Will Amitabh Bachchan be able to stop the storm of ‘Baahubali 2’ at the box office?

SS Rajamouli’s ‘Baahubali 2 – The Conclusion’, which had released on April 28, has taken box office by storm. The film has broken every possible record, and just the Hindi version of the film, has collected Rs 357 crore in 12 days. In its second week, the film is collecting an amount that nowadays many big films even fail to collect in its first weekend. This Friday, the film will complete two weeks of its release, and no other film was slated to hit the screens after ‘Baahubali 2’ released.

However now, on May 12, there are two films that will be hitting the screens, ‘Sarkar 3’ and ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’. Well, ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ might turn out to be a sleeper hit, but we surely have a huge expectation from ‘Sarkar 3’ as it stars none other than megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role.

The Ram Gopal Varma’s directorial is the third instalment of the ‘Sarkar’ franchise. The first two films in the series had proved to be a hit at the box office, so it will be interesting to see if the third one too will manage to make a mark. However, it may also be difficult for ‘Sarkar 3’ to sustain at the box office as ‘Baahubali 2’ seems to be in no mood to slow down. But, then it will be interesting to see if Amitabh Bachchan, who has many blockbusters in his name, will be able to stop the storm of ‘Baahubali 2’ at the box office.
