National Chains Advance Booking Report : 120 Bahadur & Mastiii 4 Headed for a Slow Start, Early Sales Hover Around 2,000 Tickets in National Chains
Despite promotions and franchise familiarity, both 120 Bahadur and Mastiii 4 are showing tepid early traction at the box office. As of now, combined advance bookings across national chains stand at approximately 2,000 tickets, with overall presales expected to settle in the 10,000–12,000 range by the first show indicating limited audience interest ahead of release.
The two films cater to distinctly different audience segments:
- 120 Bahadur, a war drama led by Farhan Akhtar with a patriotic tone, has been marketed for several months and is primarily targeting multiplex circuits.
- Mastiii 4, by contrast, is aimed at the mass-market single-screen crowd a sector that has drastically shrunk over the years. The Masti franchise had successful entries earlier, though Great Grand Masti struggled at the box office. The latest instalment attempts to revive both the brand and adult comedy genre.
With ticket sales muted and no signs of substantial momentum yet, both films are expected to rely heavily on word-of-mouth and spot bookings. Mastiii 4 may find a slight advantage with walk-in audiences on Friday.
Day 1 Box Office Outlook (Combined Estimates):
- Opening Range: ₹3–5 Crore each
- Advance Tickets Sold So Far: ~2,000 (national chains)
- Projected Closure: 10,000–12,000 tickets before release
Unless there's a late surge or strong post-release word-of-mouth, Friday is likely to remain lukewarm for both releases.
