The review of Runway 34 is quite mixed and the critics’ response to Heropanti 2 is rather lukewarm. The box office too is not really as encouraging as it was expected to be.
Heropanti 2 is being marketed aggressively even after the release to ensure that the numbers are better as the advance bookings are not good and the reviews are not really helping.
As for Runway 34, the film is currently being watched more by the “classes” rather than the usual “masses” that love to watch Ajay Devgn. The makers hope that the numbers will get better by the weekend.
“People are going to the theatres, but they will watch films that are exciting. With the recent releases like KGF 2 and others doing well, people expected theatres to go housefull. But that’s not happening as the audience will watch only the films that excite them. Even Jersey didn’t make it big,” says Atul Mohan, editor, Complete Cinema.
Both films, Runway 34 and Heropanti 2 are not expected to cross the eight digit mark in terms of actual collections on the first day, say experts.
