Bollywood Shocked With Low Number Of Kesari 2

Bollywood has been going through a tough phase, with only a few movies managing to draw large audiences to theaters. Even star heroes like Akshay Kumar are struggling, with his latest film "Kesari Chapter 2" failing to impress despite positive reviews. The historical drama, starring Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan, and Ananya Panday, saw a steep decline in box office earnings on its fourth day, earning just Rs 4 crore net in India.

Despite receiving unanimous positive reviews and word-of-mouth, "Kesari Chapter 2" has failed to gather higher collections at the box office. The film opened with Rs 7 crore net in India on its opening day and collected Rs 28 crore over the weekend. However, it saw a sharp 61.75% drop in collections on Monday, and achieving Rs 100 crore looks tough for the film. Trade experts are shocked that even good movies like "Kesari Chapter 2" are not saving Akshay Kumar at the box office.

The film has collected just Rs 32+ crore net in India in four days, and its worldwide collection stands at Rs 50 crore gross. Despite its positive response, the film's box office performance has been disappointing. To boost audience numbers, the makers have opted for a lower ticket rate offer of Rs 99, which is unusual for a four-star hero film with positive word-of-mouth.

The struggles of "Kesari Chapter 2" at the box office highlight the challenges faced by Akshay Kumar's films in recent times. Despite his continuous releases, most of his films face a big struggle, and it remains to be seen how "Kesari Chapter 2" performs in the coming weeks. With its ensemble cast and historical significance, the film has the potential to do well, but its box office performance so far has been underwhelming.
