Key Highlight
  • Vedaa registers low advance bookings for Independence Day holiday
  • Vedaa relies on great word of mouth and strong walk-ups to sail through
  • Vedaa releases in theatres on 15th August, 2024

Vedaa directed by Nikhil Advani and starring John Abraham, Tamannaah and Sharvari recorded poor advances as it could only manage to sell 22000 tickets in top chains for the opening day. It will heavily rely upon walk-ups for a decent turnout this Independence Day. If lucky, it may be the second most preferred movie option, only behind Stree 2 which is in a league of its own. However, as things stand, Vedaa heads into the holiday period as the third most preferred movie option for Hindi movie audiences.

Vedaa Sells Only 22000 Tickets In Top Multiplex Chains For Independence Day; Third Most Preferred Hindi Film So Far

Vedaa is John Abraham's first release since the all time blockbuster success of Pathaan. Pathaan released a year and a half back and it was hoped and expected that this new John Abraham movie would have more urgency among moviegoers. Sadly, that has not happened. The major clash has resulted in the division of screens and with audience having numerous options to choose from, Vedaa is clearly not the first movie to watch out for, for the majority of the viewers, this Independence Day.

Vedaa Depends On Strong Walks Ups And Great Word Of Mouth Due To Low Advance Bookings

Heavy walk-ups and great word of mouth is what is most important for Vedaa, now. It can emerge a moderate success at the box office even with Rs 60-70 crore nett on the board, knowing that it is not a steeply budgeted movie. That number itself is very difficult because of the big clash but there's no reason not to be hopeful. John Abraham in films in the similar zone, on the same day, has mostly delivered. Both Satyameva Jayate and Batla House were hits at the box office and both released on Independence Day. Interestingly, both movies locked horns with an Akshay Kumar starrer. The catch is that they didn't have a third film in the clash as big as Stree 2, ever.
