Box Office Debut:
Opening day collections: Approximately Rs 2.40 crore (net).
Akshay’s lowest opening since 2009’s “8X10 Tasveer.”
Falls short of mid-pandemic releases like “Mission Raniganj” and “BellBottom.”
Despite widespread critical acclaim for #Sarfira, its opening day box office collection was a mere 2 crore. This stark contrast highlights a serious disconnect, suggesting that critics may have lost their credibility with audiences.#SarfiraInTheatres pic.twitter.com/hqsiNuoYKa
