The box office heat intensifies as Salman Khan’s niece, Alizeh Agnihotri, makes her debut with ‘Farrey,’ competing against her uncle’s blockbuster ‘Tiger 3.’ The first-day collections reveal a significant contrast between the films, with ‘Tiger 3’ amassing ₹3.5 crore while ‘Farrey’ opened with a ₹50 lakh haul. Despite the stark difference, positive reviews for ‘Farrey’ hint at a potential surge over the weekend.
While ‘Tiger 3’ seems to have hit a slowdown, ‘Farrey,’ directed by Soumendra Padhi and featuring Alizeh Agnihotri alongside a stellar cast, shows promise with its smaller budget and a positive reception. Salman Khan, during the trailer launch, expressed his admiration for the film, originally planned for an OTT release but shifted to theaters due to its exceptional content and the talents of its young actors.
The buzz around ‘Farrey’ has been complemented by favorable reviews and word-of-mouth recommendations, potentially aiding its gradual rise in collections. However, with the impending release of ‘Animal’ starring Ranbir Kapoor on the horizon, ‘Farrey’ faces a limited window to make its mark at the box office.
Meanwhile, ‘Tiger 3,’ the third installment in the successful ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ franchise, faces a dip in collections, trailing significantly behind YRF’s previous spy thriller, ‘Pathaan.’ Despite starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Emraan Hashmi, ‘Tiger 3’ experiences a decline in numbers, prompting discussions about its future run at the box office.
