Aayush Sharma’s ‘Ruslaan,’ Despite Positive Reviews and Salman Khan’s Support, Disappoints at Box Office

Aayush Sharma’s latest action film, ‘Ruslaan,’ has opened to a disappointing start at the box office. Despite positive reviews and support from Salman Khan, the film has struggled to surpass the Rs 1 crore daily mark, with its highest recorded earning being around Rs 79 lakh.

Directed by Karan Butani, ‘Ruslaan’ stars Aayush Sharma in the lead alongside Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Jagapati Babu, and Vidya Malvade. The film faced fierce competition from the Ajay Devgn-starrer ‘Maidaan’, which emerged as the highest-earning film of the weekend with an estimated box office collection of Rs 4.15 crore on its third weekend.

Despite opening to positive reviews and Salman Khan’s endorsement, ‘Ruslaan’ has underperformed compared to Aayush Sharma’s previous films, ‘Love Yatri’ and ‘Antim’, which recorded higher box office openings. ‘Ruslaan’ is estimated to have earned around Rs 2 crore on its opening weekend against a reported budget of Rs 20 crore.

Aayush Sharma’s Journey from Background Dancer to Bollywood Star

Aayush Sharma, who made his Bollywood debut in ‘Love Yatri,’ recently revealed that he was a background dancer in Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone’s ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.’ He shared that he initially aspired to become an assistant director or casting director to gain access to film sets. Aayush also recalled an audition where a director rudely asked him to leave. Despite these setbacks, he persevered and has now established himself as a leading actor in Bollywood.
