Despite facing mixed reviews, Akshay Kumar’s latest venture, “Bade Miyan Chote Miyan,” co-starring Tiger Shroff, enters the box office arena with hopes of turning the tide for the actor, who has encountered a string of challenges in recent years. While Kumar’s last hit dates back to 2019 with “Good Newwz,” subsequent releases have struggled to make a mark, including the underwhelming performance of “Sooryavanshi” in 2021 and a series of disappointments in 2022 and 2023.

The stakes are high for “Bade Miyan Chote Miyan,” especially considering its strategic release during the Eid and Navratri weekend. Akshay Kumar, known for targeting patriotic themes around Republic Day and Independence Day, ventures into the Eid territory once again, reminiscent of his past success with “Bhool Bhulaiyaa.”

Reflecting on Bhool Bhulaiyaa’s Eid Triumph

Released in 2007, “Bhool Bhulaiyaa” marked Akshay Kumar’s earlier foray into the Eid release slot. The horror-comedy, featuring Vidya Balan and Shiney Ahuja, not only revived the genre but also set a precedent for Eid releases. Despite a modest opening of 3.88 crore, the film witnessed a steady climb, ultimately grossing around 50 crore at the box office. Its success underscored the potential of Eid as a lucrative box office window.

Can Bade Miyan Chote Miyan Surpass Bhool Bhulaiyaa’s Record?

“Bade Miyan Chote Miyan” is anticipated to kickstart its journey with an opening collection ranging between 17 to 20 crore, a promising start that could potentially surpass the first-weekend earnings of “Bhool Bhulaiyaa.” Helmed by acclaimed director Ali Abbas Zafar, the film holds the promise of captivating audiences and rewriting Akshay Kumar’s history with Eid releases.

Box Office Prospects and Beyond

As the curtains rise on “Bade Miyan Chote Miyan,” industry analysts await eagerly to witness the film’s box office trajectory and its potential to mirror the success of “Bhool Bhulaiyaa.” Amidst the uncertainties of the box office landscape, Akshay Kumar’s latest offering serves as a beacon of hope, aiming to carve its place in the annals of Bollywood history.
