Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway & Zwigato: Was clash of date the cause dull start for the latter| Explained

According to trade experts, Rani Mukerji’s Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway picked up momentum as day one progressed. On the days of the release on Friday, the film made 1.27 crores [535 screens]. On the other hand, Nandita Das’s Zwigato which features Kapil Sharma in the lead role, managed to collect merely 42 lakhs on its opening day on Friday. Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the film’s box office report on Twitter and he wrote: “Released at limited screens [409] and shows, Zwigato puts up a dull score on day one. The word of mouth is positive, but it needs to convert into footfalls over the weekend. Kapil Sharma's _Zwigato_ clashed with Rani Mukerji’s _Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway_ at the box office. The film performed better than Zwigato at the box office and it collected 1.27 crore on Friday. Both are small budget films. But the buzz around Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway was way more than Zwigato. Most importantly because the story was based on the real life struggles of a mother, Sagarika Chakraborty to get her children back. Though both the stories of the films were promising, but the story of _Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway_ reached more people because of the popularity of the incident which happened in Norway when a young couple’s children were snatched away from her on grounds of bad parenting. Filmmaker Ashima Chibber’s movie Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway starring Rani Mukerji revolves around a mother’s fight for her two young children who were literally snatched away from her on the grounds of bad parenting by the Norway Children’s Welfare Program. From real to real, Rani Mukerji’s Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway touches the heart of all. Debika Chatterjee (Rani Mukerji) was labelled not only as mentally unfit by the Norwegian government, but she was also called a bad, careless and irresponsible mother. Inspired by the real life case of Sagarika Chakraborty and based on her autobiography, The Journey of a Mother, which tells the true tale of an Indian couple whose children were separated from them by the Norwegian Childcare system (Barnevernet) in 2011. Since it is based on a true story, there are many mothers who can relate to this. The story of _Mrs Chaterjee Vs Norway_ is extremely compelling. Sagarika Chatterjee is a woman who stood up against the government of Norway to fight for the right to be reunited with her children after they were taken away from her and placed in foster care and were told that they will not be returned until the age of 18. The performance of  Rani Mukerji  in  _Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway_  has been inspired by the real-life happenings of a woman named Sagarika Chakraborty, who went through similar struggles when her children were taken away from her.
