The new releases could not do much as 120 BAHADUR collected 2 crore nett while MASTIII 4 collected around 2.25 crore nett. Basically both films are likely to be second best on Saturday to DE DE PYAAR DE 2.

MASTIII 4 got slightly better numbers due to the wider release and generally most of the mass territories got higher numbers. But a film like this has to open much better as growth won't come as these circuits will not go up by much. Considering the fate of the last film of the series, it was always going to be tough. Hence, there was no need for another film but it gets made due to the rebate.

120 BAHADUR can get some good growth on Saturday as its a gentry film but the opening is insanely low for a film of this budget. So, it will hardly matter unless its multi fold growth which is unlikely. The same director had another film DHAAKAD (2022) which also had a big mounting and it went badly wrong. Its another dull Friday with only KANTARA: A LEGEND – CHAPTER 1 and EK DEEWANE KI DEEWANIYAT saving the last quarter and another handful of releases to come till the end of the year.
