I think you can save it because those guys are pretty forgiving. Just do the things I always recommend…

Use a chunky soil mix

Only water when it’s dry. I use moisture indicator sticks and they work really well for me.

Fertilize as directed.

It looks like it’s in a wonderful place in the winter there as long as the sun never shines straight on it. Direct Sun could be too much for it.

the leaves are almost crispy, would they bounce back ?

I agree with this comment. They are pretty resilient. They will off some leaves when stressed, but reward you with some new ones. I would be patient.

I would remove the ones that are most crispy, but keep the least crispy ones.

Give it time, it’s likely in shock from transit. Water as appropriate, don’t over or under water. It’ll bounce back.
