As he EXCLUSIVELY told us, “Akshay may not have entered the Rs 200 crore club coz of a single film yet but his films release at regular intervals (every 3-4 months) and earn almost Rs 80-90 crore each”.

100 crore is now no more a benchmark for this Zee Studios and KriArj Entertainment film since Rustom is looking at a much bigger haul ahead.
“Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted on Thursday, “#Rustom Fri 14.11 cr, Sat 16.43 cr, Sun 19.88 cr, Monday 17.81 cr, Tue 7.67 cr, Wednesday 6.38 cr.
With no real outside challenge, Akshay Kumar is now battling with his own records.
Akshay Kumar’s magic worked third time this year! Rustom would be Kumar’s sixth film to enter the club after Airlift, Housefull 3, Rowdy Rathore, Housefull 2 and Holiday. Today, it will beat the opening week collections of Airlift to become the highest opening week grosser for Akshay Kumar. Giving it a helping hand is the fact that today (Thursday) is Rakhi festival day and it is a holiday. Though Hrithik Roshan’s Mohenjo Daro was released along with Rustom, the latter managed to outpace the former in the box office battle. The movie is directed by Tinu Suresh Desai and actress Illeana D’Cruz and Esha Gupta played the female lead role.
Even with all the expected thrill fizzing away in the second half of the movie, film critics and movie reviewers have stated that the character of Commander Rustom Pavris is one of the best performances of Akshay Kumar. Do not give it a word clash.
