    'The Nun II' fights for screens amid SRK's 'Jawan' release

    What's the story

    Mark your calendars as Shah Rukh Khan gears up to make a powerful impact with his upcoming film Jawan—scheduled to release on Thursday (September 7).

    On the very same day, Warner Bros.'s The Nun II is poised for its theatrical debut in India.

    However, the film is facing stiff competition for screen allotment as theaters are prioritizing SRK's Jawan.

    As this fierce battle for screens unfolds, let's delve into all the details you need to know about The Nun II.

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    The Nun II has the potential to perform well at the box office, as anticipated by trade analysts.

    The previous installment, The Nun (2018), collected Rs. 8cr on day one and witnessed lifetime earnings of Rs. 46.46cr in India.

    Similarly, Evil Dead Rise—also backed by Warner Bros.—clashed with Salman Khan's Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan in April and collected Rs. 36.5cr.

    So, while single-screens have no choice but to play Jawan, multiplexes should consider releasing The Nun II, too.

    Warner Bros. asking for limited shows: Report

    A report by Bollywood Hungama quoted a source as saying, "Warner Bros. team is in constant touch with the multiplex chain and other theaters. They are aware that Jawan is a very big opposition. Hence, they are asking for limited shows. Even then, many theater owners don't seem interested."

    Another source reportedly stated that The Nun II will likely secure a minimum of 1,000 screens, and the situation should be resolved in a few days.
