Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif starer Phantom is all set to hit the theaters tomorrow. Phantom is one of the most anticipated projects of Kabir Khan. It took him more than three years to complete this project. Moreover, Kabir Khan recently delivered the biggest blockbuster of all time with Bajrangi Bhaijaan and hence the expectations are sky-high from him.
Today, we will discuss the opening and lifetime Box Office prediction of Phantom.
Phantom Box Office Collection Prediction and Analysis
Despite being big names associated with it, Phantom hasn’t been able to create the hype and buzz expected from it. Saif Ali Khan is a promising actor but his current form hasn’t been good. His last four releases bombed at Box Office. In fact, he delivered his last hit way back in Jan 2013 with Race 2. Katrina Kaif is one of those actresses who can’t carry any movie solely on her shoulders. She has always worked with big actors and hence her track record remains safe. Kabir Khan seems to be the only grace for Phantom. The director is in top notch having delivered two back to back blockbusters with Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
Phantom Box Office Collection Prediction and Analysis: Positives and Negative
Positives
1) Kabir Khan’s track record: Backing of two blockbusters
2) Super hit music: Thanks to Afghan Jalebi
3) No competition at Box Office
Negatives
1) Saif Ali Khan’s recent form
2) High budget: The movie is made on a decent budget of 70 crores.
3) Low hype and buzz
Phantom Box Office Collection Prediction and Analysis: Opening, Weekend and Lifetime
If WOM turns out to be positive
Phantom Opening Day Collection: 7 to 8 crores
Phantom Opening Weekend Collection: 24 to 26 crores
Phantom Opening Week Collection: 50 to 52 crores
Phantom Lifetime Collection: 85 to 90 crores
Verdict: Hit
If WOM turns out to be mixed
Phantom Opening Day Collection: 7 to 8 crores
Phantom Opening Weekend Collection: 22 to 24 crores
Phantom Opening Week Collection: 46 to 48 crores
Phantom Lifetime Collection: 70 to 75 crores
Verdict: Average
If WOM turns out to be negative
Phantom Opening Day Collection: 7 to 8 crores
Phantom Opening Weekend Collection: 20 to 22 crores
Phantom Opening Week Collection: 38 to 40 crores
Phantom Lifetime Collection: 55 to 60 crores
Verdict: Flop
Phantom should get a decent start at Box Office. Considering the subject and the current buzz surrounding the movie, it would be difficult for it to sustain at Box Office. Even if WOM turns out to be exceptional, Phantom would find it difficult to cross 100 crores at Box Office.
This is what I am predicting from Phantom. Lifetime collection: 80 Crores, Verdict: Average
