An executive from a leading multiplex chain shared, “An opening collection is good, but the real test for any film is the weekday performance.” He further noted, “Consistency is key, and content is the king.”
Final Thoughts
‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ stands at a crossroads where its future success will heavily rely on word-of-mouth and the appeal of its lead actors. As the industry looks on, the film continues its battle to win over audiences and box office figures.
With a current total of ₹51.40 crore, the film demonstrates the unpredictable waves of box office fortune, reaffirming the complex art of filmmaking and film selling in modern-day Bollywood.
