February 17, 2025: Badass Ravi Kumar Struggles Amidst Box Office Competition
Himesh Reshammiya’s spoof-actioner Badass Ravi Kumar is nearing the end of its theatrical run, as Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava and Hollywood biggie Captain America: Brave New World take over screens.
The film, directed by Keith Gomes, had an encouraging opening with ₹2.75 crore, thanks to subsidized ticket prices, but it failed to sustain momentum. By the end of its first weekend, the film had collected ₹6.25 crore, and the first-week total remained under ₹8 crore.
Now in its second week, the box office trends suggest that Badass Ravi Kumar will wrap up under ₹10 crore net, making it one of the weakest performers among recent Bollywood releases.

Will OTT Turn the Game for Badass Ravi Kumar?
While Badass Ravi Kumar underperformed in theaters, Himesh Reshammiya has managed to recover production costs through non-theatrical rights deals. The film’s quirky dialogues and over-the-top action sequences have gained traction on social media, making it a potential hit on streaming platforms.
The makers are expected to announce the film’s OTT release date soon, where it might find a cult following among Himesh Reshammiya fans.
