Befikre Economics and Box Office Analysis

The makers of the movie have recovered a healthy amount through satellite, music and digital rights. Around 36 crores have been recovered through satellite and music rights. Yash Raj Films is distributing the film themselves thus there is no middle man and commission involved. Befikre is a very much a safe bet as far the economics are concerned. Even with a poor performance, Befikre will be a safe film for the makers. Still, the movie needs to perform well to emerge as a Box Office success.

Befikre Expectations & Prediction

The real problem for Befikre is its limited appeal. The movie has no appeal for the mass audience. The movie boasts on Ranveer Singh and Aditya Chopra’s track record. After a poor trailer, the music of the film has become a big hit which will help it to take a decent opening. Weare expecting an opening of around 30%. The first day collection of the movie will be around 8 crores. (Read: Befikre Box Office Prediction)
