The title which clashed with the anticipated releases of Katrina Kaif starrer ‘Phone Bhoot’ and ‘Double XL’ featuring Huma Qureshi and Sonakshi Sinha, started off on a dismal note and could only manage to amass INR45-65 lacs on the launching day, as per the trade reports from Indian outlets.
Struggling to touch the 1 crore mark against the massive budget of INR30 crore, the ticket sales for ‘Mili’ on day 2 added some INR60 lacs more to the total collection of the film. The film concluded the debut weekend at the Box Office with INR1.77 crore in the gross collection.
About the film, ‘Mili’ – a survival thriller is the Hindi remake of the Malayalam film ‘Helen’, based on real-life events.
