As per Sacnilk.com, the movie managed to rake in Rs 4.30 crore in India net on its opening day across all languages, according to early estimates. This figure hints at a slow start for the movie despite being backed by Rajinikanth's special appearance.
Starring Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth in leading roles, the sports drama genre, a perennial favourite among audiences, added to the hype and made fans throng to the theatres as evident in the early reviews of the film by the audiences. Fans gave a good word for the movie because of its important message on religious harmony.
While the initial reception indicates a slow yet decent start for 'Lal Salaam', its true test lies in sustaining audience interest in the coming days. The film's success will likely hinge on its ability to maintain momentum amidst the weekday hustle and bustle.
