Hyderabad: The release of two major Bollywood movies has generated immense enthusiasm among fans and cinephiles. Ranbir Kapoor's Animal and Vicky Kaushal's Sam Bhahadur, which hit the theatres on the same day, is facing head-to-head competition at the box office. While Animal opened with whopping numbers and Sam Bhadur collected decent numbers at the box office on the release day, both films are predicted to experience a significant decline in their box office performance on the second day, according to early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk.
Animal, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, is an action-packed drama that has grossed a staggering amount of Rs 61 crore on its opening day. Nonetheless, it is anticipated to encounter a major drop in collection on day 2. Early estimates hint at a double-digit collection, however, compared to the opening day, the film is likely to face a drop in numbers (Rs 9.46 cr till the time of publishing). Animal stars Ranbir Kapoor as the protagonist, with Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead. Bobby Deol portrays the primary antagonist, while Anil Kapoor plays the role of Ranbir's father.
