'Bhaiya Ji' who roared on the first day could not make it big! Opening was weak, 'Srikanth's magic still remains

'Bhaiya Ji' lags behind in earning from multiplexes, less focus on single screens too

One of the biggest problems with 'Bhaiya Ji' is that the makers have made it keeping in mind the audience of single screen theatres and small towns. This is not a film for the multiplex audience of big cities and this has proved to be a loss for the film. It earns a lot from multiplexes, but the film is not able to attract the audience there. While single screen theatres also attract a huge crowd of audience, Manoj Bapuji's stardom has faded a bit. He is definitely a strong actor, but his stardom is not such that he can bring an army of fans to the ticket window.

'Srikanth' earned so many crores even on the 15th day

On the other hand, the success of Rajkumar Rao's 'Srikant' continues on the 15th day as well. On Friday, once again, the film has earned more than Rs 1.50 crore. On the 15th day, this film has done a business of Rs 1.20 crore. A day before, on Thursday, it had collected Rs 1.45 crore. In such a situation, due to the release of 'Bhaiya Ji' and Hollywood film 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga', it has definitely suffered a loss of Rs 25 lakh. But there are chances of increase in earnings in the coming weekend. Blind businessman Shrikant told that this biopic has collected a total of Rs 32.70 crore in 15 days.

Earnings will decrease due to Lok Sabha elections on Saturday

One thing to understand here is that the sixth phase of elections is being held in the country on Saturday i.e. 25th May. In such a situation, many areas of Delhi, UP and Bihar will be affected by this. Due to the scorching heat, the audience is also staying away from the cinema halls. Therefore, 'Bhaiya Ji' may have to suffer losses on the second day i.e. Saturday. There are chances of increase in earnings on Sunday, but looking at the way the film is not getting much appreciation, there are no signs of much increase in it.
