BMCM opened to a lacklustre response from audiences
Accumulated Rs 41-42 crores net during its opening week
Produced by Pooja Entertainment, headed by Vashu Bhagnani
The recent release, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, featuring the dynamic duo of Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff and directed by Ali Abbas opened to a lacklustre response from audiences.
Despite its star-studded cast and the anticipation it garnered, the film’s box office journey began with a lukewarm response, accumulating an estimated ₹41-42 crores net during its opening week.
Produced by Pooja Entertainment, headed by Vashu Bhagnani and his son Jackky Bhagnani, the film’s budget reportedly soared to a staggering ₹350 crores. While it’s projected to cross the ₹100 crore mark, profitability remains a question.

Pooja Entertainment, a banner with a rich three-decade history in the film industry, has been known for its blockbuster hits like Coolie No. 1, Hero No. 1, Biwi No. 1, and the original Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. However, the last notable success was Mujhe Kuchh Kehna Hai in 2001, a remake of Pawan Kalyan’s Tholi Prema. Since then, the production house has released over 25 films but hasn’t seen the earlier success.
Despite this, the production house’s spirit remains undeterred as they continue to invest in high-budget films. The recent performances of Ganapath and the latest Bade Miyan Chote Miyan have not dampened their spirit. The industry and audiences alike are curious about how Pooja Entertainment is sustaining itself with 25 flops so far —a narrative only the production house can fully articulate.
