The well-known actress from the Hindi cinema business said how much she enjoyed working with Vijay and called the South star “the best performer.” Giving an overview of their working relationship, she expressed her appreciation, saying, “We had a lot of conversation and Sriram Sir allowed the actors a lot of room before the shoot. What I saw between Vijay and my character when I viewed the outcome surprised me.”Vijay returned the favour by praising Katrina’s cooperative and accepting attitude on set as well as her prior expertise in the business. The actor remembered, “I met her first in Sriram sir’s office and there was such a healthy conversation as soon as she entered the office,” during a press conference. She like to talk and listen more. On the set, there was more understanding between us. I learnt and gained so much from her.”The stars of B-town, including Vicky Kaushal, Sunny Kaushal, Sharvari Wagh, Neha Dhupia, Kabir Khan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Ananya Panday, Radhika Madan, Shanaya Kapoor, and Khushi Kapoor, attended the star-studded premiere organised by the creators before to the film’s January 12 release. Originally scheduled for release in December, the film’s advertising campaign included catchy posters, an interesting trailer, and catchy songs. The most recent addition was the heartfelt romantic love ballad ‘Raat Akeli Thi,’ which was released online on Wednesday.The box office performance is now expected to be highly anticipated; preliminary estimates suggest that it will bring in Rs 2 crore (net) on its first day in both languages in India. Interestingly, there’s talk that Katrina Kaif’s performance would be remembered as a pivotal one, breaking the record for her worst opening in 10 years, which is now held by her 2022 film “Phone Bhoot.”A further level of suspense is added by the film’s release date, given the historical difficulties connected to January premieres.
Even though many first-time January releases over the last 15 years have failed at the box office, there is still optimism for “Merry Christmas” as it stands as a single release thanks to films like Vicky Kaushal’s “Uri: The Surgical Strike” and Ajay Devgn’s “Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior.” With this placement, the movie may be able to capitalise on favourable word-of-mouth and have a strong opening weekend and prolonged theatrical run.
