Ram Pothineni’s cop drama The Warrior was released in theatres on 14th July and has opened to ordinary numbers at the box office. The negative reviews and “average” word of mouth haven’t helped the film either.
The generic screenplay and the age-old good vs bad has failed to generate any interest in people. Going by the trend, The Warrior seems to be fighting a war against a disaster at the box office.
The film has done a massive business of 35 crores in theatrical rights but the first day collections of the film are a meager 6 crores in share. It has only recovered 17% of its money back. Day 2 is even worse as the film has seen a massive drop in collections on day 2.
The Warrior seems to be fighting a losing battle as the drop in collections indicates a lack of excitement from the audiences. The numbers are also showing a steep decline with every passing day. At this rate, even a 50% recovery seems highly unlikely for Ram and the team. The film is on track to become the biggest disaster in Ram’s career.
The only ray of hope is that the rains in AP and Telangana have settled down, meaning, audiences might opt for a theatre visit on the weekends. This first weekend is crucial for the film because it will decide the movie’s fate at the box office.
The Warrior is a bi-lingual movie directed by N Linguswamy. Aadi Pinishetty and Krithi Shetty also star in important roles. DSP is the music director of the film.
