Manikarnika started picking up the pace in evening after a dull start. However, there's hope that Republic Day holiday will result in big numbers.''#Manikarnika picked up towards evening, after an ordinary/dull start in morning... #RepublicDay holiday [today] should witness a big turnaround... Sure, there’s appreciation, but it has to convert into footfalls... Fri ₹ 8.75 cr. India biz. #Hindi #Tamil #Telugu,'' wrote Taran Adarsh on Twitter.
Read Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi Review Here:
''The screenplay was too simple and written on the grounds of other Bollywood historical films which we have already watched. A little patchy at some places. Manikarnika's screenplay has nothing new to offer and seems like joining different sequences in the two-and-half-hour movie. Prasoon Joshi has inked the dialogues of periodic drama Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi. There are many dialogues in the film that are little dramatised, however, we should give it to him for not being too overbearing and stoking the right passion for this kind of a film,'' wrote India TV critic.
On a related note, Manikarnika has released alongside Thackeray, which is a biopic on late Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray. Starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Amrita Rao in pivotal roles, the movie has been helmed by Abhijit Panse.
