Talking to indianexpress.com, Girish said, “Set against the devastating 2013 Uttarakhand floods, Kedarnath is a fictitious love story and this genre has always clicked with the audience. So, it is expected to pull people and earn Rs 5-6 crore on the day of its release.”
Mentioning the factors that will help Kedarnath, Johar added, “Sushant and Sara are the driving force of the film. While Sushant is on his way to becoming one of the superstars of the country, Sara is also an aspiring star. She has been a big craze among the youth. So, going by the buzz around the film and its trailer, it appears Sushant and Sara are the driving force of Kedarnath.”
Currently, last weeks release 2.0 featuring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar is running successfully in theaters. It has saved the year with its shining performance at the ticket counters after the debacle of Thugs of Hindostan. So, will 2.0s phenomenal run affect Kedarnaths earnings or will it survive the competition from the Rajinikanth starrer?

“2.0 will only affect Kedarnath if its content is weak. It will sail through with good content. But the fall will be drastic because people have another option in 2.0. The same thing happened with Thugs of Hindostan and Badhaai Ho,” replied Girish Johar.
