A Box Office India report said that An Action Hero fared poorly with collections of around 1.25 crore nett on the first day. As per the report, earlier this year, an action movie has to appeal to the masses, however, the urban audience is less interested in actions films, until it is a big Hollywood movie.

In terms of collections, Ayushmann Khurrana starrer Anek saw a poor collection too. However, the collections of An Action Hero are far less than that of Anek, which are pretty much bad, as per reports. The report said that the numbers in NCR are better, a common case in every Khurrana starrer.
