Box Office Prediction: Why Cheat India Starring Emraan Hashmi To Garner Rs 3.5-4 Crore On Premiere

The movie Why Cheat India starring the actor Emraan Hashmi has its premiere today. Referring to the prominent issue in Indian society - the corruption in the education system, Bollywood business analysts are looking forward to an optimistic box-office beginning for the movie.

With the movie's mention of the hot matter, the audience's positive reception on its trailer as well as Emraan Hashmi's comeback, Girish Johar, a trade analyst, forecasts that Why Cheat India with a budget of 20 crores will rake in Rs 3.5-4 crore on its first day. Girish said,

Why Cheat India premieres in the period when two other hit movies were in theatres - Uri: The Surgical Strike starring Vicky Kaushal and Simmba featuring Ranveer Singh. However, Girish believes that the two blockbusters will not affect Why Cheat India's box-office receipts. Conversely, it is the film's content which is the decisive factor in its success. The trade analyst said:

In the meantime, Why Cheat India's filmmakers including T-Series, Emraan Hashmi Films and Ellipsis Entertainment have disclosed that the film is an active collaboration owing to the pre-launch profits earned from its non-theatrical copyrights' sale.

Emraan Hashmi's movie will face intense competition from this week's three other launches including Fraud Saiyyan, Rangeela Raja and Bombairiya. Why Cheat India is still the audience's top priority as the remaining three films are predicted to collect less than 1 crore. Nonetheless, “if it doesn’t have a positive word of mouth, people might shift to the other three films,” said Girish.
