He also compared Sooryavanshi with Akshay Kumar’s previous hits to underline that the film is doing much better than the pre-Covid earnings given many states are still functioning at 50 per cent occupancy in theatres. “AkshayKumar opening weekend * biz…2019: #Kesari ₹ 78.07 cr [#Holi; Thu-Sun; 4 days] 2019: #HF4 ₹ 53.22 cr [pre-#Diwali; Fri-Sun; 3 days] 2019: #GoodNewwz ₹ 65.99 cr [Fri-Sun; 3 days] Medium star if #Sooryavanshi nears ₹ 80 cr [+/-] mark in *3 days, it will be MASSIVE,” Taran wrote.

Directed by Shetty, Sooryavanshi is the fourth iteration in the cop universe. Other than Akshay playing a police officer, the film also had cameos from Ajay Devgn’s Singham and Ranveer Singh’s Simmba. The film was delayed multiple times due to Covid-19 related lockdowns. The makers steadfastly refused to take the OTT route, insisting that the film was essentially a big screen experience.
