The Story in Brief
'Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata', the Kangana Ranaut-starrer based on the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, will stream on Zee5 from August 15. Manoj Tapadia directed the film, which released in theatres on June 12 to favourable reviews but collected only Rs 7.04 crore net in India and Rs 8.32 crore worldwide, according to Sacnilk.
The film highlights the courage of nurses, ward boys and hospital staff at Cama and Albless Hospital who protected patients during the attacks. Ranaut, who also produced the film, said the story of these healthcare workers deserved to be told. Zee5 released a new trailer announcing the digital premiere.
The Indian Opinion
Many expected a Kangana Ranaut film to spark box office wars, but this one quietly earned less than Rs 10 crore. The narrative that her politics alone determines a film's fate ignores simple facts: the subject is niche, reviews were good, and the audience may prefer watching such stories at home. Now streaming could find the viewers it missed in theatres. The real test: will it trend on Zee5 or vanish quietly? A number on opening weekend will tell.
