Strategic Insights

Nishaanchi, a film directed by Anurag Kashyap, has faced a challenge at the box office with its opening figures indicating a severe impact from its clash with Jolly LLB 3. Despite receiving positive reviews from critics, the film earned just Rs 25 lakh on its release day, which is a mere 2 percent of Jolly LLB 3's collection of Rs 12.5 crore. The discrepancy in the number of shows screened, with Nishaanchi being given 807 shows across India compared to Jolly LLB 3's over 4000, further highlights the disparity.
