Gadar 2 and OMG 2 have been tough competitors for the film. Both films were launched on August 11 and have done well, with Gadar 2 on track to exceed the 400 crore milestone.
The plot of Ghoomer revolves around Anina (played by Saiyami Kher), a rising cricket star, who suffers a horrific accident in which she loses her right hand shortly before her debut in international cricket and a bitter former cricketer (played by Abhishek Bachchan), who once harboured ambitions but failed to achieve success.
He enters her life and introduces a new goal and modifies her destiny with creative training tactics. This expedition reintroduces her to the Indian cricket team, but this time as a bowler. This boosts her potential and goals.
