Box Office Worldwide shared the fifth-day collection of both films and wrote, "Terrible weekend at #BoxOffice with #LaalSinghChaddha struggle to collect 7.65 cr & #Rakshabandhan fell to 6.10 cr, that too on a national holiday. Tomorrow onwards there will be curtains & neither of the film will hit 75 cr lifetime and That’s SHOCKING! No trade expert proved right, NONE!"
Here's the tweet
Going with this tweet, till now Raksha Bandhan has managed to earn only Rs 34 crores. This is sad news for Bollywood as trade was expecting Akshay and Aamir to revive the box office. The result of these films has sent shockwaves in the industry, and it's high time Bollywood should reassess their calculations.
