Ikkis Sees 400% Box Office Jump
The movie Ikkis has a character named Brigadier Jaan Mohammad Nisar, a Pakistani soldier played by Jaideep Ahlawat.
The makers added a disclaimer saying that Nisar's kind behavior is an exception, and they believe Pakistan is not trustworthy.
They mentioned that Pakistan's forces have been cruel to Indian soldiers and civilians.
The movie has gotten good reviews but initially had a lukewarm response at the box office.
However, on the third day, it saw a 400% jump in collections, earning Rs.
4.65 crore.
The total collection in India is now Rs.
15.15 crore, and overseas it has earned Rs.
1.75 crore, making the worldwide total around Rs.
19.75 crore.
People are talking about it online, and some think it's because of the actor's popularity.
Some people think the disclaimer makes sense because of past wars, but others think it contradicts the movie's anti-war message.

- The humane behaviour of Pakistani Brigadier K. M. Sisar is only an exceptional incident. Otherwise, our neighbouring country is not trustworthy at all. Pakistan’s armies, both during war and in times of peace, have behaved very cruelly and inhumanely with our soldiers and citizens. In torturing them, they have repeatedly and openly violated the Geneva Convention. Considering the terrorist activities sponsored by Pakistan, as responsible citizens, we must always remain alert and prepared. Jai Hind.
