John Abraham starrer Attack released in theaters yesterday. The film directed by Lakshya Raj Anand introduced the audience to India’s first super soldier. The film also hinted at a sequel by its end where an army of super soldiers would be raised. However, the film has made a slow start at the box-office and needs to be taken well if the sequel is to go ahead.
On its first day, the film starring John Abraham was priced at just Rs. 3.50 crores at the box office. It’s a bad start as the budget of the film was quite good, with all the VFX and special effects. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh mentioned that the film was affected due to SS Rajamouli’s RRR, which is doing tremendously well in BO. The film has not managed to do well in metros as well and needs to improve business on the second day and the third day weekend.
#attack Day 1 is sluggish on … The #RRR The wave in the mass circuit has completely sidelined it while the metros haven’t even acknowledged it… Biz needs to improve on Days 2 and 3 for a respectable weekend… Fri ₹ 3.51 Cr . #India Trade pic.twitter.com/opTYI0FbOo— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) 2 April 2022
Interestingly, this was the same amount that Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files printed on its first day. Obviously, it grew by leaps and bounds soon after its release, and managed to eclipse films like Radhe Shyam and Bachchan Pandey. The Kashmir Files is also a competition of Attack and the film is still maintaining a steady hold at the box-office.
Attack features John as Arjun Shergill, who loses his mobility after an attack and is drafted into the Super Soldier program. He has emerged as the first super soldier of the country who is capable of annihilating armies alone. The film also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Rakul Preet Singh, Prakash Raj, Rajit Kapoor and Elham Ehsaas in pivotal roles. News18’s review of the film read, “Attack was a huge possibility, with great editing and lazy writing. What could have been a gentle and slick action thriller has turned into just another film on the block. Story, to its credit Goes to John, was novel, however, the execution needed to be improved.”
