Ruslaan's Performance on Box Office

Ayush Sharma's latest action-packed venture, "Ruslaan," has hit the big screens, showcasing the actor in a spectacular new avatar. With anticipation building around the film, there's curiosity whether Ayush Sharma, Salman Khan's brother-in-law, can break free from the tag of past flops. Here's a glimpse into the film's Day 1 box office performance.

Expectations and Day 1 Figures

Initial projections hinted at a strong start for "Ruslaan," with estimates ranging from Rs 2 to 3 crores for its opening day collection. However, according to Sacknilk, as of 11 pm, the film had only amassed Rs 60 lakh. These figures remain subject to change pending the final tally. Notably, "Ruslaan" was crafted on a budget of Rs 25 crores.

Facing Competition

"Ruslaan" finds itself amidst stiff competition from other releases like "Do Aur Do Pyaar" and "LSD 2" at the box office. Yet, neither of these films has managed to make a significant impact, with both struggling to attract audiences. Joining Ayush Sharma in the cast are notable stars like Ms. Mishra, Vidya Maldave, and Jagapati Babu. Ayush Sharma underwent a stunning physical transformation for his role in this film helmed by Karan Bhutani.

Weekend Prospects

Despite its blend of action and romance, "Ruslaan" has received a mixed response from critics. Given its modest Day 1 earnings, it appears unlikely to rake in substantial returns over the weekend. This marks Ayush Sharma's third outing on the big screen following "Antim: The Final" and "Loveyatri," both of which were commercial disappointments.
