Ranveer Singh starrer that released on December 24, was made with a grand budget of 280 crores and could only manage to score INR 52 crores in total until Monday.

As per the movie analysts, the biopic that required the opening of INR 150 crore, failed the goal and is not expected to pick any further following the orders of closure of cinemas from the Indian government in the wake of rising COVID-19 cases in the country.
