· Free Press Journal

Anubhav Sinha's Assi, starring Taapsee Pannu and Kani Kusruti, was released on Friday. The makers had shown the film to the media a week prior, and the movie received positive reviews. But, when it comes to box office, Assi has taken a slow start.

According to Sacnilk, the movie collected approximately Rs. 1 crore on its first day, which is surely not a great number. But, content-driven movies usually take a slow start, and with positive reviews and word of mouth, it shows a jump at the box office. So, we can expect the same to happen with Assi.
