Radhe Shyam [hindi] has flopped at the box office. The sheer start of the film was poor (albeit on the expected lines) and with no growth coming on Saturday

the damage is completely done. With just 5 crores coming in, the film now stands at 9.50 crores after two days

[{"selector":"#anim-73d4b1be-5fff-4b52-87af-c523d07fa5f6","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The reason for that is two fold. First and foremost, the film by itself is bad and with or without competition, it would have tanked.

The Kashmir Files is going great guns and that has totally stolen all the thunder. When an underdog beats a mighty opposition

It is running at double the count of screens of The Kashmir Files and its business is lesser than that on the second day.

The best-case scenario for the Prabhas and Pooja Hegde starrer is now to have a weekend of 15 crores and that’s going to be far lesser

than what Saaho had done on its first day in Hindi. The action entertainer had opened quite well to bring in 24 crores on its first day back in 2019

[{"selector":"#anim-16c260fb-a673-43e5-b3da-f41a69abb908","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":3500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Saaho had done on its first day in Hindi. By the look of things, this could well be the lifetime number for the Hindi version of Radhe Shyam.
