Himesh Reshammiya’s latest movie, Badass Ravi Kumar, had a below-average opening at the Indian box office. As suggested by the posters and trailers, the film takes viewers back to the 1980s. If you’re a fan of 1980s masala films or Himesh Reshammiya, this movie may appeal to you. Being a low-budget production, it has a good chance of recovering its costs from the theatrical run; however, its success will rely heavily on its performance over the weekend. Some critics have given positive reviews for the movie, while others have criticized it for being a brainless flick. Audience ratings are decent, so it now comes down to Himesh’s fans to determine whether the film will be a hit or a flop.
The film was announced in November 2022, with production starting in September 2023 and wrapping up in February 2024. It was released on February 7, 2025, in Indian cinema screens.
