soorma box office day 1

Shaad Ali’s directorial based on the life of Indian Hockey player Sandeep Singh hit the silver screens on July 13. Titled ‘Soorma‘, the film revolves around the comeback of Singh, who was paralyzed due to an accidental gun-shot. While the performances of Diljit Dosanjh, Taapsee Pannu, and Angad Bedi are spectacular, the film opened with fewer numbers at the box office.

But then, this is the fate of content-driven films in Bollywood. Nevertheless, coming back to the first day numbers of ‘Soorma’, it has raked in Rs 3.25 crores at the box office. As per trade analyst, Taran Adarsh, the sports drama had a slow start in the morning, but, gained momentum by the evening.

Taking to his Twitter handle, Adarsh wrote, “After a slow start in morning shows [North India opening was good due to Diljit Dosanjh’s stardom], #Soorma gathered momentum from evening onwards… Is looking at substantial growth on Sat and Sun thanks to strong word of mouth… Fri ₹ 3.25 cr. India biz.”
