‘Rs 1.5 to Rs 2 crore?’ Trade Anaylst sums up Emergency vs Azaad Box Office clash
January 15, 2025 | by Deshvidesh News

New Delhi: Kangana Ranaut’s much-awaited biopic Emergency is finally set to hit theatres on January 17. Directed by the actress herself, the film delves into the controversial period of Emergency imposed by former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
However, the film will face tough competition at the box office clashing with Azaad, a period drama starring Ajay Devgn, his nephew Aaman Devgn, and Raveena Tandon’s daughter Rasha Thadani.
Emergency vs Azaad
Trade analyst Girish Wankhede has shared his thoughts on the upcoming box office clash, and the outlook isn’t exactly rosy for either film. According to him, despite Kangana’s star power, the buzz surrounding Emergency has significantly dwindled due to multiple delays and postponements.
“I think that the film’s opening day collection will fall within the range of Rs 1.5 to Rs 2 crore. This projection reflects the current sentiment surrounding the film, which is not expected to generate a significant buzz or draw large crowds to theatres,” he told News9.

Azaad Box Office prediction
On the other hand, Azaad, which marks the debut of Aaman Devgn and Rasha Thadani, also struggles to generate significant buzz. Directed by Abhishek Kapoor and set in the 1920s pre-independence era, the film has yet to impress audiences with its music or the chemistry between its lead actors. Similar to Emergency, Girish expects Azaad’s opening day collection to fall within the Rs 1.5 to Rs 2 crore range.

“While the film has the potential to attract attention due to its fresh cast, the chemistry between the leads has not proven strong enough to reignite audience interest in cinema. Additionally, the music for Azaad has not gained traction, which is often a crucial element in generating pre-release excitement and drawing viewers to theatres,” he concluded.
With both films facing an uphill battle at the box office, it remains to be seen which one will outshine the other.
