'Khel Khel Mein', starring Akshay Kumar, continues to struggle at the box office. On Friday, the film finally managed to make it past the Rs 20 crore mark. Despite a sluggish performance in its first eight days, box office reports suggest that the film failed to gain momentum.
According to Sacnilk, the film earned approximately Rs 70 lakh in India on its ninth day, bringing its total collection to an estimated Rs 20.05 crore. With Rs 19.35 crore amassed in its first week, the movie just managed to pass the Rs 20 crore milestone.
The film recorded an overall 23.74% occupancy for its Hindi shows, with the highest footfalls during the night screenings. Directed by Mudassar Aziz, the film features an ensemble cast including Vaani Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu, Ammy Virk, Fardeen Khan, Pragya Jaiswal, and Aditya Seal.
For Akshay, who has faced a string of box office disappointments in recent years, much was riding on 'Khel Khel Mein'. However, the film is currently among the lowest-performing of his post-pandemic releases.
Despite having several weeks left in its theatrical run, it joins the ranks of other underperforming Akshay films such as 'Sarfira', 'Bellbottom', 'Mission Raniganj', and 'Raksha Bandhan'.
