Selfiee, also starring Emraan Hashmi, managed to earn only Rs 2.55 crore
at the ticket counters on its opening day.
Each of actor Akshay Kumar’s 2022 theatrical releases — Ram Setu,
Raksha Bandhan, Samrat Prithviraj, Bachchhan Paandey — tanked at the box
office, but at least they had solid openings. However, the same cannot be
said of the actor’s latest film, Selfiee. The film had a poorer start than
last week’s flop, Kartik Aaryan’s Shehzada, on its first Friday. The Kartik
Aaryan film earned Rs 6 crore on its first day of release.Industry tracker Sacnilk said that the film registered overall
occupancy of only 9.95%. The figure is even lower than what trade experts
had conservatively predicted ahead of the film’s release.
Film producer Girish Johar, had predicted that the film’s opening day
collection would fall somewhere between Rs 4 crore and 5 crore. The last
time that an Akshay Kumar film had an opening of less than Rs 5 cr was in
2010.
