Raees wins the race from Kaabil in advance booking numbers!

Shah Rukh Khan starrer Raees is all set to take on Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil at the box office. But, it seems that Raees is already on a lead, going by the advance booking numbers. 

The SRK-Mahira Khan starrer has garnered around Rs 12.50 crore nett in advance booking sales while Kaabil is struggling with a Rs 3 crore nett. Trade experts mention that the numbers of Kaabil are even lower than that of a Dishoom. Seemingly, Kaabil did open a little late for advance bookings. But, as per analysts a superstar like Hrithik Roshan should have ideally drawn in more numbers. 

The advance bookings for Dangal, Sultan and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo were 16.5 cr, 21 cr, and 15 cr correspondingly. But, these were Christmas, Eid and Diwali releases.  A good run for Raees and a risky run for Kaabil can apparently thus be predicted given that a good opening was Kaabil's best bet. 


In the meanwhile, let us wait and watch for the box office openings.
