The Salman Khan starring action-packed drama Radhe – Your Most Wanted Bhai was one of the few releases for this holiday season in Gujarat and ran on most theatres for about a week before garnering attention from audiences. However, what made it stand out amongst other releases during this time frame is that due to the infestation of Covid-19, which resulted in no other films being able to reach an audience because they all closed down after 2 days when another Covid-19 outbreak occurred; Radhe managed to stay open an entire month. Instead of giving up or running off like…

A couple of days ago, Bollywood Hungama reported that the collections of Radhe – Your Most Wanted Bhai in the sixth weekend were a measly Rs. 3,661.
