Sam Bahadur Will Need To Show Solid Growth Over The Weekend

Sam Bahadur will need to show some solid growth over the weekend, something it has the potential of. A weekend of over Rs 22 crores is what the film is looking at, at the moment. The year of 2023 has been a mixed bag for Vicky Kaushal with a super-hit in Zara Hatke Zara Bachke and a disaster in The Great Indian Family. Sam Bahadur's opening is the biggest of his three films this year and what needs to be seen is whether it can have theatrical legs that are as strong as Zara Hatke Zara Bachke or not. The actor's busy year does not end with Sam Bahadur as there is Dunki, which is running on tremendous buzz and goodwill behind it.
