Akshay Kumar’s latest release Raksha Bandhan has failed to impress the audience. According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film made Rs 8.2 crore on day one of release. It has released along with Laal Singh Chaddha. The Indian Express’ Shubhra Gupta gave the film 1.5 stars, and wrote, “Do the filmmakers truly believe that such low-rent family dramas, with their uneasy mix of humour and crassness, is the way out for a beleaguered Bollywood?”
