Ruslaan Box Office Day 2: Aayush Sharma’s Film Mints Rs 85 Lakhs On Second Day, Crosses Rs 1 Crore

Aayush Sharma’s highly anticipated film Ruslaan released on Friday and has finally managed to cross the Rs 1 crore mark after showing good growth in second-day sales. According to a report in Sacknilk, the film minted Rs 85 lakhs at the ticket window. The overall collection of the film now stands at Rs 1.40 crore.

Helmed by Karan Lalit Butani, the film also stars Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Jagapathi Babu, and Vidya Malvade. The report also stated that the action entertainer had an overall occupancy of 6.81 per cent in the Hindi belts.

Sancilk.com also reported that the film had an occupancy of 5.29 percent during the morning shows on its second day. It increased to over 6.81 percent in the afternoon and then to 5.45 percent during the evening. The night shows had an occupancy of 9.70 per cent. The film also saw the largest audiences in the theatres in Chennai, followed by Bhopal and Bengaluru.

News18 Showsha gave the film 3.5 stars and wrote, “The film revolves around Ruslaan, who sees his father being killed in an encounter after he’s accused of planting bombs in a school in Mumbai. In the same encounter, his mother also dies. An orphan named Ruslaan gets bullied at school for being the son of a terrorist and eventually gets adopted by the anti-terrorism squad chief, Sameer Singh, and his wife. As he grows up, his foster father cautions him about not picking up arms or joining the forces but pursuing his passion for music.”

Speaking of Aayush’s performance, the review added, “Aayush gives the film his all, and yet he’s effortless. There’s a certain kind of charm and restraint underneath all that rugged rawness, and he deserves brownie points. However, his performance in bits and pieces also reminds you of Salman. A heavy hangover there may sometimes rob him of his individuality.”

“In short, it’s the performance by the primary cast that elevates this otherwise messy narrative. Ruslaan bears a testament to Aayush’s growth as an actor, as he ably manages to put up a one-man show rather effortlessly. It might not be a flawless film that keeps you glued, but it definitely makes for an entertaining watch (for the most part). If you don’t rely too much on logic and rationality, you might actually appreciate its absurdity.”
