You are a liar, I am a liar Releasing this Friday and the way things stand now; It should be opened in the range of Rs. 12-13 crores. It should be a good start for the film, as Ranbir Kapoor’s last release was released BrahmastraOnly three Bollywood films had a good opening – Drishyam 2 (Rs 15.38 crore), Ram Setu (Rs 15.25 crore) and then the mother of all legends, Pathan (Rs 57 crores). Otherwise, no other Bollywood film has opened even in the double digits and that tells a lot.
So, the first task in the hands of the Luv Ranjan directorial is to take a double digit opening and if the advance bookings are any indication, it is well taken care of. Post here, the next big milestone will be to break Rs. 15 crore ceiling. Ideally, a film of this scale and stature should have set itself up for Rs. 20 cr starts but then the audience has become more and more selective and hence it is better to be conservative rather than bullish. As a result, the first day numbers of over Rs. 15 crores would be good enough and it is something that is also in the cards. Anything more than this would be an added bonus for the film which also stars Boney Kapoor in a pivotal role.
If indeed it happens, it will be more than double the size of Luv Ranjan’s previous directorial venture. Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety Brought (6.42 crore rupees) on the first day. actually last year Bachchan Pandey He was also successful in collecting Rs. 13.25 cr on Day 1 despite heavy wave The Kashmir Files which was released just a week ago and here You are a liar, I am a liar Coming alone with no major releases before or after it. In terms of release strategy, everything is going in favor of big budget rom-coms from which Bollywood has high hopes.
