Headlined by Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, the action thriller Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has been a major disappointment and a box office disaster. Made on a humongous budget of Rs 350 crore, the Ali Abbas Zafar directorial has earned only Rs 53 crore in its first ten days of release, as per the entertainment tracking portal Sacnilk.
Bade Miyan Chote Miyan also features Prithviraj Sukumaran, Manushi Chhillar, Alaya F, Sonakshi Sinha, and Ronit Roy in pivotal roles. In a recent interview, Manushi, who is seen doing action stunts as Captain Misha in the film, said that she doesn't think about the box office collection of her films as she doesn't have any control over the same.
Talking to Zoom, the former Miss World said, "As an actor, you want your films to do well. You want people to watch you, to like you, like the film and enjoy and have a good time and feel entertained. Sometimes, it doesn't happen which is completely normal. That's something I have made peace with. For me, the only thing is I need to be doing a good job and exploring new things. I need to also have filmmakers see me do something on screen. So, I think that was my takeaway."
"Box office numbers are something that, as an actor, you don't have any control over so whatever I don't have control of, I don't think much of it", said Manushi, whose all films released before Bade Miyan Chote Miyan - Samrat Prithviraj, The Great Indian Family, and Operation Valentine - have also been massive flops at the box office.
The actress will next be seen in the geopolitical action thriller Tehran, in which she is paired opposite John Abraham. The film has been shot completely and is ready to hit screens soon. Its release date hasn't been announced yet, but as per the recent reports, the makers want to release Tehran in cinemas in May.
