Jaat Box Office Collection Prediction – Day 1
After the massive success of Gadar 2, Sunny Deol is back with another action-packed film, Jaat, which marks his return to the big screen after a two-year hiatus. Directed by Gopichand Malineni, the movie has already made its presence felt at the box office, earning approximately Rs 6.93 crore in early estimates, according to Sacnilk. With an expected surge in collections throughout the day, Jaat could gross up to Rs 10 crore on its opening day.
Jaat Movie Day 1 Performance
Jaat is being shown in around 5,600 screens across India, contributing to its promising start. The film witnessed an occupancy of 12.49% during its morning and afternoon shows, indicating that it has already caught the attention of audiences. With no other major Bollywood releases scheduled until April 18, the movie stands to benefit from less competition, making it well-positioned to perform strongly at the box office.
Although the pre-sales were slightly underwhelming, with Rs 2.37 crore in advance bookings, the film is expected to fare better in tier two and tier three cities, where Sunny Deol has a strong fan following.
Comparison with Past Sunny Deol Films
When compared to Chup (2022), which earned Rs 3.06 crore on Day 1, Jaat is expected to perform significantly better. However, Gadar 2 remains Sunny’s biggest opener, with a record-breaking Rs 41 crore on its release day and a total collection of Rs 686 crore.
Aiming for South Audience with Star Power
One of the key highlights of Jaat is its attempt to reach a broader audience, especially in the South. The film features prominent South stars like Ramya Krishnan and Jagapathi Babu, in addition to Randeep Hooda, Vineet Kumar Singh, and Saiyami Kher in significant roles. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers, the same production house behind Pushpa, Jaat is made on a budget of Rs 100 crore.
Conclusion
With its combination of a star-studded cast, strong action, and limited competition, Jaat has the potential to perform well at the box office, especially in smaller cities. Early projections indicate an opening of Rs 6.93 crore, with expectations to hit Rs 10 crore on Day 1. The coming days will reveal if the film can build on its initial success and emerge as another milestone in Sunny Deol’s career.
