The reality will be clear Monday. Until then its all noise in the media.

Of course it will collect money. Some of my folks have seen it... the movie is decent and she is first rate.

Watched it

Decent movie

kangana is absolutely brilliant. So is shahid

Saif was not upto the mark and hardly has a role to talk about

The movie belongs to kangana and shahid

VB did a good job at direction

i enjoyed it

Rangoon First Day Business

Saturday 25 February 2017 11.30 IST

Box Office India Trade Network

Rangoon had a very low opening day of 4.75-5 crore nett as per early estimates which makes it tough for the film considering this came with the aid of Mahashivatri which helped collections in the North. The film was not expected to open well due to the promos, music and cast but still it should have done more than it has got. The film recorded very low collections all over but the performance in Delhi / UP and East Punjab was better due to Mahashivratri but there is a flip side as these circuits have strong growth on Saturday and now the growth may be less compared to other places due to the bump up in collections on Friday. Mumbai is just a little higher than Delhi / UP when Mumbai should be 50% ahead.

A film like this needs the actor to bring something to the table but the problem here is that Saif Ali Khan has never been much of a draw barring films with the top heroines of the time or double /multiple hero films and Shahid Kapoor has pretty much eroded whatever following he had with the youth with bad films like Haider and Udta Punjab. So when the promos don't appeal and actors have no pulling power you get results like Rangoon. Its just seven weeks and now two big films have disappointing big time in terms of opening, Kaabil and Rangoon. Kaabil may have an excuse as it clashed with Raees but there is no such issue with Rangoon.

There is the weekend still to come and the film may get growth over Saturday and Sunday but it will be a surprise if it gets the growth it needs to comeback into the box office picture again.

I'm back after watching JULIA urF RANGOON 😉

For story, read other reviews.

AMAZING cinematography. 👏 Definitely a front runner for NA next year. Lovely production design, costume and makeup. Background score is effective.

All the three actors give their best. 👏 Saif was very effective in his role as Rusi. Shahid's portrayal of Nawab was sublime. The film however belongs to Julia who gets the meaty part and Kangana displays all the range with finesse as her character comes of age. She's absolutely gorgeous in those costumes. It was very nice to see her in a big canvas film. I do want her to do a SLB extravaganza sometime.😳

Plot and screenplay wise the film could have been better. its a shame considering Vishal spent almost 7-8 years thinking of this film. 🥱He had no excuse for not having enough time to polish the script. The film can be easily trimmed by 15 mins. The supporting cast was first rate. Songs well picturized and flows with the narrative.thankfully they didn't show all the 10 full length songs. 😆

It's definitely a niche film, so I can see its limited commercial appeal. However the theatre where I watched in US, people clapped when the credits rolled. 😲 Pleasantly surprised by the reaction. It made my day after the barbs on IF. 😛

Vishal's direction is good. Decent one time watch for non fans too. 👍🏼

wow

they didn't even mention kangana or her BO pull

and they could have simply said shahid doesn't have the appeal any more or what ever but calling movies like haider and UP bad esp haider which won massive acclaim- they just sound stupid!

movie belongs to one and only...kangs.

and boy she nails it.

vishal's direction loses at times, but kangana keeps it together. kul milla karr..messy direction, messy script, messy screenplay, drags at times, ...but kangs...not messy at all. perfecto!!

shahid is very good too. tho saif is looking really motto and oldie now, but i like his act here. but kangs overshadow all!!

the cinematography is mindblowing and i also enjoyed the songs.

even with so many flaws...i don't regret seeing this on big screen, not at all.

ohhh boy...kangana...phewww...

i give 3/5

there you go.
