17th October 2023, Mumbai: While ‘Mission Raniganj’ managed to garner decent earnings on its second Sunday, the film’s box office performance dwindled once again on its second Monday. With 11 days since its release, the movie has yet to achieve the much-anticipated 30 crore rupees mark. Let’s delve into the collection details of ‘Mission Raniganj’ and explore why it has not met the revenue expectations.
Mission Raniganj Earnings Decline Continues
Akshay Kumar’s ‘Mission Raniganj: The Great Bharat Rescue,’ a cinematic retelling of the real-life hero Jaswant Singh Gill’s remarkable rescue of 65 miners trapped in a flooded coal mine in Raniganj, West Bengal, failed to generate the box office frenzy its subject matter deserved. In the shadow of other recent film releases, ‘Mission Raniganj’ struggled to make its mark. The film has now entered its second week, and its box office performance remains far from spectacular.
Mission Raniganj Lackluster Weekend Collections
Over the weekend, ‘Mission Raniganj’ managed to accumulate approximately 5 crore rupees in India. However, on its 10th day in theaters, which was the second Sunday following its release, the film only added 2.75 crore rupees to its earnings. These numbers set the stage for the box office report on the film’s 11th day since release.
Mission Raniganj’s 11th Day Box Office Figures
‘Mission Raniganj’ generated a mere 65 lakh rupees on its 11th day after its release. This means that the film’s total earnings over the course of 11 days have now reached 28.25 crore rupees. The movie has been unable to break the 30 crore rupees barrier, which is indicative of its challenging box office journey.
‘Mission Raniganj’: Another Box Office Setback for Akshay Kumar
With 11 days at the box office and an earnings figure below 30 crores, ‘Mission Raniganj’ has joined the ranks of Akshay Kumar’s films that faced box office disappointment. The pace of the movie’s earnings does not bode well for its long-term prospects. Despite the powerful narrative of human resilience, determination, and engineering ingenuity at its core, ‘Mission Raniganj’ has not resonated as expected with the audience, cementing its status as another box office setback in Akshay Kumar’s career.
Mission Raniganj’s Cast
Apart from Akshay Kumar and Parineeti Chopra, ‘Mission Raniganj’ boasts an ensemble cast that includes notable actors such as Kumud Mishra, Pawan Malhotra, Ravi Kishan, Varun Badola, Divyendu Bhattacharya, Rajesh Sharma, Virendra Saxena, Shishir Sharma, Anant Mahadevan, Jamil Khan, Sudhir Pandey, Bachan Pachera, Mukesh Bhatt, and Omkar Das Manikpuri.
