Sonchiriya: From Kai Po Che to Kedarnath, Here's Sushant Singh Rajput's Box-Office Report Card for the Last Six Years
Before Sonchiriya hits the screens, let's go back in time to study Sushant Singh Rajput's performance at the box office.
Sushant Singh Rajput forayed into Bollywood with Abhishek Kapoor's Kai Po Che in 2013. The movie was adapted from Chetan Bhagat's novel, 3 Mistakes of My Life and also starred Amit Sadh and Rajkummar Rao in the lead role. He was the new found talent in Bollywood and critics had some high hopes pinned on his acting calibre and movie choices. From marking a great debut to bagging a biopic on star batsman, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and later witnessing slight criticism for Raabta, Sushant's career graph so far, was nothing short of a roller coaster ride. However, that's a thing of the past and he'd wish to let bygones be bygones (well, at least for the average ones). Sushant Singh Rajput's Instagram Post is All About Love and Luck to Ex-Girlfriend, Kriti Sanon's Luka Chuppi.
The actor is currently gearing up for his next release, Sonchiriya that revolves around the dacoit era in India. While the trailer looked promising and intriguing, box office success will depend on the performance of its competitor, Luka Chuppi. And since we already uttered the 'BO' word, it would be wise to go back in time and study Sushant's previous records at the box office. From Kai Po Che to Kedarnath, let's analyse the total collections and his biggest hits so far... Sonchiriya First Reviews OUT! Sushant Singh Rajput and Bhumi Pednekar’s Dacoit Drama Gets Big Praise From Critics!
Kai Po Che - Rs 43.58 crore
Shuddh Desi Romance - Rs 46.26 crore
Detective Byomkesh Bakshy - Rs 26.21 crore
M.S.Dhoni - The Untold Story - Rs 119 crore
Raabta - Rs 21.68c crore
Kedarnath - Rs 70 crore
Sushant's Sonchiriya will have to beat M.S.Dhoni - The Untold Story to become his highest grosser. There's no buzz around this upcoming release and that may work against the actor. However, being optimistic does no harm, right? Let's hope the movie earns some great reviews and its good word of mouth is able to create wonders at the box office. Coming to his next releases, the actor has Drive, Chhichhore, and Dil Bechara in his kitty.
