Bell Bottom Box Office Prediction: Will Akshay's Film Rake In Big Numbers With No Release In Maharashtra?

Earlier in a group interaction with reporters, Akshay had opened up on if he is worried about the film's box office collection as it isn't releasing in states like Maharashtra due to cinema halls being shut because of COVID-19 pandemic.

The superstar had said, "The pressure is that Maharashtra is still closed and 30 per cent of the money comes from Maharashtra. And because only 50 per cent occupancy is allowed so half of the rest of the 70 per cent share is also gone. But we have to take a risk. I am keeping my fingers crossed."

Helmed by Ranjit M Tewari, Bell Bottom revolves around a RAW agent who is entrusted with the responsibility of rescuing hostages from an hijacked Indian plane. The film also stars Vaani Kapoor, Lara Dutta and Huma Qureshi in pivotal roles.
