Venom 3 Crushes Banda Singh Chaudhary at Box Office, Even Salman’s Boost Can’t Help!
Arbaaz Khan’s latest film, Banda Singh Chaudhary, has hit theaters with much anticipation. Despite an intensive promotional campaign led by Arbaaz Khan himself, along with the cast, the film has struggled at the box office. Actor Arshad Warsi stars in the lead role, but Banda Singh Chaudhary has not been able to attract audiences in significant numbers. In contrast, Hollywood’s Venom 3 has dominated the box office, leaving Banda Singh Chaudhary far behind. Let’s take a closer look at the box office collections of both films.
Salman Khan's Promotion Didn't Boost Collections
To increase interest, the Banda Singh Chaudhary team made an appearance on Bigg Boss 18, hosted by Salman Khan. However, despite Salman’s support, the film's box office performance remained underwhelming. Although there was a slight increase in collections on Sunday, the impact of the promotion was not as strong as expected. Many theater seats remained empty, with audiences choosing other options over Arbaaz Khan’s production.
Banda Singh Chaudhary was made with a budget of approximately 20 crore rupees. However, the box office earnings so far have fallen short of expectations. Here is a breakdown of the film’s first three days:
- Day 1 (Friday): 17 lakh rupees
- Day 2 (Saturday): 4 lakh rupees
- Day 3 (Sunday): 24 lakh rupees
In total, the film has managed to collect around 81 lakh rupees over its opening weekend. Despite the promotional push, the movie’s theatrical release strategy seems to be struggling, and some speculate it may have performed better on an OTT platform.
‘Venom 3’ Steals the Show
In comparison, Venom 3 has captivated Indian audiences since its release. The movie was launched in multiple languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and English, broadening its reach and appeal. Venom 3, directed by Kelly Marshall, has brought the final chapter of this franchise to life, following up on the success of the previous parts, Venom (2018) and Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021).
The movie’s three-day box office collection reflects its popularity:
- Day 3 Earnings: 9.5 crore rupees
- Total Collection so far: 21.65 crore rupees
The response to Venom 3 has been phenomenal, demonstrating that the franchise’s final film is ending on a high note.
While Venom 3 continues to draw large crowds and maintain momentum at the box office, Banda Singh Chaudhary is struggling to compete. For Arbaaz Khan's film, the low initial collections indicate a rough start, with many audiences showing more excitement for Hollywood releases.
