Why is Badass Ravikumar Struggling?

• Stiff Competition: The release of Chhaava has completely sidelined Badass Ravikumar.
• Drop in Audience Interest: After its opening weekend, the film saw a 60%+ drop in collections.
• Other Releases: The re-release of Sanam Teri Kasam and Junaid Khan-Khushi Kapoor’s Loveyapa have also added to the competition.
• Niche Appeal: While the film was promoted as a throwback to 80s Bollywood action films, it failed to connect with mass audiences beyond Himesh’s fan base.

Trade Experts React: “Masaledar but Niche”

Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh gave the movie 3.5 stars, calling it:

“A wild, crazy, over-the-top ride that transports you to the cinema of 1980s… Don’t ask questions or look for logic… Extra points for its high-energy songs and seetimaar dialogues.”

However, despite this retro appeal, the film has failed to sustain box office numbers.

What’s Next for Badass Ravikumar?

• With a sharp decline in daily earnings, the film might struggle to cross ₹12 crore lifetime.
• If it continues at this rate, it could exit theatres in its second week unless there is a weekend recovery.
