Ram Setu has earned Akshay Kumar his biggest opener of 2022. This comes as a huge relief for the actor who hasn’t had a good year, with most of his releases including Bachchhan Paandey, Raksha Bandhan and Samrat Prithviraj tanking at the box office. Ram Setu has also become the second highest opener for a Hindi film in 2022, only behind Brahmastra Part 1: Shiva.
The film is said to have performed well in mass pockets like Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Ram Setu revolves around an archaeologist who is working to investigate the nature of the Ram Setu bridge to figure out if it is a myth or a reality. It is Produced by Prime Video alongside Cape of Good Films, Abundantia Entertainment, and Lyca Productions. Directed by Abhishek Sharma, the film hit theatres on October 24.

Ram Setu was released alongside Thank God, which stars Sidharth Malhotra, Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh. In a recent interview with Hindustan Times, Akshay Kumar opened up on Ram Setu’s clash with Thank God. He said, “There is no clash. Let’s not refer to it as that. They are two films, with different appeals, releasing on the same day. It’s happened in the past and it will happen in the future. Fans will choose to watch the one that appeals to them the most or better still, watch both. The main objective is for our fans to enjoy the festival at the movies with friends and family."
