Box Office Day 1 update: Sooryavanshi opens with 35% occupancy in morning shows

 

As per reports, SOORYAVANSHI has opened to a good start with approximately 35% occupancy. Currently this opening is being attributed to the fact that issues between Reliance and exhibitors led to no advance bookings across major national multiplex chains. However, on the other hand single screens have seen an excellent advance booking rate in certain locations. Currently, the 35% occupancy is based on spot booking for morning shows, with evening and night shows will see a spike in bookings.

 

On the whole, with positive word of mouth, and favourable reviews SOORYAVANSHI looks set to enjoy a stellar opening weekend in theatres. Adding to this, the festive occasion of Diwali and the extended weekend will definitely work wonders for the film’s overall business.
