opening past 40 crores net. As said, it is the biggest opener for Ajay, surpassing Singham Returns (2014) which minted 32.10 crores net collection.

Singham Again has performed best in its core markets, such as Maharashtra, and Gujarat along with Rajasthan where previous Singham movies did amazingly well.

The initial word of mouth seems to be mixed which is expected for these kinds of films. Singham Again will be looking to capitalize on the massive start to score a big opening weekend which can be in the range of 120-130 crores net. It all boils down to Monday's hold when word of mouth will have its say.
