Director Tigmanshu Dhulia's Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster 3 — third film of his Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster franchise — released last week on 27 July but couldn't make an impact at the box-office over the weekend. It has managed to mint only Rs 5.40 crore so far, as reported by The Times of India.
Diljit Dosanjh-starrer Soorma has also earned a decent Rs 30 crore ever since it released on 13 July. The biopic on the Hockey legend Sandeep Singh has brought immense praise to Dosanjh for his portrayal of Singh on screen. The film also stars Taapsee Pannu, Angad Bedi, Vijay Raaz and Kulbhushan Kharbanda. Adarsh tweeted about the box-office collections of Soorma, as of 30 July.
