Vicky Kaushal, Ammy Virk and Tripti Dimri seem to have a winner on their hands with Bad Newz. The comedy caper directed by Anand Tiwari has had a good start at the box office. It has collected Rs 8.62 crores on day one in the domestic market. Bad Newz has done slightly more business than Uri: The Surgical Strike and has become Vicky Kaushal’s biggest opener ever. Although the reviews have been mixed, the word of mouth for the film has been quite positive. The youth has been loving the vibe of the film. It has done excellent business in North India. Fans should note that Ammy Virk has a good fan following in Punjab and Delhi.

Back in 2019, Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani’s Good Newwz opened at the box office with Rs 17.56 crores. But back then, the market was totally different before the pandemic. Bad Newz too has started well. The song Tauba Tauba played a huge role in creating buzz for the film. It is a rage on reels. Vicky Kaushal seems to have hit the jackpot with good numbers. Even Zara Hatke Zara Bachke had hits like Tere Vaaste and Phir Aur Kya Chahiye.

In 2018, he scored his first box office hit with Raazi. It grossed over Rs 8 crore on day one. Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal were terrific in Meghana Gulzar’s film. He had also worked with her in Sam Bahadur. Vicky Kaushal was perfect as the late Colonel Sam Manekshaw. It is also a big win for Tripti Dimri. While films like Bulbbul and Qala had established her as a talented performer, Animal made her a star. Tripti Dimri’s scenes with Ranbir Kapoor made her a crowd pleaser. Even in Bad Newsz, she has done a sultry song with Vicky Kaushal in Janam. The film is expected to gross Rs 34 crore over the weekend.
