Tiger Shroff’s much-awaited action thriller Baaghi 4 has witnessed a modest yet promising start in advance ticket bookings. As of the morning of September 3, 2025, advance sales stood at around ₹1.19 crore gross, inclusive of block seats totaling approximately ₹2.73 crore for its opening day. Meanwhile, dedicated industry tracker Sacnilk confirms a similar trend on its platform.
Advantage Over Competitors
Despite a cautious opening, Baaghi 4 is outperforming comparable releases. On BookMyShow, the film registered around 39.9 thousand tickets sold on Day 1, marking a remarkable 320 percent higher at par with Housefull 5’s pre-sale numbers. Koimoi further highlights that this puts the film among the top 10 advance pre-sales of 2025 on the platform so far.
Sales Momentum Builds
Several outlets report a steady upward trajectory: Zee News notes that over 53,663 tickets have been sold already, while Outlook India puts the advance booking tally close to 60,000 tickets, translating to ₹1.32 crore gross (excluding block seats) and ₹2.91 crore with block seats for Day 1. This sustained growth underlines growing audience interest.
Can Baaghi 4 Push the Baaghi Franchise Past ₹500 Crore?
The Baaghi franchise has amassed approximately ₹428 crore across its first three installments. Trade analysts estimate that Baaghi 4 would need approximately ₹70 crore from its domestic box office to breach the ₹500 crore milestone. Though the advance booking figures currently fall short of this target, positive word-of-mouth and expanding screens as the weekend approaches could close that gap.
A-Certification Adds a Dark Edge
Departing from its predecessors, Baaghi 4 carries an ‘A’ certificate, a first for the franchise, due to its strong violence and mature content. This marks a tonal shift, aligning with trade expectations of a grittier, more intense narrative that may appeal more to adult audiences.
Star Power and Cast Dynamics
The film sees Tiger Shroff reprising his iconic role as Ronnie, now pitted against Sanjay Dutt. The cast is rounded out by the dynamic presence of Sonam Bajwa and newcomer Harnaaz Sandhu, the latter making her Bollywood debut. The duo’s dynamic and the Shroff–Dutt showdown are already being pitched as key pull factors for audiences.
Looking Ahead to Release—September 5
With the theatrical release slated for September 5, 2025, Baaghi 4 is counting on its last 48 hours of advance booking to boost numbers further. Trade experts caution that although the opening is likely to be modest compared to earlier franchise heights, effective marketing and early audience reactions could help turn the tide.
