The box office collection of Yudhra, directed by Ravi Udyawar and starring Siddhant Chaturvedi, Malavika Mohanan, Raghav Juyal, and Ram Kapoor, dropped massively on its second day. The action film fell flat on Saturday after an impressive opening day, courtesy of National Cinema Day.
Bankrolled by Excel Entertainment, the much-delayed action movie Yudhra finally released this weekend. The Ravi Udyawar-directed film opened with a decent Rs 4.25 crore net at the Indian box office, thanks to subsidized ticket prices on the occasion of National Cinema Day, where ticket fares were deducted to Rs 99 nationwide.
Yudhra faced a major dent because of the blockbuster wave of Stree 2, which is still doing phenomenal business. The action movie couldn’t match with the 6th weekend collection of Shraddha Kapoor starrer and sealed itself a sorry fate.
The action drama faced a major drop of 55% and could collect Rs 2 crore net on its second day, which is again lower than Stree 2‘s collection of 37th day. The two-day total cume of Yudhra has reached Rs 6.25 crore net in India.
The Siddhant Chaturvedi film met with mixed to negative word of mouth, which has almost locked its fate. Although the makers have already cracked a good non-theatrical deal by selling its music and digital rights, that should recover its production cost. But that is not going to change its verdict in any way.
To attain a favorable verdict, the movie has to pick up on the third day, i.e., Sunday, and then hold steady during the weekdays to earn a respectable total of around Rs 50 crore by the end of its theatrical run in India. However, it seems a little difficult since the movie will face a tough competitor in the name of Devara from September 27.
