Shaad Ali's recently released film Soorma has collected a total of Rs 19.61 crore at the domestic box office and is likely tol end its first week with a healthy figure of Rs 20 crore. Soorma may have started on a slow note last Friday clashing with Hollywood's Ant-Man And The Wasp but the film performed way better over the weekend. After six days of its run at the theatres, Soorma has garnered over Rs. 19 crores at the box office, trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted. As per his prediction, the biopic on former Hockey captain Sandeep Singh should close week 1 with Rs. 21 crores, which means, the film needs another two crores to be added from Day 7 collections.
Sharing Soorma's progress on the box office meter, this is what Mr Adarsh wrote: "Soorma should collect Rs. 21 cr in Week 1, as per trending... Weekend 2 is crucial... Fri 3.20 cr, Sat 5.05 cr, Sun 5.60 cr, Mon 2 cr, Tue 1.94 cr, Wed 1.77 cr. Total: Rs. 19.56 cr."
Based on the life journey of hockey player Sandeep Singh, Soorma is garnering immense love and appreciation from the audience and critics alike. The second weekend is indeed "crucial" for Soorma as Janhvi Kapoor's debut film Dhadak has released in theatres today. Dhadak has already negated massive interest and the possibility of the sports biopic getting overshadowed can't be ignored.
