Vivek Agnihotri's The Bengal Files was expected to take a slow start at the box office, as it is a film that would grow because of the good reviews and positive word of mouth. The movie on its day one has approximately collected Rs. 1.75 crore.
Vivek Agnihotri's The Bengal Files starring Mithun Chakraborty, Pallavi Joshi, Simratt Kaur, Eklavya Sood, Darshan Kumar, and others was released on Friday. The movie has received mostly positive reviews, and even the word of mouth has good. However, it has taken a slow start at the box office.
According to Sacnilk, the movie on its day one has approximately collected Rs. 1.75 crore. It is not a good number, but it is not even a bad amount for a film like The Bengal Files. It is not massy movie, but a film, which is based on a true incident, and has a lot of violence in it.
The Bengal Files has failed to beat The Kashmir Files at the box office on its day one. The 2022 release had collected Rs. 3.55 crore on its first day, but it showed a huge jump and went to collect Rs. 252.25 crore at the box office.
The Bengal Files Budget
While the makers have not yet officially announced the budget of the film, reportedly, The Bengal Files is made on a budget of Rs. 30-35 crore. It is a mid-budget film, but surely it needs to show a jump at the box office over the weekend, and continue to collect a good amount on weekdays as well.
The Bengal Files Review
The Vivek Agnihotri's directorial has mostly received positive reviews from the critics.
