Released on 25th January, 'Fighter' quickly became the first hit of 2024 and earned praises for its high-octane action sequences, compelling narrative, and stellar performances. Roshan and Padukone's sizzling chemistry was a highlight, with their dynamic pairing hailed as one of the most exciting of the year. The film's success was further bolstered by its strong performance on OTT platforms, where it achieved over 12 million views within 10 days of its release, and maintained a top spot in India's streaming charts.
While other big releases hit theaters, none could dethrone 'Fighter' from its top position. Trade analysts and netizens have argued that 'Fighter' deserved more recognition upon its theatrical release, given its remarkable achievements.
As 'Fighter' continues to draw audiences, Siddharth Anand is already gearing up for his next projects. He has teamed up with Saif Ali Khan for 'Jewel Thief', directed by Robbie Grewal, and is also set to produce Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film 'King'.
