The excitement of the much-awaited release of Sam Bahadur is palpable. The biographical drama, directed by Meghna Gulzar, showcases the illustrious life of Indian Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. Advance bookings are also showing promising numbers setting the stage for a triumphant December for the Hindi Film Industry.
Starring the talented Vicky Kaushal, the film also boasts a stellar cast including actresses Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh. Scheduled to hit theaters on December 1, 2023, the film has already garnered attention with its solid promotional campaign.
Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur: How many tickets have been sold so far?
As the countdown to the release date continues, the advance bookings for Sam Bahadur are going strong. The film has managed to sell an impressive 15,000 tickets for the opening day in top national chains. Additionally, as per predictions, this number will close in on an impressive 40,000 by the end of its advance booking period.
Also, comparisons with other releases of the year show that Sam Bahadur is holding its own in the competitive landscape. However, it may not match the films that benefited from holiday releases. Nevertheless, the advance booking numbers are fabulous given its non-holiday release status.
The film will face tough competition from the giant release, Animal. However, industry experts also suggest that Sam Bahadur might actually benefit from this clash. According to them, Animal will likely draw a massive audience, so that might create a spillover effect for Sam Bahadur.
Currently, the advance bookings for the film are on track to surpass the figures of Vicky Kaushal’s previous 2023 super-hit release, Zara Hatke Zara Bachke, which opened to an above-expected number of slightly over $5 hundred thousand. The target for this film will be set to reach or even exceed this benchmark.
The success of the advance bookings attributes to the compelling and riveting promos of Sam Bahadur, which have effectively piqued the audience’s interest. As the release date approaches, all eyes are on the film to deliver on the promises made by its engaging promotional material.
