Akshay Kumar’s Ram Setu and Ajay Devgn and Sidharth Malhotra’s Thank God has got a good start at the box office. Akshay’s Ram Setu has become the second-highest opener for a Hindi film in 2022, earning Rs 15.25 crores at the box office on Day 1 of its release. The film also makes it Akshay’s biggest opening of the year. Ram Setu also stars Satyadev, Jacqueline Fernandez and Nushrratt Bharuccha and is doing exceptionally well in mass pockets with the evening and night shows being sold out at most places.

The film is being appreciated for being an entertainer for the entire family and is expected to witness further growth in the coming days. The story of Ram Setu revolves around an atheist archaeologist turned believer, Dr. Aryan Kulshrestha (Akshay Kumar), who must race against time to prove the true existence of the legendary Ram Setu before evil forces destroy the pillar of India’s heritage.

#RamSetu starts well on Day 1 [#Diwali], especially in mass pockets… Average at bigger centres/metros… The biggg holiday has given it a head start and it’s crucial to maintain the momentum in the long, *extended* weekend… Tue 15.25 cr. #India biz. pic.twitter.com/R9Is6ZHIA4
