Mission Raniganj was among the least promoted films of Akshay, and revealing the reason behind it, the actor said in an interview, "I promoted Selfie a lot, but it didn’t work. Promotion is the wrong aspect. I didn’t go anywhere to promote OMG 2. It got word-of-mouth promotion. If I promote the film, people will take it for granted, thinking it’s my job to promote my film. But if somebody else appreciates it and tells them to watch it, they will go and watch the film."

The actor went on to say that it's becoming more of a trend now, and he is doing his job. He also claimed that if he visits a specific city to promote his movie, it will not occur; those are useless. In content-oriented films, movies that combine lots of singing and lots of fighting are distinct from one another and function in a unique fashion. Akshay is applying this knowledge in his current endeavours.

However, Mission Raniganj was a box-office failure.
