Vanvaas, directed by Anil Sharma and starring Nana Patekar, Utkarsh Sharma, and Simrat Kaur, couldn’t lure the audience much on its opening day. The family emotional drama didn’t find much audience at the box office, resulting in a dull start.
Vanvaas takes an underwhelming start; receives mixed-bag reactions
Vanvaas hits the big screen today in a clash with Mufasa: The Lion King where Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 is still thriving at the box office with most of the screens. As per estimates, the Nana Patekar movie could only manage to take a start of Rs 75 lakh, which is an underwhelming figure to say so.
The Anil Sharma movie opened to mixed word-of-mouth, which is a major roadblock for its business. Since the genre is not appealing to the masses in 2024, the movie should have opened to a superlative audience reception in order to put up a healthy total in the long run.
However, it will be interesting to see if the family drama can find an audience in the coming days. Though, it will not be an easy task as the competition is about to intensify with the arrival of Varun Dhawan’s Baby John on Christmas Day.
