Badla
Opening
Day
Box
Office
Prediction
According
to
a
report
in
Indian
Express,
trade
analyst
Girish
Johar
predicted
that
Badla
would
mint
around
Rs.
3
crore
on
its
opening
day.
Badla
Is
Targeted
At
A
Specific
Audience
He
told
the
leading
daily,
""It
looks
like
an
enticing
thriller.
Though
it
has
good
names
like
Amitabh
(Bachchan)
and
Taapsee
(Pannu)
attached
to
it,
I
feel
this
kind
of
niche
high-end
thrillers
are
targeted
at
a
specific
audience
which
is
the
multiplex
audience."
The
Film
Will
Pick
Up
Collection
Word-Of-Mouth
"The
film
is
promoted
as
a
thriller
and
has
made
the
audience
keen.
I
somehow
feel
this
is
a
film
which
will
work
based
on
word
of
mouth.
It
may
start
decent
but
once
the
word
of
mouth
comes
into
play,
it
might
earn
Rs
3
crore
on
its
opening
day
at
the
box
office."
What
Will
Drive
The
Audience
To
The
Theatres?
To
this,
Johar
replied,
""It
will
be
driven
by
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Taapsee
Pannu.
Sujoy
Ghosh
also
has
a
certain
fan
following
for
his
kind
of
cinema
and
he
has
done
quite
well
in
the
past,
so
people
are
expecting
a
good
thriller
this
time
as
well."
Badla
vs
Captain
Marvel
The
Sujoy
Ghosh's
crime
thriller
might
face
some
stiff
competition
from MCU's
Captain
Marvel
which
also
hits
the
theatrical
screens
in
India
this
Friday.
