Record-breaking Collaboration:
The collaboration between Prabhas and Prashanth Neel has already set records even before the grand release, creating immense buzz and anticipation among audiences. Salaar Part 1 – Ceasefire has captured attention with its promise of a larger-than-life action spectacle, prompting an extraordinary advance booking response. The decision to split the story into two parts underscores the magnitude of the narrative, hinting at a cinematic journey that transcends conventional boundaries.
Christmas Weekend Box Office Domination:
Salaar’s dominance at the box office is evident during the Christmas vacation and an extended weekend. The film’s success is particularly notable in Hindi-speaking regions, where it has witnessed a doubling of occupancy ratios after the first weekend. In a surprising turn of events, Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki has received a lukewarm response, providing Salaar with an additional advantage.
