Akshay Kumar-starrer ‘Ram Setu’ released in cinemas on October 25, 2022. The film, which clashed with Sidharth Malhotra and Ajay Devgn-starrer ‘Thank God’ emerged as Akshay Kumar’s highest first day grosser of 2022.
‘Ram Setu’ is Akshay Kumar’s fourth release of the year. With ‘Bachchhan Panday’, ‘Raksha Bandhan’ and ‘Samrat Prithviraj’ failing to make a mark at the box office, expectations were high from the action-adventure film.
