This Friday (July 15) saw two much-awaited movies being released on the big screens. One was the Rajkummar Rao starrer HIT: The First Case while the other was Taapsee Pannu’s sports biographical drama Shabaash Mithu. On their second day today (July 17), while Rajkummar’s movie has shown a massive improvement, Taapsee’s film is, unfortunately, struggling to perform.

Since the Pandemic, people had their reservations to watch serious, crime thrillers in theatres. As the general perception was that Only commercial entertainers will work in cinemas. And the films were not showing a big jump on day 2, However, HIT: The First Case broke all the stereotypes and post its release on Friday, the film saw a huge jump of 65% over the weekend. 

The movie follows the beats of the Telugu original, but suffers on account of its hazy chronology and ludicrous ending

Hit: The First Case & Shabaash Mithu have proven to be slow starters at the box office.

I use mystery and suspense here interchangeably. Mystery, of course, refers to a puzzle that needs to be solved. The suspense gets created from the audience wondering what will happen next. HIT: The First Case, remake of director Sailesh Kolanu’s Telugu film of the same name, is decidedly more a mystery
