The actor has delivered a string of hits without the backing of big production houses or top-ranking directors... It’s the moviegoers who have made him a people's superstar and the BO numbers endorse this fact.”
The opening day collection was shared by Cine1 Studios on its official Twitter page. “Filled with laughter & fear! This complete family entertainer is entertaining all,” the post read.
