Himesh Reshammiya’s Badass Ravi Kumar is proving to be a hit among its target audience, maintaining a steady pace at the box office. After a strong start, the film continues to perform well during weekdays, surpassing expectations despite discounted ticket rates. Notably, on its fifth day, the film crossed the lifetime collection of Karzzzz, becoming Himesh’s fourth highest-grossing film.
A Smart Pricing Strategy Pays Off
Right from the start, the makers adopted an affordable ticket pricing strategy, ensuring that more people could watch the film. The approach worked, as the movie opened with a solid ₹3.52 crore—marking Himesh Reshammiya’s biggest opening to date. Even with further reductions in ticket prices on weekdays, the film has managed to sustain its momentum.
Day 5 Box Office Collection
On its fifth day, Badass Ravi Kumar collected ₹99 lakh, showing a minor drop of just 6.60% compared to day 4’s ₹1.06 crore. With this, the total domestic collection now stands at ₹11.77 crore. The film is expected to maintain its hold over the next two days, likely closing its first-week run with over ₹13 crore.

Day 1: ₹3.52 crore
Day 2: ₹3.34 crore
Day 3: ₹2.86 crore

Surpasses Karzzzz, Eyes Aap Ka Surroor
With its current earnings, Badass Ravi Kumar has officially surpassed Karzzzz (₹10.33 crore) to become Himesh’s fourth highest-grossing film. Next in line is Aap Ka Surroor, which earned ₹12.43 crore— a milestone the film is likely to cross soon.
A Game-Changer for Bollywood?
