Overview
- The film opened in India on August 7 with about Rs 10 lakh on its first day and after two slow weeks began a sharp turnaround from Day 17 as audience recommendations spread.
- Industry trackers report domestic net receipts around Rs 72–73 crore and an India gross near Rs 86 crore by Day 28, numbers that grew through a strong fourth week of shows.
- Exhibitors initially cut the film’s screen and show counts dramatically—Vishal Chaturvedi says shows fell from roughly 250 to 25—before theatres restored and expanded runs after local demand rose.
- Hombale Films announced it will handle overseas distribution through Hombale Overseas and set a worldwide release for September 11, 2026.
- Made for about Rs 1.8–2 crore, the film’s exceptional return has led the director to confirm a sequel as part of a planned trilogy and generated viral, cross‑community moments such as a widely shared clip of a Muslim man watching the film barefoot.
