Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has sold more than double the tickets of the biographical sports drama. However, if observed closely, the two films have fallen short of the Eid expectations. The combined advance sales fails to do justice to a Eid release. it will be interesting to note the rise of the films from their release since they do not have any major competition lined-up in near future.
As per media reports, the big-budget action film Bade Miyan Chote Miyan is predicted to open at Rs 15 cr, while the Ajay Devgn-starring film is estimated to earn Rs 7 cr on Eid. Ajay was last seen in the unexpectedly successful horror flick Shaitaan, while Akshay and Tiger have had underwhelming performances before this. With the two films releasing on the same day, a lot is at stake for the two superstars. While Ajay is eyeing a double hit with Maidaan, Akshay is hoping to make his first 2024 release a hit at the box office.
