Over
the
years,
John
Abraham
has
established
himself
in
the
action
genre
with
films
like
Force,
Satyamev
Jayate,
Batla
House
and
many
others.
Some
hit
the
bull's
eye
at
the
box
office;
others
didn't.
Now,
the
actor's
upcoming
release
is
Lakshya
Raj
Anand's
Attack
in
which
he
essays
the
role
of
a
super
soldier
who
is
created
to
combat
terrorism.
The
film
is
scheduled
to
hit
the
big
screens
this
Friday
(April
1).
With
the
film
industry
slowing
getting
back
on
its
feet
in
the
post-pandemic
era
with
blockbuster
successes
like
Alia
Bhatt's
Gangubai
Kathiawadi,
Vivek
Agnihotri's
The
Kashmir
Files
and
Ram
Charan-Jr
NTR's
RRR,
there
are
high
hopes
pinned
on
John
Abraham-starrer
Attack
as
well.
Trade
analyst
Girish
Johar
told
Indian
Express
that
John
is
a
strong
force
at
box
office.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
"He
has
his
own
audience
and
people
want
to
watch
his
films.
He
has
a
very
good
track
record
and
has
the
knack
for
picking
the
right
stories."
He
predicted
that
the
opening
collection
of
Attack
will
be
around
Rs
4-5
Crore.
On
being
asked
if
the
John
Abraham-starrer
would
face
stiff
competition
from
SS
Rajamouli's
RRR
which
is
having
a
smashing
run
at
the
box
office,
Johar
added,
"Since
RRR
is
a
commercial
action
film
and
John's
film
is
also
a
sleek
action
entertainer,
competition
is
inevitable.
The
Kashmir
Files
is
now
in
its
fourth
week
so
it
may
be
a
choice
in
some
of
the
multiplexes
but
I
don't
think
it
will
be
a
major
opposition
to
attack."
Helmed
by
Lakshya
Raj
Anand,
Attack
also
features
Rakul
Preet
Singh
and
Jacqueline
Fernandez
in
pivotal
roles.
