Bad Newz Advance Bookings Surpass Sarfira, Promising Strong Box Office Debut

Bad Newz Advance Booking Collection Day 1: Vicky Kaushal is currently enjoying a successful phase in his career. Known for his roles in films like Uri: The Surgical Strike, Sam Bahadur, Sardar Udham, and Zara Hatke Zara Bachke, he is now gearing up for his first release of 2024. The upcoming film, Bad Newz, also stars Triptii Dimri and Ammy Virk. Directed by Anand Tiwari, this comedy-drama is one of the most eagerly awaited releases of the year.

The film has generated significant buzz due to its stellar cast, engaging trailer, and Vicky's chemistry with Triptii. The songs have also contributed to the excitement surrounding Bad Newz. With anticipation building, the makers recently opened advance bookings for the film. The response has been positive in terms of collections.

Sacnilk reports that Bad Newz collected Rs 36.94 lakhs from selling 12.8K tickets within 24 hours of opening bookings. This marks a strong start and surpasses Akshay Kumar and Radhika Madan's recent release Sarfira, which earned Rs 22.4 lakhs with over 11 thousand tickets sold in the same timeframe. Speculations suggest that Bad Newz might achieve a double-digit opening day collection at the box office. Observers are keen to see if it will break the current dry spell at ticket counters.

Vicky Kaushal shared his thoughts on exploring comedy for the first time with Bad Newz in an interview with Money Control. He said, "For any actor, there is this urge to do as many different kinds of roles as possible. Luckily, I got to work in many different genres and was offered diverse roles. I have worked with many different directors, and my personal favorite genre is drama and action. While doing comedy, you get a lot of confidence because you have cracked it."

He further added, "There are many legendary actors like Govinda, Akshay sir, Kishore Kumar ji, and even Diljit (Dosanjh) Paaji. They have been absolutely fantastic at comedy, and we have also tried our hands at it. So, it is a fun film that you can watch with your family while eating popcorn".

The advance booking figures indicate that audiences are eager to see what Bad Newz has to offer. With its promising start in advance sales and positive pre-release buzz, expectations are high for its performance at the box office.

As fans await the release date, industry insiders are optimistic about the film's potential success given its early momentum in ticket sales.
