Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, Rangoon, set against the backdrop of World War II, has finally hit the screens on February 24, this year. The film stars Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan in the lead roles. While Kangana plays the role of Julia, Shahid is seen as Nawab Malik. Saif portrays the character of Rusi Billimoria in the film. 

Contrary to all the hype before its release, Rangoon has relatively opened on a low note on Day 1. The film collects INR 5 crore on its first day. While the production numbers say that the film has earned INR 6.07 crore on Day 1. But, Rangoon has been basking in good reviews from the critics and viewers alike. Kangana's stellar performance has been the highlight of the film. Fans are also appreciating Shahid for his role. 

The opening day collection have been less, but positive word-of-mouth might get the movie to mint more money on Saturday and Sunday. The film released in 1800 screens across the country and has reportedly been made with a budget of INR 80 crore. Will the film be able to cover up and get profit? The film even has the benefit as no big releases are there in the coming week. 

Yesterday was Mahashivratri and that might have been the reason of low occupancy rate in the morning shows, but it did pick up in the evening shows. 

Recently, the movie also made headlines also landed when Roy Wadia claimed that Kangana's character Julia is based on Fearless Nadia from the film Hunterwali.
