Shiwani: A Film that Grossed Only Rs 520
The film ‘Shiwani’, released last year, has become the center of attention in the entertainment world due to its reported gross earnings of only Rs 520 for the last financial year, as declared by the Film Development Board earlier this week. The minuscule earnings have sparked a wave of discussion and trolls on social media platforms, with many labeling it as the lowest grossing film in history.
Despite being an unknown film with a cast mostly comprising lesser-known actors, including the exception of Nirmal Sharma, who is also the executive producer and actor of ‘Chhakka Panja 4’, ‘Shiwani’ has gained unexpected popularity. The sudden surge in searches for the film on YouTube has further added to its buzz.
The Film Development Board’s official announcement of the film’s earnings triggered numerous reactions on social media. Many Facebook pages have taken the opportunity to spotlight Nirmal Sharma, sharing the earnings of ‘Shiwani’ along with his picture. Sharma’s association with the successful ‘Chhakka Panja’ franchise has added significance to the discussions.
In response to the social media frenzy, Nirmal Sharma took to Facebook to share a sarcastic comment, expressing his views on the situation. He humorously stated that the film industry often feels sad when other films perform well and happy when they don’t. He further emphasized the need for self-improvement and learning from every experience.
Sharma’s statement has garnered considerable support from fans and colleagues in the film industry. Notably, ‘Chhakka Panja’ producer and actor Deepak Raj Giri expressed his endorsement by liking Sharma’s comment on Facebook.
