First Published Jul 21, 2022, 9:28 AM IST

Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra-starrer ‘Hit: The First Case’ seems to be struggling at the box office to collect even Rs 10 crore. Meanwhile, the earnings for ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ also seem to be going down. Read this report to know how films performed at the box office on Wednesday.

Last week saw the release of two films – Taapsee Pannu-starrer ‘Shabaash Mithu’ and Rajkummar and Sanya Malhotra’s film ‘Hit: The First Case’. While Taapsee’s film is a sports biopic based on the life of former Indian women’s cricket captain Mithali Raj, ‘Hit’ is a thriller drama. Both the films have received great reviews for their storyline and plots. However, the films have struggled to make much of an impact at the box office. The two films also faced quite a competition with already running films such as Marvel Studios’ ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ and R Madhavan’s directorial debut ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’. Amidst this, take a look at how all these films performed on Wednesday at the box office.
