The film has earned Rs. 8.20 crore.

Film critic and business analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#RakshaBandhan has a disappointing start on Day 1... Mass circuits perform better [good occupancy in evening shows], but metros are extremely weak... Biz needs to grow/jump from Fri-Sun to improve its prospects... Thu ₹ 8.20 cr. #India biz."

Raksha Bandhan, which deals with the dowry system, also stars Sadia Khateeb, Deepika Khanna, Smrithi Srikanth and Sahejmeen Kaur in the lead.
