In India, the first day collections of Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan are a bit underwhelming as the film has collected ₹15.81 crore domestically. It became Salman’s second lowest Eid ticket in nearly a decade. It remains to be seen whether the film can take advantage of the Eid holiday weekend and gain some momentum.
Led by Salman, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan also stars Venkatesh Daggubati, Pooja Hegde, Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, Jassie Gill, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari, Vinali Bhatnagar, Vijender Singh, Jagapathi Babuwla and Bhumi. The film has been loosely adapted from Ajith starrer Veeram (2014).
