Bollywood News: During festivals in India, theatres get a special glow, and this time too, there is a different zeal and enthusiasm at the box office. This Diwali, many Bollywood stars are ready to rock the theatres with their respective films. While Ajay Devgn's much-awaited film Singham Again is ready for release, on the other hand, Kartik Aaryan's film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is also releasing on Diwali 2024. In the race of these new films, two major films are currently showing their power at the box office—Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video starring Tripti Dimri and Rajkummar Rao in the lead roles, and Alia Bhatt's Jigra.

Let's know who is ahead in the box office competition of these two talented actresses.

Box office performance of Tripti Dimri's Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video

Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video starring Tripti Dimri and Rajkummar Rao is a light-hearted comedy film that has entertained the fans a lot. The film recovered its budget within a week and is now continuously making profits. The budget of the film was Rs 20 crore, and according to the recently released 16-day figures, the film has earned Rs 39 crore, which is double its budget. The film is still collecting more than Rs 1 crore every day, so it is expected that it can cross the 50 crore mark soon. The pairing of Tripti and Rajkumar and the interesting story of the film has kept the audience hooked, and it is continuously growing at the box office.

Box office status of Alia Bhatt's Jigra

The budget of Alia Bhatt's Jigra was around Rs 80 crore, and according to this budget, the film should have earned more than Rs 100 crore. However, the film did not get the success that was expected. In 16 days, Jigra has collected only Rs 30.79 crore, and now it is not able to cross even the Rs 1 crore mark per day. The film has not been as successful as expected in grabbing the attention of the audience, due to which its producers are a little disappointed. Now it remains to be seen how much more the film is able to earn in the remaining days, and whether it is able to come close to its budget.

Alia vs Tripti: Who is ahead in the box office battle?

Alia Bhatt is considered a guarantee of success in Bollywood, and her films usually perform well at the box office. However, in the case of Jigra, this success is not visible. The earnings of this film have not even come close to its budget. On the other hand, Tripti Dimri has won the box office race. Vicky and Vidya's Woh Wala Video is ahead of Alia's Jigra by a margin of Rs 9 crore. Due to this excellent performance, Tripti can be called the new queen of the box office at the moment.

Conclusion

Amid the festive season rush in theatres, Tripti Dimri's film's stellar performance and Alia Bhatt's relatively slow pace have caught the attention of audiences and film critics. The competition is going to increase even more due to the new films coming after Diwali. Currently, Tripti is ruling the box office with the success of her film, and it will be interesting to see how long she is able to maintain this success.
