Sonu Sood is all set to make his directorial debut with his upcoming film ‘Fateh’, scheduled to release on January 10, 2025.
The film will face a direct clash with Ram Charan’s ‘Game Changer’, also releasing on the same day.
Despite Ram Charan becoming a nationwide sensation with his work in RRR, there seems to be very little to no buzz for Game Changer in the North.
Even those who know about it are unwilling to watch it in the theatres due to being completely saturated by Allu Arjun’s ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’.
With such low hype and dwindling expectations, ‘Game Changer’ will struggle to make an opening day collection of even Rs.5 crores.
Fateh’s hype does not seem any better as well, with speculations that it will struggle to make an opening of even Rs.1 crore.
In an unexpected twist, Sonu Sood has come forward to announce a nationwide ticket price of Rs.99 for Fateh on Day 1, while also stating that he will donate all directorial profits to charity.
This decision may shift the dynamics in Sood’s favour, as more people may flock to watch Fateh on the first day, even if it is just for a time pass, owing to its cheap ticket price.
This move will definitely play out in Sonu Sood’s favour, damaging the performance of Game Changer in the Northern belt.
The extent of the damage will be known on January 10th, as both films collide head-to-head with each other.
