Varun Dhawan won hearts with October. Can Alia Bhatt create magic with Raazi?
With just two days to go for the upcoming movie Raazi to hit the cinemas, fans are brimming with excitement. An unusual treat from the house of Dharma Productions, Raazi is an espionage thriller starring Alia Bhatt & Vicky Kaushal in the lead role. Inspired from the real-life events, the film is an adaptation of Harinder Sikka’s novel Calling Sehmat. Alia Bhatt will be seen essaying the role of Sehmat who is married to a Pakistani man (played by the talented Vicky Kaushal).
Alia Bhatt’s last release was the 2017 flick Badrinath Ki Dulhania opposite Varun Dhawan. Varun’s latest film October proved to be one of the most successful films of the actor in terms of acting. However, the film didn’t do much business at the box-office as compared to Varun’s commercial successes such as Judwaa 2.
When it comes to Alia Bhatt starrer Raazi, if the word of mouth is good, then the film might go on to earn somewhere between Rs 5 to 7 crore on the first day of its opening.
Meanwhile, the Varun Dhawan and Banita Sandhu starrer October minted a little less than Rs 45 crore in its run of two weeks. Interestingly named, the movie October saw Shoojit Sarkar at the helm as director while the script has been written by Juhi Chaturvedi.
Raazi promises to be a nail-biting spy thriller. While there are many reasons why we can’t wait for the movie to releasee on May 11, we need to wait and see whether the Alia Bhatt starrer will create magic among the audience and at the box-office.
