Looking at the current scenario, we can expect Mission Raniganj to end its theatrical run around Rs 17-18 crore.

For the unversed, _Mission Raniganj_ is inspired by Jaswant Singh Gill, the man who saved the miners from Mahabir Colliery in Raniganj, West Bengal on the night of November 13, 1989. The film also features Parineeti Chopra, Kumud Mishra, Pavan Malhotra, Ravi Kishan, Varun Badola, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Rajesh Sharma, Virendra Saxena, Shishir Sharma, Ananth Mahadevan, Jameel Khan, Sudhir Pandey, Bachan Pachera, Mukesh Bhatt, and Omkar Das Manikpuri. Talking about the review, Firstpost gave the film 3 stars and wrote, “The movie rightfully highlighted how life of the proletariat class is considered to be nothing as compared to the egos of the big shots in the business. It also highlights how the proletariats are still ignored in India. They go down the dead hole for meagre wages at the risk of their lives and not even a proper medical kit is provided to them. The film also shows corruption at different levels. Leaving aside the drawbacks of the film,  _Mission Raniganj_on the whole is a well-researched film and an engrossing human-drama which needs to be watched.”
