Sarfira, the upcoming movie starring Akshay Kumar, is set to hit the theaters on July 12, 2024. Directed by Sudha Kongara and produced by Vikram Malhotra, the film is based on the life of G R Gopinath. The Central Board of Film Certification has certified the film as U/A with a run time of 2 hours and 35 minutes. The distributor, Pen Marudhar, is focusing on a multiplex release due to the film’s drama genre and it is expected to release on nearly 2500 screens. The advance booking details of Sarfira paint a dull picture, with only around 4000 tickets sold in the top 3 national chains as of Thursday afternoon. This is in line with films like Mission Raniganj and Selfiee. The pre-sales are indicative of a lack of interest in the film, with a slow start anticipated on the opening day, estimated around Rs 3.50 crore. The movie faces a challenge in attracting audiences to theaters, especially with the trend of South films being widely available on digital platforms post-pandemic. Despite the pre-sales numbers, initial reports for Sarfira are positive, as the original Tamil film was well received by audiences. The film stars Radhikka Madan, Paresh Rawal, and has a cameo appearance by Tamil superstar Suriya. Early reviews from a preview screening and the CBFC suggest that Sarfira is a sure-shot winner, with fans praising Akshay Kumar’s performance and the overall quality of the movie. As the release date approaches, it remains to be seen how Sarfira performs at the box office, especially with competition from other releases like Indian 2. With positive early reviews and a strong fan response, the film is poised to make a mark in the industry.
