Fighter Trailer’s Box Office Triumph on Day 1: Hrithik Roshan Ready for a Bang Bang, Outshining Pathaan’s Rubia Deepika Padukone
Siddharth Anand’s film “Fighter” has finally taken off with its trailer, and it seems to be one of the fastest take-offs we’ve witnessed. Initially, the film started off on a slower note, with the teaser and other promotional materials not creating much buzz. However, the recently released trailer has managed to turn things around and is expected to have a significant impact on its box office performance on day one.
Following the tried and tested ‘Siddharth Anand’ formula, “Fighter” appears to be designed to be slick from every angle. The lead actors, Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone, look poised to win every fashion competition. The film also includes a beach song that adds oomph and sensuality to the movie. Additionally, the conflict between patriots and those from Pakistan plays a crucial role in the plot.
The film’s release on January 26th, right after the inauguration of the Ram Mandir on January 22nd, could prove to be beneficial. The theme of patriotism in “Fighter” aligns with the festive season, which may attract a larger audience.
The trailer of “Fighter” is undoubtedly the film’s best asset thus far. It showcases why Siddharth Anand chose Hrithik Roshan as the lead, with the actor delivering powerful dialogues that leave an impact. Deepika Padukone’s role, however, seems a bit questionable, and it remains to be seen if it will be better than her role in “Pathaan.” The trailer lacks impactful lines for the leading lady, with her best line being a response to Hrithik about her ‘next’ (boyfriend) potentially being from Jammu. This begs the question of why the director didn’t provide stronger lines for her character.
With the release of the trailer, the stakes for “Fighter” have undoubtedly been raised, and it seems capable of achieving a good opening day box office number. Previously, even the 20-crore mark felt like a cap, but the trailer has now moved mountains for its opening day. The film is expected to open in the range of 30-35 crores, thanks to various factors.
