On the other hand, Akshay Kumar’s Samrat Prithviraj has minted Rs 44 crore in totality and will soon reach the Rs 50 crore mark. However, the movie needs to pick up more pace, given its massive budget of Rs 300 crore. According to a news report in India Today, the period drama saw a decline in its occupancy over its morning shows on its first Monday. The occupancy was just at 9 percent with reportedly some shows also being canceled due to no audience. The film has minted around Rs 4 to 5 crore on its 4th day.
While Major revolves around the heroism and courage of Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan, the hero of 26/11, Samrat Prithviraj chronicles the valor and bravery of Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan. Adivi Sesh’s film has been helmed by Sashi Kiran Tikka while Akshay Kumar starrer has been directed by Dr. Chandraprakash Dwivedi.
