`An Action Hero` was expected to open at Rs 3-4 crore, but it could not tear through the grip of the Ajay Devgn-starrer `Drishyam 2` on the box office. And the score cranked up by Drishyam 2` is on its third Friday.

The just-released Ayushmann Khurrana-led theatrical film, `An Action Hero`, has joined the list of movies registering a dismal opening-day turnout. The film, helmed by debutant director Anirudh Iyer, netted a paltry Rs 1.25 crore on Day 1 of its release, according to Box Office India.
The actor had a grand debut in 2012 with `Vicky Donor`, and has since then delivered hit films such as `Badhaai Ho`, `Dream Girl` and `Bala`, as well as the critically acclaimed `Article 15` and `Bareilly Ki Barfi`. But his recent releases -- `Doctor G`, `Anek` and `Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui` -- have all come and gone, impressing neither critics, nor audiences.
