Trade experts discuss postponement of Son Of Sardaar 2 due to the Saiyaara wave: “Very good business call by Ajay Devgn…I don’t think we should be doubting his judgment… post-Covid, he has one of the BEST track records in Bollywood

Bollywood Hungama was one of the first to share that the movie Son Of Sardaar 2 has been delayed from July 25 to August 1. This decision came from the team behind the Ajay Devgn film after the movie Saiyaara did really well at the box office. It started strong and then kept growing on the second day. Because of this, the makers of Son Of Sardaar 2 decided to move the release date by a week. Trade experts praised Ajay Devgn and Jio Studios for this smart move. 

Vishek Chauhan, who owns a cinema in Purnia, Bihar, said, “Ajay Devgn made a smart call. 

He knows how to run a film in Mumbai. That’s why he understands business better than most. I don’t think we should doubt his judgment. When he saw that a film with a non-star cast was doing so well, he realized the second weekend might be even better. He also thought that Son Of Sardaar 2 needed more single screens than multiplexes. If it had been released on July 25, it would have struggled with show-sharing in single screens. That would have caused problems for the target audience. So, this is a great decision. Business decisions should be made without ego. ” 

He added, “It was Ajay’s money at risk. 

People on Twitter are just giving advice. They won’t understand until they put their money on the line and compete with a film like Saiyaara. Also, don’t forget that after the pandemic, Ajay has the best track record in Bollywood with movies like Drishyam 2, Raid 2, Shaitaan, and Singham Again. ” 

He continued, “Now that Son Of Sardaar 2 is coming out on August 1, it will get enough single screens. 

If it had been on July 25, I wouldn’t have been able to show it. The same problem would have been in many other places in Bihar. ” 

Trade veteran Taran Adarsh agreed, “It’s a wise decision. 

He realized the situation and postponed the release. Now, Dhadak 2 is also coming out on the same day as Son Of Sardaar 2. Both are franchises. We’ll see what happens. Dhadak 2 is another love story, like Saiyaara. ” 

He said, “They have less than two weeks to do well, since War 2 comes on a Thursday (August 14). 

Still, there’s time for good content. This week’s releases include The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Mahavatar Narsimha. But I can’t deny that Saiyaara’s success is very strong. ” 

Trade analyst Atul Mohan also said, “Yes, it’s a smart decision. 

But when a big movie with a big star like Ajay Devgn is pushed back, it might not look good. But from a business angle, it makes sense. Now, it will be between Saiyaara and War 2. They have only two weeks instead of three. But a 14-day window is still enough to make an impact at the box office. ”
