Ajay Devgn's 'Raid 2' Opening Day Box Office Expectations

Mumbai, April 30 - After the big success of Raid (2018), Bollywood star Ajay Devgn and director Raj Kumar Gupta have reunited for its sequel, which hits the big screen on May 1st. The movie has been censored with a U/A certificate with an approved runtime of 2 hours and 30 minutes, and is carrying positive buzz. ## Lately, the franchise-based films are doing wonders at the box office, and it seems, Raid 2 is set to be the next in the list. The advance booking of the movie was opened a couple of days ago, and the response has been pleasant, with one of the best for a Bollywood movie of the year. ## As of 8 PM on April 30, Raid 2 has sold around 160K tickets worth approximately 4.35 crores gross for the opening day. The final sales are heading towards 5-5.50 crores gross, and in comparison with one of Ajay Devgn's recent films, Shaitaan, which scored approximately 4.15 crores pre-sales for the opening day. ## Raid 2 will reportedly be released on over 3500+ screens across the country, which is among the biggest of the year. Considering the pre-sales trend and strong franchise value, the film is expected to open in the range of 15-17 crores net, despite the competition with holdovers and new releases. ## Shaitaan, with 4.15 crores pre-sales, took the opening of approximately 14.75 crores net, and Raid 2 will look to open in the same range, with a strong possibility of going higher, especially since the Maharashtra Day/Labour Day holiday in some states on Thursday. The positive word of mouth may further strengthen the opening, which needs to be seen.## If Raid 2 manages to click with the audience positively, then the film will be guaranteed to have a good run at the box office with not much competition, other than with holdovers to some extent, for the next few weeks. It needs to be seen how the movie fares on the opening day and during the weekend.## Stay tuned...
