Bachchan Pandey or Bachchhan Paandey wins as a mass entertainer, critics, and audiences who watched this film in Holi Weekend praised but The Kashmir Files is movement at this time and moviegoers prefer TKF over BP.
The film Bachchan Pandey releases on the auspicious day of Holi, starts screening afternoon as the shows were not allowed amid Holi Playing, so Rs 13.25 Cr was a good opening in this case but Saturday Box Office number was totally disappointed.
If we compare this big commercial film with The Kashmir Files, TKF scored 19 Cr+ on Holi occasion day and 25+ on Saturday but Bachchhan Paandey failed to make a jump and scored just 12 Crore.
Now The Kashmir Files is not a small film anymore, it’s an All-Time Blockbuster and creating history with each passing day, its political controversy makes people more eager to watch this in theatres.
Bachchhan Paandey will have a week to perform, if SS Rajamouli’s next RRR shows the same magic as the Bahubali series then Akki’s this film can over with unexpectedly low number.
Bachchan Pandey 1st Sunday score expected around at least Rs 15 Crore, which means no huge jump on the first big holiday, another side 11 March release The Kashmir Files 2nd Sunday Score is 25 Cr+, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri’s film badly affected Akki’s masala film Bachchan Pandey.
No jump on Sunday and the Bachchan Pandey’s path ahead is not easy as most-hyped RRR on the way:
Bachchan Pandey Day 1 Collection: 13.25 Cr
Bachchan Pandey Day 1 Collection: 12.00 Cr
Bachchan Pandey Day 1 Collection: 12.00 Cr
Bachchan Pandey total Collection: Rs 37.25 Cr
#BachchhanPaandey remains low over the weekend, mainly due to #TKF juggernaut that eclipsed the biz of *all* films… Did not witness growth on Day 3… Fri 13.25 cr, Sat 12 cr, Sun 12 cr. Total: ₹ 37.25 cr. #India biz. pic.twitter.com/XOQIs0CVtq

Farhad Samji’s directional Bachchan Pandey or Bachchhan Paandey has everything that a masala film should have but a collision with an underdog film is shocking for this film.
Akki’s fanbase is happier for Bachchan Pandey than his last release Sooryavanshi but at that time there was no collision at Box Office.
