Still from Ram Setu and Thank God
Akshay Kumar's much-anticipated action-adventure film, 'Ram Setu', had a grand Diwali release in theatres. The film opened with a bang and raked in â¹ 15.25 cr on its first day. However, the Abhishek Sharma directorial saw a dip in collections on day 2. Despite the fall, the collection remained in double digits as the film collected Rs. 11.4 crores on Wednesday.
On the other hand, Ajay Devgn and Sidharth Malhotra starrer 'Thank God' which released on the same day has had an underwhelming opening at the box office. After collecting Rs. 8 crores at the Box office on opening day, it saw a dip on day 2. The film collected Rs. 6 crores on day 2 bringing its 2-day collection to Rs. 14.1 crore which is less than the opening day collection of Ram Setu.
Meanwhile, Ram Setu which also stars Satyadev, Jacqueline Fernandez and Nushrratt Bharuccha is doing exceptionally well in mass pockets with the evening and night shows being sold out at most places. As family audiences are loving this mix of entertainment along with awareness, it is expected to witness further growth. \
