Crossing 100 crore in the fourth week is no joke! Aditya Dhar is proving to be a force in Indian cinema after Uri. This kind of storytelling is what we need.
Respectfully, while the success is great, I hope the hype is about the film's quality and not just star endorsements. Sometimes these social media praises feel like mutual appreciation club. Hope to see it soon and judge for myself!
Love seeing this camaraderie across industries! South and Bollywood stars supporting each other. Maddy's transformation must be something special. Booking tickets now! 🎬
As someone who enjoys Indian cinema, this is exciting. The box office numbers are impressive. A two-part saga suggests a grand vision. Looking forward to its international release.
Bahut badhiya! This is the kind of content that makes us proud. A film with a strong message and stellar performances doing well commercially. Jai Hind!
