Salman Khan returned after four years to the big screen in a leading role on Eid with ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.’ The film has managed to collect Rs 15.81 crore on its opening day.
New Delhi: Salman Khan returned after four years to the big screen in a leading role on Eid with ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.’ Despite being a Salman film on Eid, the film has failed to create magic at the box office and has managed to collect Rs 15.81 crore on its opening day. The figure is significantly less compared to Salman’s earlier films that were released during Eid.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter to share the film's opening numbers. He wrote, “#KisiKaBhaiKisiKiJaan is underwhelming on Day 1… More so when one compares it with #SalmanKhan’s #Eid releases from 2010 to 2019… Metros weak, mass pockets better, but not great… Extremely important for biz to jump multi-fold today [#Eid]… Fri ₹ 15.81 cr. #India biz. #KBKJ”

His last Eid release, Bharat, had opened with Rs 42.30 crore.
Though the numbers are disappointing, business is expected to grow on Saturday and Sunday. According to Bollywood Hungama, the film is expected to see a jump of 75-100% over Saturday and Sunday. The report also stated that the mass market had better footfall than multiplexes.
The film features an ensemble cast including Telugu actor Venkatesh, Pooja Hegde, Jagapathi Babu, Bhumika Chawla, Vijender Singh, Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, Jassie Gill, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari and Vinali Bhatnagar.
However, despite an ensemble cast and Salman in the headline, the film would suffer because of its practically non-existent script.
While the Hindi film industry just recovered courtesy films like 'Pathaan', 'Bholaa' and 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar', it will be interesting to see how the success or failure of 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan' reflects on Bollywood.
Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan review
ABP Live’s review of the film reads, “Despite having an impressive cast, the writers scarcely give the characters any soul, leading to a mishmash of characters and flimsy subplots.
The North-meets-South romance barely works due to a handful of amusing moments that naturally fall into place. But for the most part, the narrative's dragged humor makes for some intolerably awful bits. Although the plot matches up to that in several Bollywood flicks in this genre, the well-choreographed action sequences were the film's redeeming grace.
When it comes to the performances, Salman Khan does well in the violent, bloody fight scenes but fumbles in the more nuanced ones. On the other side, Pooja Hedge, who serves a little more than merely a prop, does fairly well in her screen time. As "Rowdy Anna," Daggubati Venkatesh holds the fort for the whole of his screen time, and when Khan's character is in the same frame, he nearly eats him up.” Click here to read the complete review
