Alia Bhatt‘s latest outing, Raazi, which is out in the theatre, is going strong at the ticket counters and has bagged a spot in the top five-weekend grossers of 2018. The film, which also stars Vicky Kaushal in a pivotal role, has struck the right chord with movie buffs. Helmed by Meghna Gulzar, the film is based on a real-life story and Harinder Sikka’s Book Calling Sehmat. In the film, Alia is playing the role of a Kashmiri girl, who is married off to a Pakistani military family.
Alia Bhatt’s film earned Rs 9.45 crore on Wednesday, thus, taking its total collection to Rs 78.33 crore in just six days.

Alia Bhatt is really happy with the kind of response her latest film has received. After the film released, Ms Bhatt was quoted saying, “I didn’t expect this kind of response. Since the beginning, we thought that we were making a small film, so we didn’t feel we would get so much attention and love from the audience.” The film is not doing well just at the domestic markets, it is doing equally well in the international market as well. We are sure the makers of Raazi are really happy with the box-office numbers, as the film was made on a budget of Rs 37 crore, which included COP and P&A. Watch this space for further updates.
