Bollywood has been seeing a very tough phase for a while, as only a few movies are bringing higher numbers of audiences to the theaters. Even Star Hero’s films are struggling to bring audiences, and especially Akshay Kumar is struggling very badly in this regard. Even good movies like Kesari Chapter 2 are not saving Akshay Kumar at the box office.
The actor, fondly called Khiladi by his fans, continuously releases films, but most of them face a big struggle despite receiving positive WOM. Akshay’s latest release, Kesari Chapter Two, received unanimous positive reviews and WOM.
Despite getting a positive response and having a sequel advantage, the film fails to gather higher collections at the box office. The film opened with 7 Cr net in India on the opening day, and on the weekend it had a decent jump and collected 28 Cr.
However, on the 1st weekday, it could only gather 3.5-4 Cr net, which is definitely a disappointing number for the talk it received. For 4 days, the film has collected just 32 Cr net in India, and with this, achieving 100 Cr also looks very tough for the film. The trade experts are in shock as even good movies like Kesari Chapter 2 are not saving Akshay Kumar at the box office.
With no option left, the makers of Kesari 2 opt for a lower ticket rate offer. To bring in a big number of audiences, Dharma Productions banner opts for Rs.99 tickets from today, Tuesday, which is shocking for a four-star hero film with positive WOM. This shows how big Akshay’s films are struggling to impress audiences.
