Rajkummar Rao-led Prahaar: The Untold Story of Ujjwal Nikam, aka Prahaar, was expected to do well in the long run, but unfortunately it didn’t, as word-of-mouth was average. Based on Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam’s role in legal battles surrounding the 1993 Bombay bombings and 2008 Mumbai attacks, the film couldn’t pique audience interest and found no takers at the worldwide box office. With Ramayana releasing on Thursday (November 5), it technically wrapped up its run.
The biographical legal drama was released theatrically on October 16, 2026. It opened to decent-to-average reviews from critics. Rajkummar Rao and Lalit Prabhakar were praised for their performances, while the film, as a whole, received criticism for its uneven screenplay and pacing issues. Among audiences, it failed to create any urgency.
How much did Prahaar earn at the worldwide box office?
Prahaar finished its domestic run with 23.82 crore net, which equals 28.11 crore gross. Overseas, too, it was a passable affair, with a 3.03 crore gross. Overall, the closing worldwide box office collection stands at 31.14 crore gross. Considering Maddock Films’ banner, the total came as a shocker.
