Overview
- The film, which opened July 3, recorded a net Day 1 collection of roughly ₹40 lakh across about 778 shows, according to box‑office trackers.
- Critics widely praise Huma Qureshi’s performance as a deaf-and-mute contract killer while calling out predictable plotting, uneven pacing and convenience in the screenplay.
- Co-producer Saqib Saleem publicly said the Saleem Siblings’ independent release did not get proper showcasing, blaming limited distribution muscle for part of the weak start.
- Promotional moves included a recreated classic song, playful references to rival film Alpha and Huma Qureshi’s on-the-ground theatre visits to build word-of-mouth after release.
- With unofficial budget estimates cited around ₹22–25 crore and a major July 3 release opposite Alpha, the film faces an uphill path to recovery and will depend on weekend turnout and sustained audience buzz.
