Interestingly, YRF has secured and locked showcasing in more than 90 percent of the single screens across the country. “The North Indian market will be dominated by War 2 as far as the showcasing schedule is concerned, and the exhibitors too are willingly in favour of the Ayan Mukerji directorial. It’s a star-heavy action extravaganza, and is expected to attract strong footfalls over the four-day opening weekend. The showcasing and screen count has been designed to match onto the demand for the film in the cine-goers,” the source added.
