Akshay Kumar's latest film Mission Raniganj continues to struggle at the box office on its second day. After a low opening day, the survival thriller failed to churn out big on Saturday as well. As per Sacnilk, Mission Raniganj minted just Rs 4.70 crore on Saturday, taking the total collection to Rs 7.5 crore after two days.
However, the film witnessed nearly double hike in its collection on Saturday but the figures cannot be considered impressive.
The film is released in cinemas alongside Bhumi Pednekar and Shehnaaz Gill-starrer Thank You For Coming. Despite no other South or Hindi film release, both the films are still struggling to earn big numbers for its producers.
Mission Raniganj's Review
Akshay Kumar does not look like Akshay Kumar in this film. He has worked very hard on the character. From look to language, everything is different. Looking at Akshay Kumar's character in this film, it would not be wrong to say that now Akshay is leaving aside the obsession of box office and focusing on choosing legitimate stories.
