The film is receiving positive reviews, good word of mouth, keenest and most generous affection and negligible competition from its contemporary release ‘Thackeray‘. The audience is loving Kangana Ranaut‘s performance as the Queen of Jhansi, crisp storyline, with which we all are familiar and the screenplay.
Kangana and Krish have co-directed the film while it is bankrolled by Zee Studios in association with Kamal Jain and Nishant Pitti. The film also stars Ankita Lokhande, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Atul Kulkarni, Jisshu Sengupta, Richard Keep, Suresh Oberoi, and Danny Denzongpa among others.
Delhi / UP and the central markets are giving expected business to the film. But in Mumbai and other parts of South India, the business is little underperformance.
