Jaat Advance Booking Collection Day 1 Update: Sunny Deol’s Thriller Faces Tough Competition Ahead of Release

The excitement is building up as Sunny Deol's much-anticipated film Jaat gears up for its release on April 10, 2025. Directed by Gopichand Malineni, the thriller drama has been generating buzz, especially with the collaboration between Malineni, making his Bollywood debut, and the ever-popular Sunny Deol. The film’s storyline, set in a remote coastal village, revolves around the notorious criminal Varadaraja Ranatunga, adding layers of suspense and intrigue.

However, the competition is fierce at the box office. With Salman Khan's Sikandar already making waves in the advance booking phase, questions arise about whether Jaat will be able to match up to its rivals. As we dive into the Day 1 advance booking collections of Jaat, let's take a closer look at how it is performing before its official release.

Jaat’s Day 1 Advance Booking Collection So Far

According to Sacnilk's latest report, Jaat has grossed approximately Rs. 68.89 Lakhs in advance bookings on Day 1. As of now, around 40,000 tickets have been sold, which is a solid start but falls short when compared to some of the industry's big hitters.

Notably, Jaat has already generated Rs. 2.78 Crore from the blocked seats, a sign of significant pre-release demand. However, Jaat has a long way to go to match Sikandar's performance in advance bookings. Salman Khan's action-packed entertainer grossed Rs. 10.09 Crore in advance bookings, setting a high bar for Jaat.

Highest Advance Bookings in Delhi

When looking at the geographical distribution of Jaat’s advance booking, Delhi emerges as the frontrunner. The capital has made a gross collection of Rs. 8.25 Lakhs and Rs. 35.17 Lakhs from blocked seats, leading the charge in terms of demand for the film. This could point to a strong audience base in the region, which could contribute to a significant opening day box office collection.

Day 1 Box Office Prediction for Jaat

As Jaat inches closer to its official release, all eyes are now on its first-day box office collection. Trade analyst Akshaye Rathi, speaking to Times Now, suggests that the film could mint somewhere around Rs. 10 Crore on its opening day. According to Rathi, Jaat is packed with the typical elements of a commercial masala entertainer, featuring a mix of action, drama, and high theatrical value—qualities that the director, Gopichand Malineni, and production company Mythri Movie Makers are well known for.

Rathi further added, “I wouldn’t be surprised if Jaat opens with a collection of Rs. 10 Crore, or possibly even more.” Given its genre, the film is expected to appeal to a wide audience, especially fans of masala entertainers, which could result in a strong opening weekend at the box office.

Jaat's Star-Studded Cast & Crew

Jaat brings together a talented ensemble cast, led by none other than the action icon Sunny Deol. He is joined by Randeep Hooda, Regina Cassandra, Vineet Kumar Singh, and Saiyami Kher, all of whom are expected to deliver compelling performances.

The film’s dialogues are penned by Sai Madhav Burra and Saurabh Gupta, adding a distinct flair to the narrative. With Gopichand Malineni at the helm, who is well known in the Tollywood industry for his success with commercial entertainers, Jaat aims to deliver a blend of action, suspense, and drama that could capture the audience’s imagination.

Jaat's Budget and Box Office Hopes

Jaat is reportedly made on a hefty budget of Rs. 100 Crore, which sets high expectations for its box office performance. With such a significant investment, the question remains: Will Jaat manage to recover its production costs at the box office and surpass the Rs. 100 Crore mark? Given the strong pre-release buzz and the substantial fan following of the lead actors, there is a strong possibility for Jaat to hit this target.

However, as with any big release, the success of the film will depend on several factors, including audience reception, critical reviews, and competition from other major films. With Sikandar already creating a storm in the box office space, it remains to be seen if Jaat will be able to carve its own niche in the crowded landscape.

Will Jaat Be a Box Office Winner?

As the excitement builds ahead of Jaat’s release, the advance booking numbers tell an intriguing story. While the film’s Day 1 collections indicate solid interest, it still faces stiff competition from established stars like Salman Khan. However, with the right blend of masala, action, and drama, coupled with the star power of Sunny Deol and Randeep Hooda, Jaat has the potential to make a mark at the box office. Whether it can surpass its competitors and recoup its budget remains to be seen, but all eyes will be on the box office performance when Jaat officially releases tomorrow.
