Zara Hatke Zara Bachke Advance Booking: Vicky Kaushal and Sara Ali Khan starrer Zara Hatke Zara Bachke sold a decent 22000 tickets in advance in three national chains. However, the opening day booking was aided by the ‘buy one get one’ offer.
Initially, it lookled the film would struggle to sell, but it somehow managed to sell a decent amount of tickets in advance booking. The online buy one get one offer helped box office sell a sizeable number for the opening day. It now remains to be seen how the Laxman Utekar film fares during the weekend. Analysts feel if the ticket movement remains right, the opening day number can be in the vicinity of Rs 4 crores if not more.
Few takers for rom-coms now
ZHZB marks the return of super-hit director Laxman Utekar after Luka Chuppi. However, the box office dynamics now are different from how they were before the Covid-19 pandemic. Audiences were happy with mid-sized rom-com dramas. Things are different now and ZHZB had low trade expectation but the number of tickets sold in advance has brought back some optimism.
A typical romantic comedy, ZHZB looks a bit old fashioned. Recent trends show that the concept of this movie is out of date, due to which its collection may get affected.
Sara Ali Khan and Vicky Kaushal are returning to theatres after their numerous projects that released directly on digital. It remains to be seen if audiences will make the effort to watch them in theatre.
No significant local competition
There is no local competition to Zara Hatke Zara Bachke for at least two weeks till the release of Adipurush. However, it is locking horns with the animated Spider-Man flick Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse and that could be a spoiler. Trade analysts believe that the Spider-Man film will be the most preferred film at the Indian box office this week but one can never absolutely know until it happens.
