Doctor G advance reservations: Ayushmann Khurrana’s movie has day one sales of 50 lakh, and the film’s exhibitors believe it will do well.
The movie Doctor G, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, opens in theatres on October 14. The mid-sized movie only wants to have a respectable opening and rely on word-of-mouth marketing rather than competing with some recent blockbusters. In the past, this has been the case with the majority of Ayushmann movies. The movie had sold 50 lakh tickets as of Thursday afternoon for its opening day, and it is expected that number to rise to 75–80 lakh by the day’s end. This raises hopes that the movie will have a respectable opening weekend.
Rakul Preet Singh, Shefali Shah, and Anubhuti Kashyap all appear in the social comedy Doctor G. The movie, a comedy entertainer about a topic taboo, centres on the lone male physician in a gynaecological clinic. It is a perfect fit for Ayushmann.
According to industry sources, by Thursday afternoon, the day one advance booking total for Doctor G had surpassed 50 lakh. They might fall short of the ₹ 1 billion barrier. Trade analysts predict that while the movie might have a strong first day, it will likely fall short of some of Ayushmann’s pre-pandemic hits like Badhaai Ho and Dream Girl, which made between ₹ 7 and ₹ 10 crore on opening day. However, given that the movie received an A and is aimed at youth, not family audience, it is still good signs for the film.
Doctor G might still put up a respectable total. Beyond that, a robust word-of-mouth campaign and favourable reviews might position it for a profitable weekend and a strong lifetime gross. The CEO of PVR Pictures, Kamal Gianchandani, states, “We have witnessed viewers enjoy themselves greatly and laugh out loud during the trailer playouts in theatres, and there is a particular affinity towards an Ayushmann Khurrana picture. We are optimistic that he is back with a bang, paving the way for more similarly high-concept films given how the advance bookings have started off with respectable numbers when compared to other mid-budget movies.
Exhibitors are hoping that the movie would end the year-long curse on mid-sized Hindi films. With the notable exception of The Kashmir Files, most box office-successful Hindi films have been big-budget productions. According to Devang Sampat, CEO of Cinepolis, “We have gotten a great response from the Doctor G teaser and are hopeful that this movie will change the course of mid-size films, which have suffered in recent years. The amount of advance reservations we are now seeing is a step in the right direction.

Celebrations have already kicked off, and stunning pandals are being set up for the celebrations.
Ramakrishna Math puja
The special attraction at Ramakrishna Math, Nirala Nagar will be the Kumari Puja i.e., in which the deity will be invoked in six year old girl who will be worshipped as Devi Durga. It will be held on Ashtami day at 9:30 am that falls on Friday, October 11. Swami Muktinathananda, Adhyaksha of Ramakrishna Math said, “It symbolises the special presence of the Divine Mother within every woman and aims to infuse a sense of respect and dignity to be accorded to the entire womanhood.” The climax of the Durga puja celebration, however, is the Sandhi Puja. It comprises the last 24 minutes of Ashtami and the first 24 minutes of Navami tithi.
Oldest puja at Bengali Club
The 110-year-old Durga puja celebrations at the Bengali Club are a must-see. It is the city’s first and oldest Sarwajanik Durga Puja, started by Atul Krishna Sinha who moved to the city in 1901. In 1914 he started Durga Puja at Bengali Club, says club’s president Arun Kumar Banerjee. In the lead-up to Durga puja, the Ladies’ wing organised Ananda Mela, inaugurated by principal secretary Leena Johri. The special attraction at Bengali Club this year will be Sandhi puja on Friday morning (October 11), on Maha Ashtami.
Shri Ram temple replica at Sahara Estate
The two-decade-old puja at Jankipuram will feature a replica of the Shri Ram Temple from Ayodhya. A life-sized idol of Ram Lalla will also be placed along with the idol of Maa Durga. Dhakhis (traditional drummers) from Bengal will perform, and a series of cultural programmes will also be showcased throughout the festivities.
“The artists from Kolkata have spared no effort in capturing the grandeur of the original, and devotees are in for a truly divine experience at the pandal this year,” said Ram Avatar Pandey, president of Sadbhavna Sanskritik Samiti.
St. Peter’s Basilica at Model House
At the Model House Park, an idol of Goddess Durga, carved in the monolithic style reminiscent of Ajanta sculptures, will be worshipped. The exterior of the pandal is inspired by the grandeur of St Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. The Mitro Sangho Puja committee is marking its 50th year of celebrations this year. The 15-feet tall idol is made by artistes from Bengal. The structure will be 70-feet tall.
Ram Leela pandal at LPRSS
The Latouche Road Puja Sangsad Society has themed their pandal on Ram Leela. SK Banerjee, the president of the society, informed that the entire pandal will be transformed into a grand pictorial representation from the Ramayana.
The interiors of the pandal are designed with 20-foot-tall replicas of heritage buildings and arched gates, resembling those in Ayodhya. The idols will also be adorned in traditional Ram Leela attire and ornaments. Additionally, live performances will be held to enhance the festive atmosphere.
Trans-Gomti Puja
Renowned sculptor Abhijeet Biswas has crafted the Ma Durga idol in the traditional “Aadi Bangla” style in Varanasi, with final touches applied in Lucknow. “In line with tradition, five kinds of clays — Ganga, Shamshan, Tulsi, Goshalar and Devimandir mati — have been used in creating the protima of Maa Durga. The celebrations started with Anando Mela at the puja pandal today,” informed its communication secretary Tuhin Banerjee.
