Raashii Khanna: 'I don't think Yodha is a bad film, its destiny, you learn from it'

Sidharth Malhotra, Raashii Khanna and Disha Patani starrer Yodha released on the big screens on March 15. The film didn’t perform as expected at the box office and so Khanna recently opened up on the poor performance of the film.

“Maybe there's somebody who loves it, then somebody who hates it. There'll always be all kinds of people, but obviously, we want, when the film is released, a lot of people should like it. I think the challenge has been to bring them to theatres still, because now everyone knows that the film will be released on OTT. So that is a challenge that even people face. I also sometimes do it, but that's also because I am always occupied. But I know people, in general, are very occupied today, so bringing them to theatres is a problem. I don't think Yodha is a bad film at all, so that's fine. I think every film has its destiny, and you just learn from it and then move on to your next. That's all we can do.”

Khanna also shared that she is happy with the reactions she received for her role in the film, “You love the fact that it has received love because that's what you work so hard for. But apart from that, my job is always to deliver my best and to see that the audience is enjoying my part as well. Because if a film works, but you don't work, then that's sad in a way. So I'm really happy with the reactions I'm getting. I'm really happy that people are really loving me, coming back into Hindi films, and seeing me on the big screen. I was also very, very happy to see myself on the big screen in Hindi. This is amazing. It was a very nice moment and a very nice feeling that I had,” she added.

Yodha is produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta, and Shashank Khaitan. The film recorded Rs. 34.4 crores in three weeks of its release. Yodha will premiere on Amazon Prime Video after its theatrical run.
