Akshay Kumar and Parineeti Chopra’s much-anticipated movie, Mission Raniganj was launched on Friday. According to a report printed by Box Office India, the film has collected roughly Rs 7 crore to date. On its opening day, the movie minted roughly Rs 2. 75 crore. Impressively, on day 2, Mission Raniganj witnessed a big surge in its collections. The movie noticed a 55 per cent improve and picked up Rs 4.25 crore. As per the report, “Despite the main character of the film being a Sikh the film is scoring lesser numbers in East Punjab than Fukrey 3 which is in week two. Both Friday and Saturday were lower and east Punjab is not there for a sardar film then it is practically impossible in Maharashtra, West Bengal and Nizam / Andhra. The Sunday is likely to be affected by the cricket match between India and Australia.”

Mission Raniganj, directed by Tinu Suresh Desai, narrates the story of late mining engineer Jaswant Singh Gill, who led the heroic coal mine rescue mission and helped the miners trapped inside a flooded coal mine in Raniganj in November 1989.

As per commerce analyst Taran Adarsh, Mission Raniganj is “impactful”. He gave the film a stable 4-star score. The critic lauded the undertaking for its “gripping narrative, nail-biting moments, and a breathtaking finale.” Additionally, he counseled the performances of Akshay Kumar and Ravi Kishan. 

Posting the assessment on X (previously often known as Twitter), Taran Adarsh wrote, “An edge-of-the-seat rescue thriller that leaves a solid impact… Gripping narrative, nail-biting moments and a breathtaking finale, this is an inspirational film that deserves a watch… #AkshayKumar brilliant, #RaviKishan excels. #MissionRaniganjReview Needs a strong word of mouth to make an impact at the #BO.”
