Directed by Karan Lalit Butani, Ruslaan, starring Aayush Sharma and Vidya Malavade, had a disappointing opening weekend, grossing a mere Rs 2 crores. Despite a modest improvement on day 4, collecting Rs 40 lakhs, its overall performance has been lackluster.
With a high production budget and featuring relatively unknown actors, Ruslaan faces a bleak future. Its opening day earnings of only Rs 50 lakhs indicate a limited audience appeal, and its subsequent decline in box office collections suggests that it will struggle to break even theatrically.
Non-theatrical revenue streams may help mitigate the film's financial losses, but the theatrical failure of Ruslaan adds to Aayush Sharma's string of disappointing film performances. His previous releases, Loveyatri and Antim, also underperformed at the box office.
Below is a breakdown of the film's day-wise net collections in India:
- Day 1: Rs 50 lakhsn- Day 2: Rs 70 lakhsn- Day 3: Rs 80 lakhsn- Day 4: Rs 40 lakhsn- Total: Rs 2.40 crores nett in 4 days
Ruslaan follows Ruslaan (Aayush Sharma), the adopted son of a terrorist who is determined to prove his loyalty to India despite his father's actions. He joins forces with Agent Vaani (Sushrii Shreya Mishraa) to uncover a conspiracy threatening the nation's security.
The film is currently playing in theaters, with tickets available for purchase online or at the box office.
