Khel Khel Mein, starring Akshay Kumar, Vaani Kapoor, Ammy Virk, Taapsee Pannu, Fardeen Khan, Aditya Seal, and Pragya Jaiswal, has underperformed at the box office. The audience seemed in no mood to watch the comedy-drama and rather preferred to watch the horror-comedy Stree 2. Keep reading to know more!

The film’s release on August 15, which coincided with the Independence Day weekend, seems to have been a strategic misstep. The decision to engage in a box office clash during this period backfired, as it was overshadowed by the massive success and fervent anticipation surrounding the release of Stree 2, starring Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Abhishek Banerjee, Pankaj Tripathi, and Aparshakti Khurana. If Khel Khel Mein had been released solo, it may have had a better chance of achieving higher box office numbers.

The movie closed its first week (8 days) at approximately 20 crores net India. While Khel Khel Mein’s domestic performance was underwhelming, its overseas collections were also disappointing. The film managed to gross only around 7 crore internationally, bringing its worldwide total to 30.6 crore after adding 23.6 India gross.
