The Independence Day holiday seems to have given a boost to the film, and the predictions made by movie business analyst Girish Johar is quite accurate. “Mission Mangal is expected to earn Rs 20 crore plus”, he had told The Quint. “It is first of its kind, revolving around a space mission. Akshay Kumar is headlining it and it has got a great ensemble cast. And it’s backed by R Balki. So the expectations are high. The trailer has been received well. There is a message, there is quirk, and family audiences will find it appealing. It should be option one on the weekend,” Johar had said.
