The pre-booking of "Singham Returns" in Hyderabad also started with full swing. The night shows have received overwhelming response in the city, compared to morning shows. 

In Bangalore the response is not as phenomenal as Mumbai, Pune and NCR region, but the occupancy is expected to increase.

Overall, looking at the pre-booking status, it looks like that the film is set to collect whopping amount on first day. And with long weekend, the film has very good chance of pulling crowds to it to put up a solid weekend.

The film is a sequel of 2011 hit movie "Singham" which did very well at the box office and the same is expected from "Singham Returns". The buzz surrounding the film is very strong, which will help the opening day collection.

Also, the theatrical trailer release of "Happy New Year" will boost the opening day box office collection. But the Saturday and Sunday collection will depend more on reviews and word of mouth.

"Singham Returns" is an action drama film and marks the return of hit jodi Rohit Shetty and Devgn. The actor director duo has previously given hit films including "Golmaal" series, "Bol Bachchan" and "Singham".
