Hichki which also stars Supriya Pilgaonkar and Harsh Mayar, is an adaptation of the book Front of the Class: How Tourette Syndrome Made Me the Teacher I Never Had.
The film has managed to earn rave reviews from the critics from its tight storyline and impeccable performance of Rani Mukerji. The Saathiya actress has been appreciated for her stupendous performance as Naina Mathur, a teacher suffering from Tourette syndrome.
Interestingly, the makers of Hichki have already recovered their investment of Rs 20 crore through satellite, digital and music rights.
What makes #Hichki an OUTRIGHT WINNER is the perfect blend of super content + right economics... While the theatrical biz is going strong, Yash Raj has already recovered *entire* investment <₹ 20 cr> from non-theatrical platforms
