With its dazzling star cast including Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh, action-packed storyline, and producer-director Rohit Shetty`s Midas touch, Sooryavanshi has lit up the box-office, netting Rs 77.08 crore on the opening weekend. Though the film encountered a minor drop in collections on Saturday, by Sunday, it bounced back and sent off the Diwali weekend with Rs 70-80 crore in its kitty. The story is similar to that of Shetty`s 2017 film "Golmaal Again".
Talking about the impressive numbers, senior trade analyst and film critic Taran Adarsh tweeted: "#Sooryavanshi brings joy, hope, confidence, optimism back… Emerges a #Diwali gift for the industry… RUNS RIOT at #BO on Day 3… Proves *yet again*: Well-made entertainers will NEVER go out of fashion... Fri 26.29 cr, Sat 23.85 cr, Sun 26.94 cr. Total: ₹ 77.08 cr. #India biz."
