The upcoming month will witness the clash of two big films, Batwara 1947 and Awarapan 2. The promotional assets of both movies are being slowly released for the audience, and people are eventually making predictions about their fate at the box office.
As of now, everything released by the makers of Batwara 1947 has been good, but not outstanding at the same time. While Sunny Deol’s previous few films instantly connected with the audience, Batwara has been unable to do it, despite being directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and produced by Aamir Khan.
Trade experts stated that the possible reason could be the extreme resemblance to Gadar 2. They even believe that the theme of partition is very outdated in today’s time and audiences want to watch something fresh.
However, critics stated that the tables can turn for now if the makers bring a powerful trailer that is hard-hitting. Sunny Deol’s fans have previously reacted by saying that they were missing the actor’s punchlines compared to what they saw in Gadar 2 and Jaat. Nothing much can be said about Sunny’s presentation in the film until the entire movie comes out in the theatre.
On the other hand, Awarapan 2 is also in the same situation. But compared to Batwara 1947, people are talking about Awarapan 2. Netizens believe that the film will bring the much-needed hype once the iconic songs are released in a new form. The teaser had a glimpse of Toh Phir Aao, which means that people will get to recall their memories with the first film.
Trade experts said that more than the story, it is the music that is going to contribute to the success of Awarapan 2. Although it is a sequel, trade experts stated that it is expected to have some freshness since a lot of things look different if compared to the first film.
Online users also reacted by saying that considering the ongoing situation, Awarapan 2 is supposed to take a bigger opening at the box office. The reported budget is between Rs. 100-120 crores, which means that a double-digit opening is needed for recovery.
The upcoming clash is something that everyone is waiting to witness, specifically the results in terms of box office numbers. Let’s wait and see who is going to survive for a long time in the theatres.
