The much-anticipated film “Vedaa” has made a solid impact at the box office, delivering impressive numbers during its opening weekend. “Vedaa,” starring an ensemble cast and backed by strong promotional efforts, has attracted significant attention from audiences. On its first day, the film garnered a substantial collection, setting the stage for a promising weekend run.
Nikkhil Advani’s action film, starring John Abraham, Sharvari, Abhishek Banerjee, and Tamannaah Bhatia, was one of the three Bollywood releases this week on the occasion of Independence Day. Reports suggest that, Vedaa lags far behind Stree 2, the clear winner, it’s managed to secure the second position on the opening day.
According to reports, Vedaa scored ₹6.52 crore at the domestic box office. Most of its earnings (₹6.5 crore) came from the Hindi market. This is John’s biggest opening in six years, ever since his 2018 Independence Day blockbuster, Satyamev Jayate. However, John’s biggest opening (not as a lead actor) obviously remains Siddharth Anand’s spy thriller Pathaan last year. Speaking of Pathaan, the other Independence Day release, this year- Amar Kaushik’s horror comedy ‘Stree 2’ starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, has opened at ₹54.35 crore, just a few lakhs less than the Hindi version of Pathaan.
Let’s see if “Vedaa” continues to captivate audiences, whether it’s box office performance reaffirms it’s potential to be one of the standout hits of the year or no.
