Taapsee Pannu is seen playing the role of former Indian women’s cricket team captain Mithali Raj in Shabaash Mithu. The film was released in theatres on July 15, 2022. Shabaash Mithu has garnered a lot of positive reviews from the audience. However, the movie failed to witness a huge footfall in cinema halls. Directed by filmmaker Srijit Mukherji and written by Priya Aven, Shabaash Mithu is a coming-of-age story of women’s cricket in India through the lenses of Mithali.

SHABAASH MITHU BOX OFFICE COLLECTION

As per early estimates, Shabaash Mithu collected less than a crore on day 1 of its release. The first-day collection for the film stands at around 0.80 crore, which is less than Hit: The First Case starring Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra. Both the films were released on the same day.

TAAPSEE TOOK INSPIRATION FROM CHAK DE

Earlier, during an interview, Taapsee Pannu mentioned that she took inspiration from Shah Rukh Khan’s Chak De for Shabaash Mithu. ” For Shabaash Mithu especially, there were so many times I used to tell my colleagues, the girls who were acting with me, that we should watch Chak De before we started filming our climax to get into that zone. That really helps,” she told IndiaToday.in, in an exclusive chat.

Hit: The First Case stars Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra. The film has garnered a positive response. However, it is off to a poor start at the box office.

Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra star together for the first time in Hit: The First Case. The film hit the theatres on July 15, 2022.

HIT THE FIRST CASE BOX OFFICE COLLECTION

As per the early records available from trade analysts, the Rajkummar Rao starrer had an opening day of Rs. 1.40 crore (approx). The figure is less than Rajkummar’s last release, Badhaai Do [also starring Bhumi Pednekar], which collected approximately Rs 1.60 crore on day 1 of its release. However, the film has done better business than Taapsee Pannu’s Shabaash Mithu.

ABOUT HIT THE FIRST CASE

The film is an official Hindi remake of a 2020 Telugu language film of the same name. The Telugu film was produced by Prashanti Tipirneni and starred Vishwak Sen and Ruhani Sharma. The Hindi remake has been produced by T-Series’ Bhushan Kumar, Dil Raju, Krishan Kumar, and Kuldeep Rathore. The Telugu film will see a second part soon.

In Hit: The First Case, Rajkummar plays the role of a police officer who suffers from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). The actor has been garnering a lot of praise for his performance. About performing scenes involving PTSD, Rajkummar told IndiaToday.in that it took a mental toll on him. He shared, “it did get mentally very taxing, and physically also, because there were scenes which were pretty long. And you can’t just be like doing ‘ha ha hee hee’, and then action and you’re in that zone. So for me, especially while shooting such scenes, I need to prepare.
