Badass Ravi Kumar Box office day 1 collection: Himesh Reshammiya beats Junaid Khan-Khushi Kapoor’s Loveyapa with almost 50 percent margin

Badass Ravi Kumar Box Office Day 1 Collection: When Himesh Reshammiya announced his return to the big screen with a film expanding his Xposé universe, fans eagerly awaited its release. While expectations weren’t set for a groundbreaking film, the movie has still managed to perform well. Although its opening numbers are not as high as estimated, they are strong enough for a decent run, considering its budget and return on investment. Interestingly, Badass Ravi Kumar has outperformed Loveyapa, starring Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor.

Badass Ravi Kumar Box Office Performance

Directed by Keith Gomes and co-written by Himesh Reshammiya, Badass Ravi Kumar serves as a flamboyant spin-off to his 2014 film The Xposé. Produced under his banner, the film also features Prabhu Deva, Kirti Kulhari, Sanjay Mishra, and Johnny Lever in key roles. According to Sacnilk, the film has secured a better opening than Loveyapa, emerging with decent numbers for its scale. 

On its first day, Badass Ravi Kumar earned ₹2.49 crore at the domestic box office, surpassing Loveyapa, which managed ₹1.33 crore. This means Badass Ravi Kumar collected almost 50% more than the Advait Chandan directorial. However, to sustain its momentum, the film will need to maintain strong box office performance in the coming days. With other films like Sky Force, Emergency, and Interstellar (re-release) competing for screens, the weekend numbers will be crucial.
