The action-comedy Sooryavanshi was released last week and has been doing brisk business at the box office. Starring Akshay Kumar – who also directs it – this comedy flick is all everyone can talk about since its announcement. With Bollywood films banned from theaters after the pandemic lockdown, this movie has been the most anticipated one in recent history for many people. And now that it finally came out, all eyes are on how well it does.
This box office report compares the first week collection of our film Sooryavanshi to that of renowned producer/director Rohit Shetty. As for Sooryvanshi, it managed to gross Rs. 77.08 crore in its opening weekend, which ranks lower than some other blockbusters produced by him like Chennai Express (100.42 crore), Golmaal Again (87.60 cr) and Singham Returns (77.69 cr). On the other hand, this movie managed to outperform the success of the director’s previous failures such as Simmba (75.11cr), Dilwale (65 crores), Bol Bachchan (43 crores) and Golmaal 3 which made only 33 crore after release!
All things considered, when it comes down to it – given this situation along with overwhelmingly good reception from audiences and critiques – Sooryavanshi will see a tremendous increase in revenue through further earnings in the next few weeks!
