Jaat Swept By Kesari Chapter 2

Jaat is swept by Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday, and R. Madhavan starrer Kesari Chapter 2. The Sunny Deol actioner has witnessed 41.26% less footfall on its day 11 compared to Kesari Chapter 2's day 3, which is the first Sunday of the patriotic drama at the box office.

For the unversed, Jaat has had 15.77% overall occupancy on day 10 while Kesari Chapter 2 had 25.78% on day 2, which was yesterday. Now, it is to see how Kesari Chapter 2 beats Jaat today in terms of box office numbers.

Recently in an interview with First Post, Sunny Deol opened up how he considers himself as a massy hero, "I definitely consider myself to be a mass. 99% of our audiences are people who want to come to cinemas. They did not think about money back in the day because cinema viewing was a feasible experience. It's become little expensive today and that's the reason they don't go in large numbers. They want to watch the kind of films that have a good story and something they can relate to. They want to watch heroism and stories that they wish were true. And that's when you see numbers go to such heights."

Talking about the lesser amount of footfall in the theatres as earlier, Sunny gave a logical answer, "They come to the cinemas when they have to watch a film and they will not come if they don't want to watch a film. What I feel is that always tell a story with honesty. Don't think what the audiences are liking because you are also a part of them. I am not a buyer of all that. We are simple people, give us a good story and we will watch it. When we talk about the other kind of cinema that is existing, the Box Office of the film always depends on its cost. We have started making a lot of noise about 'itna number hona chahiye and all that.' People should realize kuch filmon ki taaqat wahan tak hi hai. If a film that is made at a budget of 10 crore makes 20-25 crores, it's a successful film. This debate will keep going on and on. I have seen this over the years."
