While the film opened to huge numbers, it was been witnessing a constant drop in its second week. Recently, trade analyst Taran Adarsh also took to X and shared that the Indian collection of the Siddharth Anand directorial is very “shocking”. “The underperformance of #Fighter has sent shock waves within the industry… Imagine, the film ticks all the boxes – right from star names and director’s credentials to tremendous critical acclaim and positive audience feedback… Yet, the dwindling numbers in #India are a complete shocker,” he wrote.
Fighter has a run time of 2 hours and 46 minutes. The Central Board of Film Certification granted a U/A certification to the film. Besides Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone, the film stars Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover, Akshay Oberoi, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Talat Aziz, Pradum Shukla, and Pradum Jaykar in pivotal roles.

News18 gave the film a 4-star rating and said, “Phenomenally entertaining and consistently engaging, Fighter, for all the derivative genre components it compiles, is an action entertainer that crackles with energy.”
