Raazi has given full-on competition to all the recent releases be it John Abraham starrer Parmanu or Bioscopewala. The flick based on Calling Sehmat had emerged as the second women-centric film to cross the Rs 100 crore mark.
#Raazi is the second heroine-centric film to cross ₹ 100 cr mark, after #TanuWedsManuReturns... However, #TWMR was a franchise, so it had a huge advantage... #Raazi is the first one to achieve the milestone without the tag of a franchise or commercial trappings... India biz.
